From Compliance to Defense: Defining Department of War Requirements for Vendor Vetting

Every federal contract demands more than simply completing the assigned work—it requires taking additional responsibility to safeguard national interests and ensure security throughout the process.

Adversaries are infiltrating U.S. supply chains through covert capital, hidden ownership, and shell companies, opening pathways to sensitive technology, critical infrastructure, and mission-essential operations. Staying ahead of these threats requires intelligence-driven vendor vetting that moves at the speed of operations.

Our latest white paper, “From Compliance to Defense: Defining Department of War Requirements for Vendor Vetting,” reveals how Babel Street transforms vendor due diligence from a compliance exercise into an active line of defense. Discover how to:

  • Expose Adversary Pathways: Uncover hidden foreign ownership, layered shell companies, and covert influence designed to evade traditional vetting.
  • Gain Operational Speed and Decision Advantage: Use AI-driven analytics and multilingual intelligence to shrink review cycles from months to days while delivering actionable insights at mission tempo.
  • Implement Continuous Threat Monitoring: Safeguard supply chains through persistent vetting and real-time risk alerts across every stage of the contract lifecycle.
  • Ensure Defensible, Evidence-Based Assessments: Align every evaluation with NDAA Sections 841–843, 847, and Department of War policy for audit-ready, defensible decisions.
