The scope is focused on safeguarding CUI across all applicable platforms, ensuring compliance with federal standards even when systems are not owned or operated by the government. This is a subcontract under the Defense Logistics Agency, part of the Department of Defense, classified under NAICS code 541350 for computer systems design and related services. The contract was posted on July 21, 2026, and places full responsibility on the subcontractor to meet all NIST 800-171 requirements without reliance on federal infrastructure. There is no specified place of performance or set-aside designation, indicating flexibility in execution location but no reserved status for small or disadvantaged businesses. Compliance is non-negotiable and must be sustained throughout the contract term to maintain the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive defense-related data.
