Get in Touch

Battelle often forms teaming arrangements with other companies on the GSA Federal Supply Schedule. Battelle and one or more GSA Schedule contractors can work together to compete for projects that we might not qualify for individually. The client benefits by being able to purchase a total solution and avoid having a number of different contract vehicles with disparate contractors. See the Contract Vehicles page for more information.

If you are a small or disadvantaged business, we encourage you to register in Battelle's Supplier Portal. Battelle is always looking for new business relationships in this area.

Supply Chain Cybersecurity Compliance -DFARS Interim Rule

We wanted to alert you that the highly anticipated new Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement: Assessing Contractor Implementation of Cybersecurity Requirements (DFARS Case 2019-D041) was published on September 29th in the Federal Register as an interim rule, rather than as a proposed rule as was originally expected. While the interim rule does not change any of the existing DFARS Cyber clauses, including DFARS 252.204-7012, it does add three new DFARS cyber security clauses focused on assessing a company’s compliance with the applicable cybersecurity standard.

Learn more about the DFARS Interim Rule.

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)

To safeguard sensitive national security information, the Department of Defense (DoD) launched CMMC 2.0, a comprehensive framework to protect the defense industrial base from increasingly frequent and complex cyberattacks. As Battelle works towards compliance for CMMC, we encourage our subcontractors and suppliers to learn more about compliance requirements and stay up-to-date on the latest CMMC news.
