As the U.S. Department of Defense prepares for expanded DFARS sourcing requirements beginning January 1, 2027, supply-chain transparency and material traceability are more important than ever.
At Arnold Magnetic Technologies, our Global Sourcing and Trade Compliance teams are proactively working with critical suppliers to strengthen upstream material provenance, documentation, and traceability.
Our focus extends beyond where materials are purchased to understanding where raw materials originate and where critical processing steps including mining, separation, refining, and magnet manufacturing occur.
Our goal is simple: when customers need documentation to support their DFARS and U.S. Government compliance obligations, Arnold aims to have reliable, verifiable information ready, not begin searching for it after the request.
By taking action today, we are helping build a more transparent, resilient, and secure rare earth supply chain for tomorrow's mission-critical applications.
