Requirement guide Bid eligibility
Can I bid without CMMC?
Some opportunities may not contain a CMMC requirement. Others may require a specific status for the systems used in performance. A pursuit review records the explicit requirement, planned scope, current evidence, and unresolved questions before the team invests further.

What to confirm
The governing solicitation, contract, or flowdown establishes the requirement. Company leadership authorizes the bid. Only the contracting parties can change the stated requirement.
Organize the requirement, work, and evidence.
Deep Fathom records the source requirement, accountable owner, assigned work, supporting evidence, and review history. The team can then review the specific requirement instead of searching across disconnected documents.
