A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Supply Chain Risk Management 
(SCRM) Questionnaire.
    OMB Approval Number: 2535-New.
    Type of Request: New collection.
    Form Number: None.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use:
    HUD has implemented a department-wide supply chain risk management 
program. HUD will collect information to evaluate the supply chain risk 
management practices of its current and prospective vendors. In 
compliance with Executive Order 14017, America's Supply Chains; 
Executive Order 14028, Improving the Nation's Cybersecurity; the 
Federal Acquisition Supply Chain Security Act (FASCSA); and 
incorporating guidance published in the National Institute of Standards 
and Technology (NIST) Special Publication (SP) 800-161, Cyber Security 
Supply Chain Risk Management Practices for Systems and Organizations; 
the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has 
implemented a Department-wide supply chain risk management (SCRM) 
program. This initiative will include updated and applicable policy, 
procedures, and documentation that present the structure of the HUD 
SCRM Program and establish the guidance for performing vendor supply 
chain risk assessments. The HUD SCRM Program enables the Department to 
implement executive orders, legal authorities, regulatory orders, and 
federal guidance which includes a consistent process for identifying 
supply chain risk in current and future vendor relationships. As a part 
of this Program, HUD will collect information to evaluate the supply 
chain risk management practices of its current and prospective vendors 
through a HUD SCRM Questionnaire.
