CenCore Awarded $19 Million Contract by DoD to Develop Cutting-Edge Mobile SCIFS

SPRINGVILLE, Utah, May 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — CenCore has been awarded $19M by the Department of Defense (DoD) and the U.S. Marine Corps Warfighting Lab (MCWL) to build the first of its kind mobile Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs) at the TS/SCI level for the USMC’s Project 7/11. Project 7/11, a forward-operating U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) initiative, will rapidly deploy CenCore’s containerized secure units (CSUs), otherwise known as mobile SCIFs, to the battlefield. CenCore’s exclusively patented CSUs are the only 100% TS/SCI and Special Access Programs (SAP-level) American-made units in the marketplace, manufactured in Aurora, CO, and will allow the U.S. military to boost U.S. military and intelligence employment in the region. These CSUs will enable completely secure edge computing, mission command, and resilient communications in austere environments for the warfighter. 

CenCore’s work with Project 7/11 represents a new phase in the USMC modernization strategy — one centered on rapidly fieldable, low-signature infrastructure, that extends the Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) to integrate command and control across all domains, creating a unified system for military operations. 

“This milestone marks a significant achievement for CenCore as a recognized program of record for the U.S. DoD and the USMC. CenCore delivers unparalleled speed, survivability, and integration at the TS/SCI level, all while being entirely made in the U.S.,” stated Adam Fife, CEO of CenCore. “We are honored to bring more jobs to America while supporting the DOD and USMC with deployable infrastructure that can operate anywhere in the world — and deliver a variety of innovative capabilities to the warfighter within hours, not months.”

Headquartered in Springville, UT, CenCore is a trusted partner in delivering innovative security solutions in an ever-evolving threat landscape. CenCore delivers U.S.-made, tech-agnostic, open-source security systems that ensure global secure communications. CenCore prioritizes cost-effective, high-performance solutions over superficial appeal.

Security Plan for Construction Site Operations: Common CSP Mistakes That Delay Projects

A security plan for construction site operations does more than satisfy a compliance requirement. On secure builds, it directly determines whether construction milestones are met or whether the project stalls waiting on inspections, documentation corrections, or accreditation reviews. Delays on complex builds often do not begin with engineering problems. They begin with gaps in the […]

What a SCIF Room Really Requires (Beyond the Basics) 

A SCIF room — Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility — is a government-accredited secure space designed to protect sensitive compartmented information, classified material, and other forms of sensitive information from physical, electronic, and acoustic compromise. Meeting true SCIF requirements means thinking far beyond a hardened conference room or basic secure room. For facility managers, program managers, and security teams planning new SCIF facilities […]

ICD 705 Tech Spec Explained: What It Means for Real SCIF Projects 

Designing or upgrading a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) is not a typical construction effort. These facilities exist to protect classified information and sensitive compartmented information that supports national intelligence missions. At the center of every compliant SCIF is ICD 705, the governing Intelligence Community Directive that defines how secure facilities must be designed, constructed, and accredited.  SCIF construction fails accreditation for predictable reasons: design decisions made […]
