AI Summary

This bill directs the Secretary of Defense to establish a framework to consolidate information relating to risks to the defense supply chain. The framework would enable Department-wide risk assessments and the development of strategies to mitigate those risks. It would require the collection and management of data from the Department's supply chain risk management processes, the dissemination of reports on supply chain risk management, and the analysis of information to identify risks, assess foreign adversary capabilities, analyze the U.S. industrial base, track global technology trends, and assess emerging threats. The bill also requires the Secretary to issue guidance on mitigating risks to the defense supply chain and provides definitions for key terms like "covered application" and "high-risk subcontractors."
