FAR 4.2302 Sharing supply chain risk information.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This section requires executive agencies to share relevant supply chain risk information with the FASC when they determine there is a reasonable basis to conclude a substantial supply chain risk exists involving a source or covered article. It also directs contracting officers to work with the program office or requiring activity, following agency procedures, to share information about actual or potential supply chain risk identified during the procurement process. For contractors, this means supply chain risk information gathered during a procurement may be shared within the government.

Applies to: Executive agencies and contracting officers

What it requires

  • Executive agencies must share relevant supply chain risk information with the FASC when a reasonable basis to conclude a substantial supply chain risk exists
  • The contracting officer must work with the program office or requiring activity in accordance with agency procedures to share relevant information on actual or potential supply chain risk found during the procurement process
