Fake parts reporting: FAR extends comment deadline
The US government has extending the comment deadline on its proposals to require contractors to report non-conforming components discovered in the supply chain, including counterfeits.
Earlier this year, the US Department of Defense issued a final rule that required certain contractors to detect and report counterfeit electronic parts, and this was swiftly followed by a separate proposal – issued by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Council that would significantly broaden the scope of the reporting requirements.
