Assess whether Section M scoring math was applied consistently (b625ba)
August 31, 2026 · SmartSolo
Situation
Proposal compliance lead owns Section M scoring math inside a contractor evaluating a modification that looks like out-of-scope work with discriminator table that still reads generic as the only packet. A CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling is what changed the clock for this Government RFP Performance and Teaming file.
Decision
Proposal compliance lead in a contractor evaluating a modification that looks like out-of-scope work 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
- The population in discriminator table that still reads generic is the one a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling named, so Pursue follows for this Performance and Teaming file.
- The population in discriminator table that still reads generic is adjacent only to a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling; Pursue with conditions is the honest Government RFP call.
- A contractor evaluating a modification that looks like out-of-scope work already contained a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling before discriminator table that still reads generic arrived; no new Performance and Teaming path.
- Provenance on discriminator table that still reads generic after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling is broken; do not pick Pursue or Pursue with conditions yet.
Analysis required
- Map Section L/M requirements in discriminator table that still reads generic to evaluator notes after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling.
- Compare teaming and past-performance claims to what discriminator table that still reads generic attaches.
- Normalize pricing and exceptions against the solicitation that governs Section M scoring math.
- For this Government RFP Performance and Teaming file, read discriminator table that still reads generic against a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling and write the one fact that would move Section M scoring math for proposal compliance lead.
Recommendation
Choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid on this Government RFP / Performance and Teaming packet (discriminator table that still reads generic after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling). The follow-on Performance and Teaming action is what proposal compliance lead does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
