Brief

THREAT TEC, LLC

Marketplace for Acquisition of Professional Services (MAPS)

Decision

Pursue MAPS as a subcontractor to leverage niche wargaming and threat emulation capabilities.

Threat Tec is well-positioned to join a winning team by offering high-scoring Qualifying Projects and specialized RDT&E expertise. Missing mandatory facility clearance and CMMC certifications eliminate a prime pursuit.

Why this call

Current evidence supports acting on the recommended subcontract posture now.

  1. Niche wargaming capabilities and $170M in DoD past performance provide high-scoring Qualifying Projects for a prime's scorecard.
  2. The solicitation mandates an Active Secret Facility Clearance and CMMC Level 2 for initial screening, which Threat Tec lacks.
  3. We must map specific Qualifying Projects to MAPS domains to finalize our target list of prime partners and tailor the pitch.

Next capture moves

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

Decision watchouts

Why not prime

Missing Mandatory Prime Certifications

Threat Tec lacks the Active Secret Facility Clearance and CMMC Level 2 required to pass the Prime screening questions.

Prime Compliance Blockers

Missing Active Secret FCL and CMMC Level 2 prevent a Prime bid.

Still to verify

Does Threat Tec currently hold an unlisted Active Secret Facility Clearance or CMMC Level 2 certification that would alter the Prime viability assessment?

If yes, the company could pivot to a Prime pursuit posture. If no, Subcontracting remains the only viable path.

Which specific MAPS domains (e.g., RDT&E, Engineering) best align with Threat Tec's Qualifying Projects (QPs) to maximize a Prime's scorecard?

Determines the targeted list of Prime partners and the specific value proposition to pitch.
