Past-performance volume owner must resolve whether the SBIR data-rights
August 31, 2026 · SmartSolo
Situation
Past-performance volume owner in a lab competing a Phase II SBIR has one working extract — past-performance recency and relevance scorecard — after a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement. If past-performance recency and relevance scorecard cannot support the SBIR data-rights assertions, the honest Government RFP output is hold.
Decision
Past-performance volume owner in a lab competing a Phase II SBIR must choose Pursue / Pursue with conditions / Partner / No-bid using past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement.
Hypotheses to test
- The population in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard is the one a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement named, so Pursue follows for this Compliance and Cyber Requirements file.
- The population in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard is adjacent only to a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement; Pursue with conditions is the honest Government RFP call.
- A lab competing a Phase II SBIR already contained a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement before past-performance recency and relevance scorecard arrived; no new Compliance and Cyber Requirements path.
- Provenance on past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement is broken; do not pick Pursue or Pursue with conditions yet.
Analysis required
- Test OCI, QASP, and mandatory evaluation rights a lab competing a Phase II SBIR cannot waive quietly.
- Map Section L/M requirements in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard to evaluator notes after a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement.
- Compare teaming and past-performance claims to what past-performance recency and relevance scorecard attaches.
- For this Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements file, read past-performance recency and relevance scorecard against a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement and write the one fact that would move the SBIR data-rights assertions for past-performance volume owner.
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 a teammate that cannot meet the facility-clearance requirement). 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.
