The Problem

MAPS is a One-Shot, High-Stakes Bet

This is a one-step procurement. You submit your entire proposal — gate docs, scorecards, QPs with government signatures, small business plans — without any preliminary round. One gate failure and it's all lost.

📋
The RFP Is 100+ Pages
Most BD teams are parsing five versions of a dense draft solicitation to figure out if they even qualify. Gate criteria alone spans two business categories with different rules.
💸
Proposals Cost $50K–$200K+
Between internal labor, consultants, proposal writers, and compliance verification, a full MAPS proposal is a serious investment — before you know if you're competitive.
🤝
Teaming Is Chaotic
Firms with strong capability but weak QPs, or firms with great QPs but limited reach, have no efficient way to find each other. Word-of-mouth and LinkedIn aren't a strategy.

What's Inside

Six Steps. One Clear Answer.

OnRampIQ walks you through the actual MAPS evaluation rubric — the same criteria the Army will use to rank your proposal — and tells you exactly where you stand.

01
🏷
Company Profile & Bidding Lane
Determine if you compete as a Large Business, Emerging Large Business (ELB), Small Business, or Commercial-Sector Vendor (CSV). Each lane has different gate thresholds, award pools, and scoring rules.

02
🗺
Domain Selection & Competition
Five domains, each a separate proposal. Understand the competition level, NAICS codes, and scope of work — and decide which domains you're actually positioned to win.

Gate Criteria Assessment
Your proposal stops at Phase 1 if you fail a single gate criterion. We surface every requirement specific to your lane — Secret FCL, ISO 9001, CMMC, CPARS thresholds — with risk timelines and what-to-do-now guidance.

Who It's For

Large / Mid-Tier Defense Firm
BD Director or Capture Manager
Evaluating MAPS across multiple domains and need to justify bid investment to leadership. You need a defensible go/no-go recommendation backed by actual gate criteria analysis — not a gut feeling.

Small Business Owner / President
SB Capture or BD Lead
You have the capability but aren't sure if your contracts qualify as QPs, or whether your CPARS ratings are strong enough. You need the answer fast — and a path to find a prime if your QPs are thin.
Are our past contracts good enough as QPs, and should we find a prime to team with?
Commercial Tech Firm
CEO / President (CSV Lane)
You've never had a federal contract but you're SAM.gov registered and your technology is exactly what the Army needs. The CSV lane was made for you — understand what it takes to enter this market through MAPS.

Pricing

One Assessment. One Price.

FAQ

Questions

MAPS — Marketplace for the Acquisition of Professional Services — is the U.S. Army's $50 billion, 10-year IDIQ that consolidates the expiring ITES-3S and RS3 contract vehicles. If you're an incumbent on either vehicle or competing in Army professional services, MAPS is the most important contract opportunity of the decade. 70 awards per domain across 5 domains = 350 total MAC positions with an anticipated ordering period from 2027 to 2037.
The RFP is 100+ pages across multiple draft versions. OnRampIQ extracts the evaluation criteria that directly determine your gate pass/fail status and scorecard score, organizes them by your specific business category (LB, ELB, SB, or CSV), and applies them to your actual situation. You get a scored output — not raw text to interpret. The passthrough rate calculator and per-QP CPARS scoring alone would take hours to do manually.
The Army released Draft 006 on March 30, 2026, and stated it is the final draft before the official RFP. The evaluation criteria, gate requirements, scoring structure, and award quantities are expected to be largely consistent with the final RFP. We will update the tool if material changes appear. The final RFP is expected in April 2026 — we recommend completing your assessment now while you still have time to act on the findings before proposals are due in May.
You'll be redirected immediately to the assessment tool after payment is confirmed. No downloads, no waiting, no account required. Your payment gives you permanent access from that browser — if you need access from another device, use the link in your Stripe payment confirmation email.
Yes. The assessment is designed for repeated use across different company profiles. Each assessment takes 10-15 minutes. You can run a new assessment for each client simply by refreshing the tool and starting over. If you need bulk access for 5+ clients, contact us at hello@onrampiq.com to discuss a team license.
No. Publishing your teaming profile is included in the $100 assessment access. The directory is coming in the next release (target May 1, 2026) — your assessment access will automatically include directory features when they launch.
All assessment responses are processed in your browser. We don't store your gate criteria answers, QP details, or CPARS ratings on any server. If you choose to publish a teaming profile, you control exactly what information is shared. Your payment is processed securely by Stripe — we never see your card details.
The Army has explicitly confirmed MAPS will proceed — unlike PACTS III, COMET 2, and the Modern Software Delivery IDIQ that were cancelled under the Trump administration's contract consolidation directives. MAPS passed that review. That said, if MAPS is cancelled after you purchase, we'll refund your assessment fee. Email hello@onrampiq.com.
