Project Solicitation

N/A

Per the project solicitation, DFAR 252.204-7021 (Contractor Compliance with the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Level Requirements) is included. Page 51 of 65 states, the Contractor is required to have and maintain a CMMC status of Level 2 (C3PAO) or higher. 32 CFR

170.23 requires the correct CMMC level to flow down to subcontractors.

Per CFR 170.23, if a subcontractor will process, store, or transmit CUI in performance of the subcontract and the associated prime contract has a requirement for a CMMC status of Level 2 (C3PAO), then the CMMC status of Level 2 (C3PAO) is the minimum requirement for the subcontractor.

It is our understanding from surveying the market on other Government projects requiring CMMC, that there are minimal subcontractors in which obtain a Status of Level 2 (Self), let alone a Level 2 (C3PAO) Status. It is recommended the Government reevaluate the CMMC Status Level required for this project. Due to the lack of availability in the subcontracting market, and the ability to comply with this DFAR, any status greater than Level 2 (Self) will result in the inability to bid this project.

Concur with recommended required Level:

CMMC Level 2 (Self) is sufficient.

It appears the only documents which contain CUI information are the CSP files. Is it possible to redact information from the CSPs to eliminate CUI information? By doing this, the CMMC Level Status required per DFAR 252.204-7021 could be reduced to a Level 1 (Self) as there would be only FCI (and not CUI). This will allow for a more adequate

CMMC Level 2 (Self) will be the minimum level allowed, therefore the CSP will not be redacted. Please see solicitation on instructions on how to capacity of subcontractors to pursue, propose on and support this Project.

request CSP documents.

As of February 4, 2022, Executive Order 14063 was signed and requires federal construction projects valued at $35 million or more to use Project Labor Agreements (PLAs). In review of the project solicitation, it does not appear FAR 52.222-33 and/or 52.222- 34 are included which requires Project Labor Agreements. Please confirm this project has been evaluated and determined to be exempt from the use of a PLA.

Confirmed, this project has been evaluated and has been determined to be exempt from the use of a

PLA.
