Cybersecurity and Compliance Support (NIST SP 800-171 Assessment)

The contract supports the prime contractor in achieving and maintaining compliance with NIST SP 800-171 standards, focusing on the protection of covered defense information and ensuring audit readiness. This includes implementing required security controls, documenting compliance efforts, and preparing comprehensive submissions for the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) assessment to verify adherence to federal cybersecurity requirements. The work is critical to sustaining the prime contractor’s eligibility for Department of Defense contracts and maintaining trust in the supply chain. Performed under a subcontract within the Defense Logistics Agency’s operations, this effort is classified under NAICS code 541512 for Computer Systems Design Services, indicating a focus on technical and advisory services rather than physical infrastructure. The contractor is responsible for end-to-end compliance support, from control implementation and policy development to evidence collection and final SPRS submission, ensuring the prime contractor remains in good standing with all applicable cybersecurity mandates. All activities are geared toward operational readiness and defense contract continuity, with no geographic restrictions specified for performance.
