New White House Climate Plan and Related FAR Case

November 14, 2022 - The White House last week proposed a plan to protect the federal supply chain from climate-related risks and a FAR Case is now open for public comments.

NCMA supports efforts to provide more resources and clarity for acquisition professionals from Government and Industry to best meet Presidential Executive Orders and serve the Federal mission. Supply chain resilience is crucial to the delivery of goods and services, and clarity on such rules is essential to business relationships needed to meet the mission.

As a neutral forum for buyers and sellers, NCMA encourages our community to review the plan and the FAR Case to consider response in the open comment period that closes January 13, 2023.

Please contact Kraig Conrad with questions and interest in engaging this topic on behalf of the community.
