How to Procure New Relic for Government for Defense Contracts
New Relic for Government is available through GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) under SIN 518210C (IT Professional Services) and SIN 54151S (Software as a Service). The product is also procurable via SEWP VI for integrated IT solutions. Government pricing includes dedicated support tiers and volume discounts not available commercially, with transparent pricing models that accommodate federal budget cycles. For authorization boundary documentation, the FedRAMP Moderate ATO package includes detailed System Security Plan (SSP), Control Implementation Summary (CIS), and Security Assessment Report (SAR) that can be leveraged for your agency's SSP development. Contracting officers must approve the use of the FedRAMP authorized boundary, validate data handling procedures align with agency classification requirements, and ensure proper FISMA categorization. The procurement timeline typically spans 90-120 days including security review, vendor negotiations, and ATO documentation review. For CMMC assessment boundaries, New Relic for Government must be included as an external service provider when processing Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Document the data flows, encryption methods, and access controls in your CMMC scope. The service inherits cloud infrastructure controls but requires assessment of configuration management and monitoring data handling practices.
Compliance Cross-References
New Relic for Government's FedRAMP Moderate authorization directly supports DFARS 252.204-7012 compliance by providing adequate security controls for CUI processing and transmission. For DFARS 252.239-7010 cloud computing requirements, the service meets government-only cloud deployment mandates through its AWS GovCloud infrastructure. NIST 800-171 control family mapping includes: Access Control (AC) through role-based permissions and multi-factor authentication; System and Communications Protection (SC) via encryption in transit and at rest using FIPS 140-2 validated modules; and Audit and Accountability (AU) through comprehensive logging and monitoring capabilities. For CMMC Level 2 domains, the platform addresses Asset Management through automated discovery and inventory, Configuration Management via baseline monitoring and drift detection, and System and Information Integrity through continuous vulnerability scanning. DoD Cloud Computing SRG IL-2 requirements are satisfied through the FedRAMP Moderate baseline, which provides equivalent security controls for DoD unclassified information systems.
Defense Contractor Use Case
Defense contractors use New Relic Government for application performance monitoring and observability, particularly when they prefer a consumption-based pricing model over per-host licensing.
