## Recommended Capture Actions
- Conduct an immediate internal audit to definitively confirm the status of Facility Clearance (FCL) and CMMC Level 2 compliance.
- Identify top 5-10 MAPS Prime candidates (Large or Emerging Large) targeting the RDT&E or Engineering domains.
- Develop a subcontractor value proposition highlighting $170M+ DoD past performance and niche Wargaming/Threat Emulation capabilities.
