Cybersecurity Compliance & CMMC Level 2 Implementation

The contract requires full implementation of Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 compliance, with a strong focus on aligning systems and processes with NIST Special Publication 800-171 to safeguard Controlled Unclassified Information as mandated by DFARS 252.204-7012. The effort involves conducting a thorough self-assessment to validate adherence to all required security controls, documenting compliance evidence, and implementing necessary technical and procedural safeguards to protect sensitive data throughout its lifecycle. The work is scoped to ensure the contractor’s environment meets CMMC Level 2 requirements without external auditing, placing responsibility on the subcontractor to achieve and maintain compliance internally. The subcontract is tied to the Department of Defense’s New Cumberland facility, with performance expected to occur at or in support of the 17070-5002 zip code location. It falls under NAICS code 541512 for Computer Systems Design Services and is intended for a subcontractor supporting federal cybersecurity obligations. The solicitation was posted on July 5, 2026, with responses due by July 16, 2026, indicating a narrow timeframe for submission and evaluation. The contractor must be prepared to demonstrate operational readiness and governance structures capable of sustaining ongoing compliance, as failure to meet these standards could impact eligibility for future DoD work and violate federal contract requirements.
