August 31, 2026 · SmartSolo
Situation
Past-performance recency and relevance scorecard arrived with an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall for proposal compliance lead. That is a Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements decision on claimed differentiators would survive in a company facing a CMMC Level 2 assessment before bid.
Decision
Proposal compliance lead in a company facing a CMMC Level 2 assessment before bid must choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid using past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall.
Hypotheses to test
- The population in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard is the one an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall named, so Pursue follows for this Compliance and Cyber Requirements file.
- The population in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard is adjacent only to an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall; Pursue with conditions is the honest Government RFP call.
- A company facing a CMMC Level 2 assessment before bid already contained an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall before past-performance recency and relevance scorecard arrived; no new Compliance and Cyber Requirements path.
- Provenance on past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall is broken; do not pick Pursue or Pursue with conditions yet.
Analysis required
- Compare teaming and past-performance claims to what past-performance recency and relevance scorecard attaches.
- Normalize pricing and exceptions against the solicitation that governs claimed differentiators would survive.
- Score competitive posture if proposal compliance lead pursues, partners, or no-bids.
- For this Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements file, read past-performance recency and relevance scorecard against an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall and write the one fact that would move claimed differentiators would survive for proposal compliance lead.
Recommendation
Choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid on this Government RFP / Compliance and Cyber Requirements packet (past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall). The follow-on Compliance and Cyber Requirements action is what proposal compliance lead does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
