Defense Acquisition 2020
Key topics will include: Export controls and international regulations (ITAR, EAR, ECR, Dual-Use, the Wassenaar Arrangement), emerging and foundational technologies, updates in the field of compliance, cyber security measures and much more! With joint-ventures between international agencies and militaries becoming the norm, it is vital that senior leaders and decision makers meet to optimise the ways they can work together to streamline trade and share best policies for conducting business, whilst securing information and data.
The United States sells more than $55 billion worth of defense articles and services annually to foreign governments to advance U.S. security and economic interests. Such purchases are managed primarily through the Foreign Military Sales program (FMS), through which the U.S. government procures defense articles as an intermediary for foreign partners. This adds value for customers by ensuring that they have the same contract benefits and protections that apply to the U.S. military’s acquisition of its own defense articles and services. In turn, the U.S. benefits from a government-to-government relationship in the sale intended to comply with U.S. foreign and security policy, as well as to help ensure militarily interoperable weapons systems among allies and partners.
