BSA on Procurement Participation Requirements

'Given the inherently global and interconnected nature of software development and deployment, accurately defining and measuring local content presents unique and significant complexities. Accordingly, we strongly recommend excluding software products and services from the scope of local content requirements for participation in public procurement,' Venkatesh Krishnamoorthy, country manager (India), BSA, said in a letter dated July 10, 2025, to Rajan.
'Failing to consider the specific nature of software products and services and how they are developed and simply treated them as other kinds of goods or services creates unnecessary difficulties in the procurement process for both buyers and sellers of software products and services,' Krishnamoorthy said in the letter.
