Confidentiality qualification of weapon and equipment research and production units for military industry admission qualification
After the Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China put forward the clear requirements of "promoting deep development of military civilian integration" and "guiding advantageous private enterprises to enter the field of military research, production, and maintenance", China's military industry access system has changed accordingly. Many private enterprises want to explore the market in the military industry field, but due to the fact that the military industry is mostly classified, they want to participate in classified military industry projects, It is necessary to obtain the confidentiality qualification of weapon and equipment research and production units.
What are the confidentiality qualifications of weapon and equipment research and production units?
Confidentiality qualification is the evaluation and recognition by the state of the basic confidentiality ability possessed by weapons and equipment research and production units, and is a necessary condition for enterprises and institutions to undertake research and production tasks related to classified weapons and equipment. Starting from July 1, 2021, the confidentiality qualifications of weapon and equipment research and production units will be adjusted to two levels: level one and level two, and new applications for level three confidentiality qualifications will no longer be accepted. Units undertaking top secret scientific research and production tasks shall apply for first-class confidentiality qualifications. Units undertaking confidential or secret level scientific research and production tasks shall apply for second level confidentiality qualifications.
Which units need to apply for the confidentiality qualification of weapon and equipment research and production units?
Enterprises and institutions that undertake or intend to undertake research and production tasks related to classified weapons and equipment shall apply in accordance with the highest level of confidentiality for the weapons and equipment research and production projects or products they undertake or intend to undertake, and obtain the corresponding level of confidentiality qualification for weapons and equipment research and production units after undergoing confidentiality qualification recognition according to certain procedures. However, weapons and equipment development projects or products that are only classified in terms of background, purpose, or quantity, or secret level products that are not listed in the Professional (Product) Catalogue of Weapons and Equipment Research and Production License and have urgent or short-term production requirements, do not fall within the scope of military industry confidentiality qualification recognition and do not need to apply for the confidentiality qualification of weapons and equipment research and production units.
