Cybersecurity Compliance & NIST SP 800-171 Implementation

The contract requires the implementation of NIST SP 800-171 security controls to safeguard covered defense information within the subcontractor’s systems and processes. This includes establishing, documenting, and enforcing a comprehensive set of cybersecurity measures aligned with federal standards, ensuring that all applicable controls are fully operational and continuously monitored. A critical component involves the development and maintenance of a Plan of Action and Milestones to address any remaining security gaps, track progress toward full compliance, and provide regular updates to meet regulatory expectations. Additionally, the subcontractor must be fully prepared to meet cyber incident reporting requirements, including timely detection, response, and reporting of any security breaches or anomalies involving covered defense information. This readiness includes having established procedures, trained personnel, and documented workflows to ensure compliance with federal incident reporting timelines and protocols. The work falls under NAICS code 541512 and is issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the Department of Defense, though specific performance location and point of contact details are not provided. The contract is structured as a subcontract with no set-aside designation and was posted for potential bids in August 2026.
