No. 8. Building Industrial Resilience with a Little Help from Our Friends: Adapting DoD Acquisition Processes to Facilitate Allied and Partner Engagement

This paper outlines specific measures that the Department of Defense and Congress can undertake to help build U.S. industrial resilience through close cooperation with allies and partners. This white paper is particularly timely given the White House Supply Chain 100-day report in response to EO 14017, “America’s Supply Chain,” which came out last week. The report emphasizes the importance of working with U.S. allies and partners, “The United States cannot address its supply chain vulnerabilities alone...We must work with America’s allies and partners to strengthen our collective supply chain resilience...” this white paper outlines some proposals to do just that.
