preparedness. The authorities provided in the Act shall
be used to strengthen this base and to ensure it is
capable of responding to all threats to the national
security of the United States.
Sec. 103. General Functions. Federal departments and

industrial resources needed to support defense
acquisition) shall:
(a) Identify requirements for the full spectrum of
national security emergencies, including military,
industrial, and essential civilian demand;
(b) Assess continually the capability of the
domestic industrial and technological base to satisfy
requirements in peacetime and times of national
emergency, specifically evaluating the availability of
adequate industrial resource and production sources,
including subcontractors and suppliers, materials,
skilled labor, and professional and technical
personnel;
(c) Be prepared, in the event of a potential threat
to the security of the United States, to take actions
necessary to ensure the availability of adequate
industrial resources and production capability,
including services and critical technology for national
defense requirements;
(d) Improve the efficiency and responsiveness, to
defense requirements, of the domestic industrial base;
and
(e) Foster cooperation between the defense and
commercial sectors for research and development and for
acquisition of materials, components, and equipment to
enhance industrial base efficiency and responsiveness.
Sec. 104. Implementation. (a) The National Security
Council is the principal forum for consideration and
resolution of national security resource preparedness
policy.
