Security & Compliance

Effective date: September 29, 2025

Reeds Solutions, LLC operates with a compliance-first mindset. We implement practical controls, clear documentation, and disciplined oversight to protect information and deliver audit-ready outcomes for federal partners.

Compliance Alignment

Federal Contracting Frameworks

  • FAR Federal Acquisition Regulation alignment in processes and documentation
  • DFARS Awareness of safeguarding clauses for CUI when applicable
  • CUI Handling per NARA guidance when present in the contract

Security Standards

  • NIST SP 800-53 (foundational) Control families used as reference for internal policies
  • NIST SP 800-171 Control alignment roadmap for contracts involving CUI
  • CMMC Preparedness roadmap toward meeting required maturity level as specified by solicitations

Note: The above reflects our alignment and roadmap. Formal certifications or assessments are pursued as required by specific solicitations and contracts.

Information Handling & Privacy

  • Data minimization: We collect only what is necessary to perform the work.
  • Classification & labeling: Contract data is labeled by sensitivity (e.g., Public, Internal, CUI when applicable).
  • Access control: Least-privilege with role-based access; access is granted by need and reviewed periodically.
  • Encryption: In transit via TLS; at rest via provider encryption where supported.
  • Email submissions: Public website forms route through an email delivery service (e.g., SendGrid) to business inboxes; documents should not include SSNs or highly sensitive data.
  • Retention: Records retained only as long as needed for business and compliance, then securely deleted.

  2. Notify: Inform appropriate stakeholders and the contracting officer as required by contract terms.
  3. Eradicate & recover: Patch, rotate credentials, restore from clean backups.
  4. Post-incident review: Document root cause, corrective actions, and control improvements.

We maintain contact paths for urgent escalations and coordinate with partners if shared systems are impacted.
