ASSYST awarded USDA $1B Cybersecurity Support Services BPA

ASSYST is thrilled to announce that we have been selected as an awardee on the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Cybersecurity and Privacy Operations Center (CPOC) Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to safeguard USDA’s enterprise-wide and mission-specific operations. The BPA allows call orders over the next five years, with a cumulative not-to-exceed value of $1 billion.

“USDA is entering an important period of mission modernization, where cybersecurity, resilience, and trusted digital services are foundational to delivering for America’s producers and rural communities. This CPOC BPA award gives ASSYST an opportunity to support that mission by bringing together modern cybersecurity, Zero Trust principles, continuous monitoring, automation, and mission-focused technology delivery to strengthen the digital foundation behind USDA programs. As USDA advances, we are excited to help protect critical systems and data, reduce cyber risk, and enable secure, resilient services for USDA’s workforce, customers, and the taxpayers they serve.” — Eugene Goldlust, Senior Account Executive, ASSYST, Inc.

With flexible delivery models designed to accommodate evolving federal standards and emerging cyber threats, this BPA positions ASSYST to accelerate modern, risk-aware security posture improvements across the department.
