Lockheed Martin’s supply‑chain collaboration centers on four pillars—security, joint innovation, sustainability, and supplier diversity—implemented through formal programs such as the Secure Supply Chain (SSC) and Diverse Supplier Program. These mechanisms enable close co‑development of advanced technologies, reduction of cycle time and costs, and ensure defense‑grade cyber‑physical protection. Together with our supply chain partners, we are delivering faster, safer, and more sustainable mission‑critical systems.

Responsible Supply Chain

We focus on maintaining a secure and adaptable supplier network to ensure defense industrial base resiliency and to generate long-lasting, leading opportunities to enhance environmental and social stewardship. 

Lockheed Martin has established sustainable supply chain programs that drive affordability and innovation across our value chain and include responsible and efficient sourcing practices, such as supplier standards, critical materials management and prevention of counterfeit components. We are engaging with our supply base on due diligence and risk mitigation assessments. 

Our supply chain efforts are led by Lockheed Martin Supply Chain and supported by our Sustainability team, with oversight from the chief supply chain officer. To learn more about our sustainable supply chain management and to access available resources, visit our Supplier website.
