The document updates the staffing table of the Ministry of Defense State Enterprise &#8220;Defense Procurement Agency.&#8221; In particular, specific military ranks are established for positions ranging from Program Director to Lead Specialist. This decision provides the legal basis for military service in the specified positions within the Agency&#8217;s structure.<\/p>\n<p>Structurally, the Decree consists of two items: the direct amendment of the List of Positions (approved by Decree No. 126\/2017) and the determination of the effective date. The amendment consists of restating the &#8220;Defense Procurement Agency&#8221; subsection in a new version, which expands the list of positions and assigns maximum military ranks to them. Compared to the previous version, the document details the list of positions that may be occupied by military personnel in the Agency and establishes the corresponding ranks.<\/p>\n<p>The most important provisions for practical application are the definition of maximum military ranks for positions in the Defense Procurement Agency. In particular, the maximum rank of &#8220;Brigadier General&#8221; is established for the position of &#8220;Program Director,&#8221; the rank of &#8220;Colonel&#8221; for heads of departments and deputy heads of directorates, and ranks ranging from &#8220;Lieutenant Colonel&#8221; to &#8220;Captain&#8221; for specialists and analysts. This allows for the legitimate appointment of military personnel to these positions, taking into account their rank and functional duties within the defense procurement system.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zakon.rada.gov.ua\/go\/505\/2026\/ed20260623\"><strong>Full text by link<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Decree amends the list of positions in state bodies and enterprises that may be filled by military personnel.
