Defense supply chain issues, COTS procurement, MOSA, and more

The procurement challenges facing defense technology companies range from a slow U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) acquisition process to supply chain headaches to when and where to leverage commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS)technology and open architectures. In this podcast, Mike McCormack, President & CEO of CP North America and Mark Kempf, VP Of CP technologies & CP Systems at CP North America discuss how those in the defense arena - government and industry - can adapt to these challenges. Also discussed are how these supply chain issues impact military COTS procurement today and reactions to the DoD’s MOSA (modular open systems approach) mandate, recruiting engineering talent, and more.
