Cybersecurity Compliance for Covered Defense Information

The contract requires the implementation of NIST SP 800-171 controls to safeguard covered defense information and ensure full compliance with mandatory cyber incident reporting obligations. This subcontract, issued under the Department of Defense, is specifically tied to the NAICS code 541512 and mandates that all cybersecurity measures align with federal standards to protect sensitive information handled in support of defense operations. The place of performance is established at New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, with a ZIP code of 17070-5002, indicating the physical or operational location where the work must be executed. The solicitation was posted on July 30, 2026, and responses are due by August 10, 2026, leaving a narrow window for qualified contractors to submit proposals. The contract falls under the broader scope of defense supply chain security, emphasizing the need for rigorous adherence to NIST guidelines and timely reporting of any cybersecurity incidents that could compromise protected data. Although no set-aside type is specified, the requirement is non-negotiable for subcontractors engaging with the Land Supplier Operations Vehicle Support organization, and failure to meet these standards may result in non-compliance penalties or contract termination.
