The government has approved a scoring system for assessing the level of localization in shipbuilding. A similar system was previously launched in the automotive industry.
A scoring system for assessing the level of localization in the shipbuilding industry will begin to operate in Russia. The decision was approved by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. The adopted decision will help form a flexible system for assessing the level of localization, stimulate the processes of import substitution and the development of the industry.
The methodology approved by the resolution makes it possible to determine which products can be considered Russian. This is an important factor, since a high level of localization gives shipbuilders access to state support tools, including targeted subsidies.
As part of a new approach to determining the level of localization of each category of components score is assigned. At the same time, its value is determined in proportion to the cost and complexity of the equipment. Shipbuilders, in turn, can independently decide how to combine parts so that the ship is highly rated and recognized as Russian.
The regulation provides for increased localization requirements as the production of components grows . For example, until June 30, 2023, in order to receive state support for the construction of a hovercraft, you must score at least 1950 points, from July 1, 2023 – 2200 points, from July 1, 2025 – 2550 points.
