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.
