OUR COMPANY

A 100% Filipino Company, United Defense Manufacturing Corp. (UDMC) is engaged in two strategic business units. Both SBU’s are engaged in the sales and distribution of defense equipment to the military and law enforcement agencies.

UDMC manufactures calibers 5.56mm assault rifles and 7.62mm sniper rifles both in NATO standards. Their M110 rifle is available in semi-automatic sniper system (SASS) using premium match barrels produced in the Philippines from Bergara barrel blanks in SS-410. Their M4 rifles come in semi and full automatic modes whose barrels are equivalent to MIL STD B-11595E.

UDMC holds three (3) patents for the unique design of their Philippine-manufactured assault rifles and precision rifles in gas-piston technology, an improvement over the stoner-designed direct gas impingement system. UDMC has recently introduced the Bergara bolt action rifles in calibers 7.62 NATO and 6.5mm Creedmoor made in Spain by Dikar S. Coop. Bergara.

UDMC represents foreign manufacturers in promoting and distributing their defense articles in the Philippines for military and law enforcement use. Such articles are ammunitions, night fighting systems, force protection systems, and other defense articles. UDMC has a wealth of experience in government tenders and is an expert in the procurement law and procurement processes of the Philippine Government under R.A. 9184 and its implementing rules and regulations.

CORE VALUES

Our organization will embrace a culture that is FORWARD-LOOKING, RESOURCEFUL, INNOVATIVE, and RESULTS-ORIENTED.

Partnership with our Principals, Dealers, and other Stakeholders will be a key ingredient in improving business results.

We will create a work environment where our employees will be FLEXIBLE, can have the INITIATIVE to share their ideas, ACCEPT NEW RESPONSIBILITIES (not in their job description), assert their opinions, harness their potentials for PERSONAL ADVANCEMENT, sharpen their skills, and be MULTI-TASKING in the workplace. Our employees will be treated fairly and listened to in an OPEN COMMUNICATION atmosphere as they share in the pursuit of the company’s VISION and CORE VALUES.

We are proud of our Filipino spirit of “MALASAKIT” which expresses mutual respect and concern for our  Co-Employees, Customers, Principals, Dealers, and other Stakeholders. This spirit of concern and ownership of one’s work is leveraged on the employee’s sense of PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for his job, family expectations, and the company’s social responsibility as a whole. There will be no room for “crab mentality” and professional jealousies throughout the organization. Inter-personal relationships shall be based on the pursuit of the company’s VISION, MISSION, and CORE VALUES rather than on friendships in the workplace.

Our organization will stand out because of our PASSION FOR EXCELLENCE in achieving our goals. This COLLABORATION flows from our employees’ PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY to excel in their individual work and commitment to the SUCCESS OF THEIR CO-EMPLOYEES in the spirit of TEAMWORK. This is also reinforced by initiative, sincerity, trust, and respect for diversity in perspective and openness to persuasion.

We will be ENTREPRENEURIAL as a potent tool in gaining the competitive edge in our business, and to meet expectations of all our Principals, Dealers, and other Stakeholders. This type of LEADERSHIP will be reflected in our INNOVATION in work approach, OWNERSHIP of our actions, and hands-on URGENCY in achieving day-to-day results without losing sight of our STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS.

We shall take pride in our INTEGRITY which results from high ethical standards in conducting our business.

We will endeavor our very best to communicate our expectations and inspire adherence to these core values and standards throughout our organization.
