Cybersecurity Compliance and SPRS Reporting

This contract requires comprehensive cybersecurity compliance support for subcontractors managing Controlled Unclassified Information, specifically aligned with NIST SP 800-171 requirements. The scope includes conducting thorough system assessments to evaluate adherence to security controls, identifying gaps, and implementing corrective measures to meet federal standards. A critical component is the accurate calculation and timely submission of the SPRS score, which serves as the official metric for demonstrating cybersecurity posture to the Department of Defense. The effort is focused on ensuring subcontractors within the Maritime Supply Chain are fully compliant and able to maintain authorization to handle CUI under federal contracting obligations. The solicitation is issued under the NAICS code 541512 for Computer Systems Design Services and is structured as a subcontract under the Department of Defense. The response deadline is set for May 13, 2026, with the solicitation posted on May 8, 2026, indicating a narrow five-day window for submissions. Participation is mandatory for any subcontractor involved in the Maritime Supply Chain handling CUI, and successful compliance directly impacts the prime contractor’s ability to fulfill its own DOD obligations. Failure to submit a valid SPRS score or achieve required compliance levels may result in disqualification from the supply chain or suspension of work authorization.
