Saipem maintains a global Approved Vendor List (Saipem AVL) managed from Milan. Indian suppliers register via Saipem's eProcurement portal (SAP SRM) and must provide ISO 9001, API licences, and consent to factory audit. Saipem India Projects Ltd in Chennai is the primary hub for Indian valve RFQs on Asian and African projects; achieving AVL status through Chennai is the most practical route for Indian manufacturers like Vajra Industrial Solutions and can unlock opportunities on Saipem's sub-Saharan Africa, Middle East, and South Asian project pipeline.
