Earlier this week, the Department of Defense (War) announced plans to significantly remake how it will purchase goods and services from government contractors in its Acquisition Transformation Strategy (the Strategy). Central to these reforms will be the use of portfolio management to break down the walls within the Pentagon.
Defense contractors received some clarity into the shutdown plans for the Department of Defense/War (Department) when the Department released a memo outlining its contingency plans during this lapse in funding.
After years of starts and stops, the United States Department of Defense (DoD) has finished its roll-out of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program with the release of its implementing regulations. This program, first proposed about seven years ago, requires contractors to verify compliance with existing cybersecurity requirements through self-assessments, third-party certifications, or DoD-led reviews.
