The main characteristics used to describe supplier companies are their number and the amount of the department's purchases by business category.
Since the DSCR allows for the regionalization of suppliers, the concepts of number of companies, amount of purchases and "regional jobs" are also used.

Defence supplier companies are studied according to their INSEE category : microenterprises (micro), small and medium-sized enterprises (MSE), mid-sized companies (MSC), large companies (LC).
