Notice of Request for Public Comments on Risks in the Information Communications Technology Supply Chain

On February 24, 2021, President Biden issued Executive Order 14017 (E.O. 14017) on "America's Supply Chains," which directs several federal agency actions to secure and strengthen America's supply chains. One of these directions is for the Secretary of Commerce and the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the heads of appropriate agencies, to submit, within one year of the date of E.O. 14017, a report on supply chains for critical sectors and subsectors of the information and communications technology (ICT) industrial base (as determined by the Secretary of Commerce and the Secretary of Homeland Security), including the industrial base for the development of ICT software, data, and associated services. This notice requests comments and information from the public to assist the Secretary of Commerce and the Secretary of Homeland Security in preparing the report required by E.O. 14017.
