Assess whether Section M scoring math was applied consistently (ae0fa5)

Situation

Section M scoring math sits with capture manager because a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling hit a lab competing a Phase II SBIR. Evidence is past-performance recency and relevance scorecard; write the Government RFP Protest and Modifications option that extract can carry.

Decision

Capture manager 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 CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling.

Hypotheses to test

• The population in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard is the one a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling named, so Pursue follows for this Protest and Modifications file.
• The population in past-performance recency and relevance scorecard is adjacent only to a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling; Pursue with conditions is the honest Government RFP call.
• A lab competing a Phase II SBIR already contained a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling before past-performance recency and relevance scorecard arrived; no new Protest and Modifications path.
• Provenance on past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling is broken; do not pick Pursue or Pursue with conditions yet.

Analysis required

• Compare teaming and past-performance claims to what past-performance recency and relevance scorecard attaches.
• Normalize pricing and exceptions against the solicitation that governs Section M scoring math.
• Score competitive posture if capture manager pursues, partners, or no-bids.
• For this Government RFP Protest and Modifications file, read past-performance recency and relevance scorecard against a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling 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 / Protest and Modifications packet (past-performance recency and relevance scorecard after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling). Lead with the Government RFP option past-performance recency and relevance scorecard can support after a CMMC assessor finding on CUI handling, then the two facts that force it, then the Monday action for capture manager in a lab competing a Phase II SBIR.
