GovDash Now Supports CUI: Built-in CUI Tagging

For defense contractors and cleared facilities, Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) determines what tools you can use, where data can live, and whether AI is even an option.

GovCon teams have been forced to choose: sacrifice modern tooling for compliance, or build workarounds that introduce risk and kill velocity.

GovDash enables secure and compliant automation workflows for govcon across capture, proposal, and delivery using built-in CUI tagging.

Built for the DIB: CUI Tagging From Capture Through Contract

GovDash is purpose-built for the Defense Industrial Base. CUI support reflects that foundation. Unlike generic enterprise platforms retrofitted for government work, GovDash integrates CUI tagging directly into the workflow: from opportunity identification through proposal generation, award, and contract management.

This is native compliance:

Capture phase: Tag capture intelligence, past performance, and teaming partner data calls as CUI when created

Proposal development: Inherit CUI classifications automatically as you build technical volumes, past performance narratives, and key personnel 

Post-award transition: Carry CUI designations into contract files, deliverable tracking, and teaming partner documentation

Contract management: Maintain CUI controls through modifications, reporting periods, and closeout

One Label Creating System-Wide Enforcement

When you upload a document to Contract Cloud or the Data Library, you classify it as Unclassified or CUI once. That classification propagates system-wide through every connected record.

Upload a resume marked CUI? The associated Key Personnel entity inherits that classification.

Attach a CUI technical white paper to a proposal? The entire proposal receives CUI designation automatically.

Reference a past performance narrative containing CUI? Every downstream artifact reflects that sensitivity.

This applies across dozens of record types: Dash Conversations, contract awards, capability statements, teaming partner data, technical libraries, and CPAR responses. You classify once, and GovDash enforces everywhere.

Compliance without Breaking Velocity

In defense contracting, requirements evolve, classifications change, and teaming arrangements shift mid-pursuit. GovDash accounts for this.

You can update any classification at any time. Security officers and proposal managers get flexibility with audit-ready rigor.

As GovDash CCO Meryl Angelicola explains:

"CUI determines which tools can touch sensitive data, how information flows between partners, and whether AI can be applied once CUI enters the picture. Many companies avoid technology in those areas. That's rational, but costly. You lose speed, insight, and competitive advantage.

Defense contractors can finally use purpose-built AI and modern GovCon workflows when responding to solicitations containing CUI."

Why this Matters for Defense and Cleared Contractors

If you work DOD programs, IC contracts, or any solicitation flagged for CUI handling, you know the constraint: past performance gets siloed, resumes live in password-protected files outside your proposal system, and AI tools become off-limits the moment CUI appears.

This fragmentation creates competitive liability.

With GovDash's CUI support, you can:

  • Leverage AI on sensitive proposals without violating agency-specific CUI controls

  • Centralize past performance libraries that include contract details, capability demonstrations, and customer testimonials

  • Maintain teaming partner data in a compliant environment, accelerating collaboration on joint ventures and teaming agreements

  • Automate compliance matrix generation even when source documents contain CUI

  • Preserve audit trails

  • Maintain continuity from proposal to performance, ensuring CUI controls persist through contract execution

Defense-Grade Security 

GovDash is engineered with security and trust at its foundation. The platform and processes are designed with security built in at every step of the development process across product, support, and operations. GovDash meets FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency and is architected for defense-grade security:

  • Data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest using FIPS 140-2 validated modules

  • Supports MFA, custom role-based access controls, and enforces least-privilege access across customer and internal environments

  • Continuous monitoring and logging aligned with NIST SP 800-53 controls

GovDash adheres to FedRAMP Moderate Equivalent standards, including monthly continuous monitoring. It is capable of handling CUI and CDI for CMMC customers.

The Trade-Off Is Gone

The old model forced a choice: stay compliant and work slowly, or move fast and hope nothing slips through.

GovDash eliminates that trade-off. You bring full context (past performance, personnel qualifications, technical libraries, partner capabilities) into compliance-sensitive pursuits. That compliance continues through contract performance, protecting your data and your customer's mission throughout the engagement.
