ADJUSTABLE COLUMN & HEADSTOCK FIXTURES

Amendment / Modification

This document is a Deviation Request related to DFARS clauses concerning safeguarding covered defense information and cyber incident reporting, and NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment Requirements. It introduces Alternate I for these clauses, specifically for requirements related to UK companies within the scope of the UK MOD ISN Number 2021/03.

Key changes include:

• DFARS 252.204-7012 (Cyber Incident Reporting): Substitutes paragraphs (e), (f), and (g) for UK companies. This includes provisions for media preservation and protection, access for forensic analysis, and cyber incident damage assessment activities, with specific coordination requirements involving the UK national/designated security authority and the Defense Cyber Crime Center (DC3).
• DFARS 252.204-7020 (NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment): Substitutes paragraphs (c), (d), and (g)(2) for UK companies. This impacts requirements for government access to facilities/systems for assessments, posting of summary level scores in SPRS, and subcontracting requirements. Specifically, subcontracts involving UK companies within scope are exempt from the requirement for a recent NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment, provided the subcontracted information systems are not operated on behalf of the Government.

• DFARS 252.204-7012 (SAFEGUARDING COVERED DEFENSE INFORMATION AND CYBER INCIDENT REPORTING)
• DFARS 252.204-7020 (NIST SP 800-171 DOD ASSESSMENT REQUIREMENTS)

This deviation primarily impacts how UK companies within the specified scope must comply with cyber incident reporting and DoD assessment requirements, including subcontracting provisions. Bidders should review these substituted paragraphs carefully to understand their obligations if they are a UK company within the scope of the UK MOD ISN Number 2021/03.
