NIST SP 800-171 Compliance and Assessment Support

The contract provides third-party support to ensure compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and DFARS 252.204-7012 requirements, focusing on system assessment, documentation, and incident reporting for protected information systems. The work is performed under a subcontract and is tied to the Defense Logistics Agency within the Department of Defense, targeting organizations that handle controlled unclassified information and must demonstrate adherence to federal cybersecurity standards. The service includes evaluating existing systems against the NIST framework, developing or refining documentation to meet regulatory obligations, and establishing processes for timely detection, reporting, and response to cybersecurity incidents. The contract was posted on July 20, 2026, and is classified under NAICS code 541512, which pertains to computer systems design and related services. Performance obligations are expected to support the broader defense supply chain's information security posture, requiring rigorous validation of controls and consistent communication of compliance status. While specific location details are not provided, the nature of the work implies coordination with government and contractor systems operating across multiple sites. The contract emphasizes actionable outcomes—such as remediation plans and audit readiness—rather than advisory services alone, ensuring measurable alignment with DoD cybersecurity mandates.
