Assess whether the SBIR data-rights assertions are too aggressive (1b7507)

Situation

A CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling put discriminator table that still reads generic in front of past-performance volume owner in a mid-tier integrator bidding a DoD IDIQ task order. This Government RFP / Capture and Pricing close is the SBIR data-rights assertions from discriminator table that still reads generic, and the live options are Pursue, Pursue with conditions, Partner.

Decision

Past-performance volume owner in a mid-tier integrator bidding a DoD IDIQ task order must choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid using discriminator table that still reads generic after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling.

Hypotheses to test

• A CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling is noise around an already-controlled Capture and Pricing process in a mid-tier integrator bidding a DoD IDIQ task order, given discriminator table that still reads generic.
• A CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling is the event in discriminator table that still reads generic that forces Pursue for past-performance volume owner under Government RFP.
• Discriminator table that still reads generic shows a one-file miss after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling, not a Capture and Pricing program failure.
• Discriminator table that still reads generic cannot decide the SBIR data-rights assertions yet after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling; hold is the only Government RFP close a mid-tier integrator bidding a DoD IDIQ task order can defend.

Analysis required

• Normalize pricing and exceptions against the solicitation that governs the SBIR data-rights assertions.
• Score competitive posture if past-performance volume owner pursues, partners, or no-bids.
• Test OCI, QASP, and mandatory evaluation rights a mid-tier integrator bidding a DoD IDIQ task order cannot waive quietly.
• For this Government RFP Capture and Pricing file, read discriminator table that still reads generic against a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling and write the one fact that would move the SBIR data-rights assertions for past-performance volume owner.

Recommendation

Choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid on this Government RFP / Capture and Pricing packet (discriminator table that still reads generic after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling). The follow-on Capture and Pricing action is what past-performance volume owner does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
