Update on U.S. Government: China Procurement Policy and Supply Chain National Security Policy
Heightened U.S. scrutiny of China-related sourcing and trade flows is reshaping compliance expectations for government contractors. Recent actions on information and communications technology or services (ICTS), import security, tariff policy, and supply chain ownership rules reflect a broader push to safeguard federal supply chains and reduce reliance on high-risk sources. As these developments evolve, now is an ideal time for contractors to reassess their exposure, strengthen internal controls, and ensure alignment with federal procurement requirements.
This Boot Camp will review:
-
Key ICTS and import security developments and what they mean for contractor sourcing, subcontractor management, and federal supply chain compliance;
-
Current tariff actions and how they may impact procurement strategies, cost structures, and contract performance;
-
Suspension of the U.S. Department of Commerce “Affiliates Rule” – expanding export controls on certain Chinese entities – and impact on due diligence requirements; and
-
How the recent U.S.-China trade deal may impact various policy and regulatory requirements related to trade and national security.
