# Marketplace for Acquisition of Professional Services (MAPS) - Capture Assessment

- Company: THREAT TEC, LLC
- SAM URL: https://sam.gov/opp/76b65efc53194dda89bf65df17242242

Threat Tec's specialized threat emulation expertise and strong DoD past performance make it an attractive subcontracting partner for the RDT&E and Operational Services domains. However, missing Facility Clearance and CMMC Level 2 certifications completely block a prime pursuit.

## Why This Call Lands Here
- Past Performance: Strong past performance makes the company an attractive subcontractor.
- Scope Alignment: MAPS requires broad enterprise IT and professional services capabilities to prime.
- Facility Clearance: Active Secret Facility Clearance is an explicit hard gate for all MAPS offerors.
- CMMC Certification: CMMC Level 2 is a hard gate requirement for Small Businesses.

## Recommended Capture Actions
- Conduct an immediate internal review to confirm the status of the company's Facility Clearance and CMMC Level 2 compliance.
- Analyze the MAPS RDT&E and Engineering/Operational Services domains to map Threat Tec's past performance to Qualifying Project (QP) criteria.
- Identify and initiate outreach to top prospective MAPS primes (especially RS3 and ITES-3S incumbents) to explore subcontracting opportunities.

## Still to verify
- Will the Government allow Small Businesses to rely on a prime/subcontractor team approach to satisfy the Facility Clearance and CMMC Level 2 screening requirements? (Open question): If teaming allows the prime to cover these requirements, Threat Tec could potentially participate in a Joint Venture; otherwise, they are strictly limited to a traditional subcontracting role.
