Cybersecurity compliance is required through a CMMC Level 2 Self-Assessment, and the awardee is certified as a small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business, triggering associated federal reporting obligations. Payment is processed through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Columbus, Ohio, using traditional DoD invoicing methods with no electronic system specified.
