JOSCAR
Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register
JOSCAR
JOSCAR is the Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register used by the Aerospace, Defence, and Security sectors to assess and pre-qualify suppliers.
It provides a centralised system where organisations can demonstrate compliance, capability, and credibility to major buying organisations.
For many businesses, JOSCAR registration is a requirement set by Primes and Tier 1 suppliers before they will even consider engaging, helping them reduce risk and ensure confidence across their supply chain.
Who it applies to
JOSCAR is designed for organisations supplying into Aerospace, Defence, and Security sectors, including manufacturers, distributors, and service providers. It applies to businesses of all sizes that want to be visible, credible, and eligible to work with major buying organisations - particularly those operating in regulated or high-risk environments.
What it focuses on
Business credibility and organisational information; quality, environmental, and security controls; supply chain and supplier management; risk management and compliance; ethical standards and corporate responsibility; financial and operational stability.
Why businesses come to us
Most businesses come to us after being told they need JOSCAR registration to move forward with a customer or aerospace opportunity. The challenge is understanding what’s actually being asked for, ensuring the information provided is accurate and aligned, and avoiding delays or rejections that slow down commercial progress.
Our approach
We support you through the JOSCAR process by aligning your existing systems, documentation, and controls with what is being requested - not creating unnecessary work. That means preparing accurate submissions, strengthening areas where needed, and ensuring your responses reflect how your business actually operates. Our consultants understand both the expectations of buying organisations and the realities of running a business, helping you complete registration efficiently and position yourself for approval.
