Cybersecurity and CUI Safeguarding Support

The contract requires the implementation and ongoing maintenance of NIST SP 800-171 standards to ensure the proper safeguarding of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) within all systems and processes. Compliance with DFARS 252.204-7012 is mandatory, meaning the contractor must establish and enforce security controls that protect CUI from unauthorized access, disclosure, or compromise, while also documenting and demonstrating adherence through policies, training, and audit readiness. This work is critical to fulfilling Department of Defense contractual obligations and must be sustained throughout the lifecycle of the subcontract to maintain eligibility for future DLA-related activities. The subcontract falls under NAICS code 541512 for Computer Systems Design Services and is managed by the Defense Logistics Agency under the Department of Defense. While the specific location of performance is not detailed, the work is expected to occur in alignment with federal cybersecurity mandates and may involve system assessments, control mapping, incident response planning, and continuous monitoring. The contract was posted in June 2026 and is part of a broader effort to harden the defense supply chain against cyber threats, with all activities centered on securing CUI to meet regulatory and operational requirements set forth by federal cybersecurity frameworks.
