# MDMC Digital Depot - Brief

- Company: IAMUS CONSULTING, INC
- SAM URL: https://sam.gov/opp/3da441ff651e44c0af213498680dc003

## Decision
Go through Teaming

IAMUS perfectly aligns with the WOSB set-aside and brings strong cyber expertise, but lacks the mandatory CMMI Level 3 certification to bid alone. Forming a Joint Venture with a certified partner is the most viable path to win this work.

## Bid Summary
- Recommendation: Go through Teaming
- Bid posture: Teaming
- Readiness: Needs validation

## Key Decision Drivers
- IAMUS's WOSB certification, TS FCL, and cyber expertise make it an attractive Joint Venture anchor or teaming partner.
- The PWS mandates CMMI Level 3 certification, which IAMUS does not currently hold, preventing a standalone prime bid.
- We must validate access to a USMC IC4 Certified Validator and the ability to secure Letters of Intent for 13 FTEs.

## Recommended Capture Actions
- Verify CMMI Level 3 status
- Identify WOSB teaming partners
- Recruit USMC IC4 Validator

## Decision watchouts

### Why not prime
- Missing CMMI Level 3 (Prime blocker): IAMUS does not explicitly show CMMI Level 3.
- Open CMMI Level 3 Certification requirement (Prime blocker): CMMI Level 3 Certification is still unresolved in the validated evidence set.
- Open USMC IC4 Certified Validator requirement (Prime blocker): USMC IC4 Certified Validator is still unresolved in the validated evidence set.

### Still to verify
- Does IAMUS currently hold CMMI Level 3 certification, or is there an existing SBA-approved Joint Venture in place that holds this certification? (Open question): If CMMI Level 3 is not held, IAMUS cannot bid as a prime contractor and must pivot to a subcontracting strategy.
