What is ODA (Official Development Assistance)?

Development cooperation is international assistance provided by governments and their related agencies to help developing countries and regions. Public funds for this purpose are called ODA (Official Development Assistance). Governments and their implementing agencies provide funds and technology to developing countries and international organisations to help them develop in order to protect peace and human rights.

What Does SIRIUS Do?

SIRIUS primarily handles equipment procurement for ODA (Official Development Assistance) projects implemented by the Japanese government. We deliver various types of equipment to target countries around the world, including medical devices, scientific analysis instruments, vehicles, and construction machinery.
Through ODA projects, we not only contribute to the benefits of the target countries but also support the international expansion of Japanese companies, facilitating mutual benefits for both the international community and Japan.
In ODA projects, contractors are selected through a bidding process to ensure fairness. SIRIUS participates in publicly announced tenders, and if successful, we fulfill the project contracts.
