Situation
Past-performance recency and relevance scorecard arrived with an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall for price-to-win analyst. That is a Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements decision on a modification is in-scope in an 8(a) teaming on a civilian shared-services RFP.
Decision
Price-to-win analyst in an 8(a) teaming on a civilian shared-services RFP must choose A modification is in-scope / A new procurement using past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall.
Hypotheses to test
- Authorize A modification is in-scope now; past-performance recency and relevance scorecard already has the discriminator after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall.
- Keep A new procurement in force until past-performance recency and relevance scorecard is completed after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall for price-to-win analyst.
- Treat past-performance recency and relevance scorecard as A modification is in-scope because both readings appear after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall.
- Refuse a Government RFP close: price-to-win analyst does not have the page a modification is in-scope turns on in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard.
Analysis required
- Score competitive posture if price-to-win analyst pursues, partners, or no-bids.
- Test OCI, QASP, and mandatory evaluation rights an 8(a) teaming on a civilian shared-services RFP cannot waive quietly.
- Map Section L/M requirements in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard to evaluator notes after an OCI letter naming an affiliate you forgot to firewall.
- 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 a modification is in-scope for price-to-win analyst.
