CMMC implementation lead must resolve whether a modification is in-scope
August 31, 2026 · SmartSolo
Situation
A modification is in-scope sits with CMMC implementation lead because a key person who just resigned hit an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance. Evidence is contract-mod scope creep log; write the Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements option that extract can carry.
Decision
CMMC implementation lead in an incumbent defending a recompete with thin past performance must choose A modification is in-scope / A new procurement using contract-mod scope creep log after a key person who just resigned.
Hypotheses to test
- Authorize A modification is in-scope now; contract-mod scope creep log already has the discriminator after a key person who just resigned.
- Keep A new procurement in force until contract-mod scope creep log is completed after a key person who just resigned for CMMC implementation lead.
- Treat contract-mod scope creep log as A modification is in-scope because both readings appear after a key person who just resigned.
- Refuse a Government RFP close: CMMC implementation lead does not have the page a modification is in-scope turns on in contract-mod scope creep log.
Analysis required
- Map Section L/M requirements in contract-mod scope creep log to evaluator notes after a key person who just resigned.
- Compare teaming and past-performance claims to what contract-mod scope creep log attaches.
- Normalize pricing and exceptions against the solicitation that governs a modification is in-scope.
- For this Government RFP Compliance and Cyber Requirements file, read contract-mod scope creep log against a key person who just resigned and write the one fact that would move a modification is in-scope for CMMC implementation lead.
Recommendation
Choose A modification is in-scope / A new procurement on this Government RFP / Compliance and Cyber Requirements packet (contract-mod scope creep log after a key person who just resigned). The follow-on Compliance and Cyber Requirements action is what CMMC implementation lead does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
