The Securing America's Federal Equipment Supply Chains Act, or SAFE Supply Chains Act, aims to enhance the security of the Department of Defense's (DoD) information and communications technology (ICT) supply chain. This legislation mandates that the DoD procure and use covered ICT products exclusively from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) or their authorized resellers , prohibiting procurement from other sources. A "covered product" includes ICT end-use hardware and its associated software, while an "authorized reseller" has direct contractual authority from the OEM. The Secretary of Defense may grant waivers to this prohibition if necessary for scientifically valid research or to avoid jeopardizing mission-critical functions. Such waivers require detailed notice to congressional defense committees, including justification, security mitigations, and a declaration that the product is not from an entity controlled by a foreign adversary. The bill also requires annual reports to Congress for six years, detailing waivers granted and the Department's efforts to achieve full compliance with these procurement restrictions.
