Securing America's Defense Supply Chains and Ensuring Domestic Acquisition of Critical Materials

This executive order tightens restrictions on defense supply chain waivers under 10 U.S.C. 4872, requiring domestic or allied sourcing of critical materials for military equipment. It mandates comprehensive supply chain mapping, accelerates domestic source qualification, and establishes mitigation plan requirements for any remaining waivers, with most provisions taking effect January 1, 2027 or within 90-180 days of signing.
