Support for Quantum Supply Chains Act

This bill amends the National Quantum Initiative Act to direct the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to establish partnerships with public and private entities. Specifically, it requires NIST to accelerate domestic development of quantum supply chains and reduce vulnerabilities in these supply chains. The bill also mandates NIST to identify key quantum technologies needed for U.S. competitiveness in quantum science and engineering. These changes directly affect NIST and its partners in the quantum technology sector, focusing on building domestic capabilities rather than creating new funding or regulations.
