August 31, 2026 · SmartSolo
Situation
A CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling put contract-mod scope creep log in front of past-performance volume owner in a lab competing a Phase II SBIR. This Government RFP / Compliance and Cyber Requirements close is Section M scoring math from contract-mod scope creep log, and the live options are Pursue, Pursue with conditions, Partner.
Decision
Past-performance volume owner in a lab competing a Phase II SBIR must choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid using contract-mod scope creep log after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling.
Hypotheses to test
- Contract-mod scope creep log reads as Pursue once a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling is lined up to the same Government RFP population.
- Contract-mod scope creep log is closer to Pursue with conditions after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling; Pursue would over-claim this Compliance and Cyber Requirements extract.
- Partner is still live in contract-mod scope creep log for past-performance volume owner in a lab competing a Phase II SBIR.
- Contract-mod scope creep log is missing the fact past-performance volume owner needs after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling; stop this Government RFP close.
Analysis required
- Map Section L/M requirements in contract-mod scope creep log to evaluator notes after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling.
- Compare teaming and past-performance claims to what contract-mod scope creep log attaches.
- Normalize pricing and exceptions against the solicitation that governs Section M scoring math.
- For this Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements file, read contract-mod scope creep log against a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling and write the one fact that would move Section M scoring math for past-performance volume owner.
Recommendation
Choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid on this Government RFP / Compliance and Cyber Requirements packet (contract-mod scope creep log after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling). The follow-on Compliance and Cyber Requirements action is what past-performance volume owner does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
