Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, N.J. – The Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) Lab at Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst is a little more than a year old but is already showing a significant impact to supply chain security for the fleet.

One of the SCRM lab’s critical assets is its members’ flexibility to respond to evolving threats. For example, when a system is undergoing an Engineering Change Proposal and engineers look at whether new equipment meets specifications, the SCRM lab evaluates where the equipment hardware and software are coming from and identifies potential vulnerabilities or threats in the supply chain.
