Supply Chain Risk Oversight: Insights for Contractors in 2026 (W00c)
Federal contractors face accelerating scrutiny over how they assess, manage, and mitigate supply chain risk. New regulatory updates, acquisition requirements, and evolving C-SCRM standards are reshaping what federal agencies expect from offerors in 2026. As supply chain assurance becomes a key factor in competitive procurements, contractors must demonstrate not only compliance but also maturity, visibility, and the ability to operationalize SCRM across their enterprises.
This talk will cover:
• Recent regulatory changes and their acquisition impacts, including what is required versus recommended for contractors under leading C-SCRM standards and frameworks.
• How organizations can evaluate and communicate their C-SCRM maturity through tools, assessment methodologies, and a real-world case study covering scope definition, data collection, interviews, observations, and actionable recommendations.
• Best practices for designing and maintaining effective C-SCRM plans, along with resources to support ongoing compliance.
