Description: BPA contractors are required to protect their data and electronic systems consistent with the federal FISMA law (Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002). Your contract has been rated as “low risk” by BPA Cyber Security. The designated signatory for your organization may vary.
Check with your COTR to see if BPA has already obtained, or will soon obtain through previous contracts, the attestation. If not, please work with your COTR to obtain a signed attestation confirming your organization’s compliance with FISMA. Attestations can be in the form of a formal memorandum, letter, or email. An email will need to be cut and pasted into a word processing program. All attachments must be saved and uploaded as PDF. A sample attestation communication that describes the minimum information required can be found as a Pisces attachment at {https://pisces.bpa.gov/release/documents/DocumentViewer.aspx?doc=P137862}.
Upload the attestation to Pisces under the new “FISMA Attestation” File Type, and type in the title as “Low-risk FISMA attestation”. This milestone is considered complete when the contractor has uploaded an electronic copy of a signed attestation. Deadline: Start and end dates are both the first day of the contract. |
