Price-to-win analyst must resolve whether Section M scoring math was applied

Situation

Price-to-win analyst in an 8(a) teaming on a civilian shared-services RFP has one working extract — shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps — after a government estimate that is 30% below your floor. If shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps cannot support Section M scoring math, the honest Government RFP output is hold.

Decision

Price-to-win analyst in an 8(a) teaming on a civilian shared-services RFP must choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid using shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps after a government estimate that is 30% below your floor.

• Shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps reads as Pursue once a government estimate that is 30% below your floor is lined up to the same Government RFP population.
• Shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps is closer to Pursue with conditions after a government estimate that is 30% below your floor; Pursue would over-claim this Compliance and Cyber Requirements extract.
• Partner is still live in shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps for price-to-win analyst in an 8(a) teaming on a civilian shared-services RFP.
• Shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps is missing the fact price-to-win analyst needs after a government estimate that is 30% below your floor; stop this Government RFP close.

• Score competitive posture if price-to-win analyst pursues, partners, or no-bids.
• For this Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements file, read shall-statement compliance matrix with gaps against a government estimate that is 30% below your floor and write the one fact that would move Section M scoring math for price-to-win analyst.
