In Plain English

Your procurement and acquisition processes must be designed to identify and mitigate supply chain risks. This means using contract clauses, vendor vetting, procurement policies, and evaluation methods that specifically address supply chain security -- not just price and functionality.

On-premises implementation and evidence

Secure acquisition strategies and procurement

Implementation steps

  1. Document acquisition strategies that require supply chain risk assessment as part of procurement decisions for critical components
  2. Include supply chain security clauses in all contracts for critical hardware, software, and services
  3. Implement component authenticity verification procedures (e.g., checking serial numbers, requesting certificates of authenticity, SBOM review)
  4. Periodically review procurement processes to ensure supply chain risk mitigation methods remain effective
