How to Procure Workday Financial Management Government for Defense Contracts
Workday Financial Management Government is available through GSA MAS Contract 47QSWA18D008J and SEWP V Contract NNG15SC03B. Government pricing includes FedRAMP compliance costs built into the SaaS subscription model, typically 15-20% premium over commercial rates due to enhanced security controls and dedicated government cloud infrastructure. Contracting officers must review the complete authorization boundary documentation including the System Security Plan (SSP), Security Assessment Report (SAR), and Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M) from the FedRAMP marketplace. The authorization boundary encompasses financial data processing, reporting modules, and integration APIs but excludes customer-managed integrations and third-party add-ons. Approval requirements include FISMA categorization matching Moderate impact level, ATO from agency CISO, and continuous monitoring plan acceptance. Typical procurement timeline spans 6-9 months including security review, technical evaluation, and contract negotiation phases. For CMMC assessment boundary inclusion, document all CUI processed through financial transactions, specify data flows to/from other systems, and ensure Workday's infrastructure controls are mapped to your CMMC Level 2 requirements. The system inherits 200+ security controls from the FedRAMP authorization, reducing your assessment scope significantly.
Compliance Cross-References
Workday Financial Management Government's FedRAMP Moderate authorization directly supports DFARS 252.204-7012 compliance by providing adequate security controls for CUI processing in financial workflows. The system satisfies DFARS 252.239-7010 cloud computing requirements through its approved government cloud deployment model with continuous monitoring and incident response capabilities. NIST 800-171 control families are extensively covered: Access Control (AC) through role-based permissions and multi-factor authentication, System and Communications Protection (SC) via FIPS 140-2 Level 1 encryption and boundary protection, and Audit and Accountability (AU) through comprehensive logging and monitoring. For CMMC Level 2, the system addresses all 14 domains including Asset Management (AM), Configuration Management (CM), and Risk Management (RM) through inherited cloud provider controls and application-level security features. DoD Cloud Computing SRG Impact Level 2 requirements are met through the FedRAMP baseline plus additional DoD-specific controls for data isolation and government-only tenancy.
