How to Procure Unison Government Cloud for Defense Contracts
Unison Government Cloud is available through GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) 70 under SIN 518210C (IT Professional Services) and SIN 54151S (Data Management Solutions). Government pricing includes volume discounts for multi-year commitments and enterprise licensing models specific to federal grants management workflows. For authorization boundary documentation, contracting officers must ensure the System Security Plan (SSP) clearly defines data flows between Unison and existing federal financial management systems like FMIS, FPDS-NG, and USASpending.gov integrations. The procurement package should include Unison's FedRAMP Package documentation, Continuous Monitoring Plan, and API security specifications for systems integration. Typical procurement timeline spans 6-9 months including technical evaluation, security assessment validation, and ATO processing. For CMMC assessment boundary inclusion, document all CUI data flows within grants lifecycle processes, particularly applicant PII, financial data classifications, and inter-agency data sharing agreements. Ensure contract language addresses data residency requirements, backup/recovery procedures within FedRAMP boundaries, and incident response coordination with agency SOCs. Consider hybrid deployment options for agencies requiring on-premises integration with legacy grants management systems while maintaining cloud-based analytics and reporting capabilities.
Compliance Cross-References
Unison Government Cloud's FedRAMP Moderate authorization directly supports DFARS 252.204-7012 compliance through covered defense information protection within grants management workflows, particularly for defense contractor grant applications and SBIR/STTR program administration. Under DFARS 252.239-7010 cloud computing requirements, the platform's AWS GovCloud deployment satisfies government-only cloud mandates for CUI processing. NIST 800-171 control family alignment includes Access Control (AC) through role-based grants administrator permissions, System and Communications Protection (SC) via encrypted data transmission for financial documents, and Audit and Accountability (AU) through comprehensive grants lifecycle logging. For CMMC Level 2 domains, Unison addresses Access Control (AC.L2), System and Information Integrity (SI.L2), and Incident Response (IR.L2) requirements essential for grants processing containing CUI. DoD Cloud Computing SRG IL-2 requirements are satisfied through the FedRAMP Moderate baseline, enabling defense agencies to process grants data while maintaining separation from higher classification levels.
