Background
Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA), Govemment of lndia is the
Nodal Ministry for all matters related to the civil Aviation in the country.
It is responsible for formulation of national policies and programmes for
the development and regulation of the civil aviation sector in the country'
The iricliaii civil Aviation sector is on the cusp of a transformation

an alignmet-rt of policy' drivers, industrl, r-uaturitl' atrd tnanpo\,el'
development. Of these. Manpou'er development is seett as a critical
factor that could mal<e or break the case fot'the sectol'' s transformation. lt
is estirlated that by 2032 the passengel' trafllc is expected to increase by
4.3 times, cargo traffic b1' 6.9 times atrd general aviatiot] traffic by 2'3
times from the l2ti' Five Year Plan levels. The forecast suggests a lobust
growth of the sectol and its in-rplied demand on skilled human resources
to upgrade and operate the ir-rfi'astructure acl"oss segments such as airlines,
cargo, aitporls, MROs, Aerospace manufacturing etc' The lndustry
soufces emphasise that the lack of availability of skilled and quality
manpower across levels has affected their existing opefations and
expansion plans. If the matters do not improve there will be a
considerable cumulative shortfall of skilled staff at all levels severely
curtaining the expected groMh of the sector and also lndian Economy'

to the safe and smooth functioning ofthe Sector.
2.

with remedial measures.
Accordingly, MOCA, invites Request for Quotation (RFQ-for short)
