As it stands now, DFARS must be flowed down to every supplier.

The government has been holding up shipments from some of the primes until either:
1) They prove 100% compliance or
2) Pay a penalty.

Guess what happens.

As it stands now, DFARS must be flowed down to every supplier.

I'm beginning to see the requirement appear on more and more Purchase Orders.

We already have suppliers of brakes, clutches, motors, synchros and resolvers meeting DFARS.

Of course there are probably 20 countries outside the US that are accepted under the DFARS requirments for specialty metals alone, so it shouldn't be very difficult to conform in this respect.
