Subcontractor NIST Compliance Verification and Flow-Down Management

The contract requires support to the prime contractor in ensuring subcontractor adherence to NIST SP 800-171 cybersecurity standards, focusing on validation of SPRS scores, proper flow-down of DFARS clauses, and maintenance of comprehensive compliance documentation. The work centers on verifying that all subcontractors handling controlled unclassified information meet federal cybersecurity requirements through systematic review and recordkeeping practices. Performance is tied to a single location in Tracy, California with a 95304-5000 ZIP code, and the effort falls under NAICS code 541611 for management consulting services. The solicitation was posted on May 10, 2026, with responses due by May 18, 2026, and is issued by the ASC Commodities Division under the Department of Defense. While no set-aside classification is specified, the activity is structured as a subcontract procurement and demands expertise in defense contractor compliance frameworks, particularly around NIST cybersecurity controls and DFARS regulatory obligations. All tasks must be executed to ensure the prime contractor maintains audit readiness and avoids noncompliance risks across its supply chain.
