Cybersecurity Compliance and CUI Handling

All systems handling Controlled Unclassified Information must fully comply with the cybersecurity requirements outlined in NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2, with mandatory implementation of security controls covering access, audit, configuration, and incident response. Contractors are required to conduct a thorough self-assessment of their compliance posture and submit documented results as part of contract fulfillment, ensuring all systems are configured to protect CUI from unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration. Any security incident involving CUI must be reported immediately according to specified protocols, and corrective actions must be taken without delay to maintain compliance. This subcontract is issued under the Department of Defense’s SUBSISTENCE FSE SUPPLY CHAIN and falls under NAICS code 541512 for computer systems design services. The opportunity was posted on May 6, 2026, with a strict response deadline of May 12, 2026, and performance is expected to occur across unspecified locations under the Defense Logistics Agency’s procurement framework. Bidders must demonstrate proven capability in implementing and maintaining NIST 800-171 Rev 2 controls, with a focus on continuous monitoring, documentation, and rapid incident handling to meet federal cybersecurity standards for CUI environments.
