SITUATION Proposal compliance lead in a company facing a CMMC Level 2 assessment before bid has one working extract — past-performance recency and relevance scorecard — after a task order that looks written for one vendor. If past-performance recency and relevance scorecard cannot support key personnel substitutions will, the only defensible Government RFP output is hold.
