Assess whether Section M scoring math was applied consistently (2eac0f)

Situation

After an incumbent protest rumor on the street, protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors is what capture manager can touch in an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance. Government RFP will live with Pursue versus Pursue with conditions on this Performance and Teaming file.

Decision

Capture manager in an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance must choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid using protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors after an incumbent protest rumor on the street.

Hypotheses to test

• An incumbent protest rumor on the street is noise around an already-controlled Performance and Teaming process in an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance, given protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors.
• An incumbent protest rumor on the street is the event in protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors that forces Pursue for capture manager under Government RFP.
• Protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors shows a one-file miss after an incumbent protest rumor on the street, not a Performance and Teaming program failure.
• Protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors cannot decide Section M scoring math yet after an incumbent protest rumor on the street; hold is the only Government RFP close an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance can defend.

Analysis required

• Normalize pricing and exceptions against the solicitation that governs Section M scoring math.
• Score competitive posture if capture manager pursues, partners, or no-bids.
• Test OCI, QASP, and mandatory evaluation rights an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance cannot waive quietly.
• For this Government RFP Performance and Teaming file, read protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors against an incumbent protest rumor on the street and write the one fact that would move Section M scoring math for capture manager.

Recommendation

Choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid on this Government RFP / Performance and Teaming packet (protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors after an incumbent protest rumor on the street). Lead with the Government RFP option protest-exposure memo on evaluation factors can support after an incumbent protest rumor on the street, then the two facts that force it, then the Monday action for capture manager in an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance.
