Extension on Feedback Requested! NIST IR 8536, Supply Chain Traceability: Manufacturing Meta-Framework
The comment period for NIST IR 8536, Supply Chain Traceability: Manufacturing Meta-Framework has been extended through October 3, 2025.
We thank everyone who submitted comments on the initial draft. Your thoughtful feedback prompted substantial revisions. In response, we published this second draft to provide an opportunity for further review and input before finalizing the report.
This paper presents a framework to improve traceability across complex and distributed manufacturing ecosystems. It enables structured recording, linking, and querying of traceability data across trusted repositories. This initial research is intended to explore approaches that may support stakeholders in verifying product provenance, meeting contractual obligations, and assessing supply chain integrity.
This framework builds on previous NIST research (NIST IR 8419) and incorporates insight and feedback from industry, standards bodies, and academia. It is designed to enhance national security, economic resilience, and supply chain risk management, particularly across manufacturing and other critical infrastructure sectors.
The public comment period for this draft is open through October 3, 2025. Visit the project page for a copy of the draft and instructions for submitting comments. We value and welcome your input and look forward to your comments.
