Guidance on Section 889
requirements and compliance
as it applies to supply chain risk

All US government contractors are now required to represent that they and their supply chain do not use banned telecommunication or video surveillance products in compliance with Section 889B of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This also applies to power utilities who provide power to military bases and other government installations.
