SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
DoD, GSA, and NASA are amending
the FAR to add the framework for a new
FAR part 40, which will contain the
policies and procedures for managing
information security and supply chain
security when acquiring products and
services. The creation of this new FAR
part does not implement any of the
policies or procedures related to
managing information security and
supply chain security. The rule simply
establishes the new FAR part.
Relocation of the related existing
policies or procedures will be done
through separate rulemaking.
Currently, the policies and procedures
for prohibitions, exclusions, supply
chain risk information sharing, and
safeguarding information that address
security objectives are dispersed across
multiple parts of the FAR, which makes
it difficult for the acquisition workforce
to locate, understand, and implement
applicable requirements. This new part
will provide contracting officers with a
single, consolidated location in the FAR
that addresses their role in
implementing requirements related to
managing information security and
supply chain security when acquiring
products and services. This is also
helpful to contractors who may want to
review the information security and
supply chain security policies and
procedures in FAR part 40.
This part will provide a location to
cover broad security requirements that
apply across acquisitions. These include
security requirements designed to
bolster national security through the
management of existing or potential
adversary-based supply chain risk
across technological, intent-based, or
economic means (e.g., cybersecurity
supply chain risks, foreign-based risks,
