armasuisse is one of four central offices of the Federal Administration for the procurement management of complex and security-relevant systems and goods as well as for technology and real estate management. Competent and customer-oriented, around 1000 employees throughout Switzerland develop tailor-made solutions for military and civilian customers. In its internal cooperation, armasuisse lives a "you" culture.

We are the federal government's competence center for the procurement of complex and security-relevant systems and goods as well as for technology and real estate management.

We train around 20 apprentices in the following professions:

• Management assistant EFZ (with or without vocational baccalaureate as well as apprenticeship and sport)

• Mediamatician EFZ
• Physics laboratory technician EFZ

Apprentices can expect a varied apprenticeship in an exciting environment as well as individual support from motivated and competent vocational and practical trainers.

We combine a wide range of competencies under one roof and thus cover a broad spectrum of services. As one of four federal procurement offices, we work for the Swiss Armed Forces and various other federal administrative units. Our clientele also includes partners in national security cooperation and customers outside the federal government. Our field of activity includes neutral evaluation and timely procurement, the commissioning of maintenance services and the sale or disposal of technologically complex systems and materials. We run a competence center that handles the DDPS's WTO tenders and provide a wide range of scientific and technical services. We also operate the DDPS's real estate management.
