Cyber Ready for GSA OASIS+

On August 15th the Pentagon published in the Federal Register the proposed amendment for #CMMC (DFARS Case 2019-D041). It’s to be a 3-year roll out where the clock is scheduled to begin ticking in summer 2025. DoD program managers have a large amount of discretion to include CMMC requirements in contracts during the phase-in period from day 1.

For opportunities identified with a CMMC assessment or certification, companies will be able bid, and then get the self-assessment or certification done while it’s in source selection. To issue a contract, the CMMC certification/self-assessment needs to meet requirements. So, what’s the rush?

Securing a Winning Team.

CMMC certifications are going to be a key differentiator in the early days of the OASIS+ GWAC. If it’s your intent to team with large or incumbent contractors … know that your CMMC status will be a key decision factor for joining your team.

CMMC as Part of Your Brand

For those who are CMMC ready – SHOUT IT OUT! Make it a key branding point when on the hunt for strategic business partners. Focus on work that aligns with your past performance and identify customers who plan to be an early adopter for CMMC compliance.

For those who have not started the CMMC process … find a way to make it a priority in FY25. You’ll be dramatically reducing your OASIS+ competitiveness without it.

Standing Out is GSA OASIS+ When I review the list of OASIS+ apparent awardees, I notice there are a lot of similarities in company names.
