HUD will collect vendor supply‑chain information
If you are a current or prospective information and communications technology (ICT) vendor for HUD, HUD will collect information about your supply chain risk management practices through a new HUD SCRM (Supply Chain Risk Management) Questionnaire to evaluate vendor SCRM practices in line with Executive Orders 14017 and 14028, the Federal Acquisition Supply Chain Security Act, and NIST SP 800-161 guidance.
Pre‑award questionnaire: ~4 hours and $184 per vendor
If you respond to HUD's Vendor Pre‑Award Questionnaire, HUD estimates 240 respondents will each spend 4 hours completing it, using an hourly cost of $45.93; that equates to about $183.72 per response and a total annual cost of $44,092.80 for all respondents.
Annual current‑vendor questionnaire: ~2 hours and $92 per vendor
If you are a current HUD ICT vendor, HUD estimates 110 respondents will each spend 2 hours completing an annual Current Vendor Questionnaire, using an hourly cost of $45.93; that equals about $91.86 per response and a total annual cost of $10,104.60 for all respondents.

2026-16228, HUD's Implementation of the Fair Housing Act's Disparate Impact Standard; Amendments to HUD's Title VI Regulations
HUD published a notice of proposed rulemaking in January of 2026 that proposed to remove HUD's disparate-impact regulations and leave interpretation of disparate-impact liability under the Fair Housing Act to the courts. This supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking continues HUD's efforts to remove or revise regulations that prohibit conduct having a disparate impact without evidence of discriminatory intent. Through this rule, HUD is proposing to remove provisions in HUD's Title VI implementing regulations that impose disparate-impact liability on recipients of HUD Federal financial assistance. If finalized, this rule would improve consistency within HUD's own regulations and between HUD's regulations and the Title VI regulations recently revised by the Department of Justice (DOJ). This rule reopens the public comment period of HUD's January 2026 proposed rule on disparate-impact liability; HUD will only consider comments on topics related to this supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking during the reopened comment period.
