Cybersecurity and CUI Safeguarding Services

The contract requires the implementation and ongoing maintenance of NIST SP 800-171 security controls to safeguard Controlled Unclassified Information within systems handling Department of Defense data. This includes establishing technical, administrative, and physical safeguards aligned with the NIST framework to ensure compliance and reduce the risk of data exposure or unauthorized access. The contractor is responsible for conducting regular assessments to evaluate the effectiveness of these controls and identifying any gaps or deficiencies that could compromise the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of CUI. The contractor must promptly report all identified deficiencies to the DoD CIO and take corrective actions to resolve them within specified timelines. This engagement is a subcontract under the Defense Logistics Agency, focused on cybersecurity services for a DoD environment, and operates under NAICS code 541512 for computer systems design services. Performance is expected to occur across DoD-affiliated locations without a designated physical address, and the work is critical to supporting federal cybersecurity mandates and ensuring readiness across defense supply chain systems.
