The Department of Commerce’s First-of-its-Kind Supply Chain Center

The Supply Chain Center (SCC), which is housed in the Industry and Analysis unit (I&A), is increasing the resilience of select critical supply chains. We are integrating industry expertise and data analytics to develop innovative supply chain risk assessment tools, coordinating case studies on select critical supply chains, and collaborating with international partners on mutual supply chain priorities.

The SCC seeks to be: 

  • Proactive in getting ahead of supply chain challenges. 
  • Strategic in setting priorities for policy action. 
  • A force multiplier in improving the effectiveness of U.S. Government investments. 
  • A partner to industry in building resilient supply chains and supporting U.S. businesses to lead the industries of the future. 

Supply Chain Center Partnerships

Across all that we do, we depend on close partnerships across government, industry, academia, labor, and civil society.

Through the important work of our industry experts across I&A, we are working to gather insights, develop accurate assessments of risks and opportunities, and take targeted and coordinated action to protect and advance U.S. supply chain resiliency and economic competitiveness.  

We have benefitted tremendously from the input of our Advisory Committee on Supply Chain Competitiveness, the President’s Export Council, and other key industry advisors, as well as interagency partners.
