The contract requires technical support for IT systems that process, store, or transmit classified information, with strict adherence to the handling procedures outlined in Alternate I – CLASSIFIED INFORMATION – CLEARED CONTRACTORS (NOV 2021). All personnel must hold appropriate security clearances and follow established protocols for safeguarding sensitive data, including secure access controls, encrypted communications, and physical and digital security measures in compliance with federal standards. The work is performed entirely within a classified environment and demands continuous monitoring for compliance, incident response readiness, and audit preparedness. This is a subcontract under the Department of Justice’s Office Acquisition Management, with performance based in Sterling, Virginia, 20166. The solicitation was posted on July 28, 2026, and responses are due by August 4, 2026. The NAICS code 541512 classifies this as Computer Systems Design and Related Services, indicating the scope centers on operational support rather than hardware procurement or development. No set-aside provisions apply, and participation is limited to cleared contractors capable of meeting rigorous security requirements without exceptions. All activities must align with federal regulations governing classified systems, and failure to maintain compliance may result in immediate termination and legal consequences.
