Yesterday the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs (OIRA) announced that it had received a copy of a new notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) from DOD on the subject of the detection and
avoidance of counterfeit electronic parts. Apparently this is an additional
part of the implementation of the Congressional mandate on this subject in the 2014
National Defense Authorization Act.
The initial
final rule on this subject was issued last year followed quickly by a
DOD meeting on what additional measures needed to be addressed. This rule
has not been mentioned in the Unified Agenda so there are no publicly available
details about what might be included.
I will note that I am not planning on going into any
detailed analysis of this rule when it comes out as this is not a blog on the
defense acquisition process. I continue to mention these rulemaking actions
since DOD plays a major role in establishing manufacturer requirements in the
electronics industry.
