Couldn’t agree with you more Adam Rentschler. There are many reasons why Bonnie Evangelista and her team have received this award. Like any great team, their passion outweighs the pain of facing all the non-believers on this road less traveled. Below I’ve outlined what I’ve seen thus far and what others can take away and apply to their journey as well. 🚀They hit the ground running and canvased the community looking for early adopters and created a coalition of believers before the platform went live. 🚀They used non-traditional methods and means to connect to industry. 🚀Their intrapreneuerial spirit is a driving force of their success. 🚀Most importantly Bonnie Evangelista’s belief to stand up for what’s right, even when it’s against the grain allowed others to follow in her foot steps. 🚀 They increased the literacy of our leaders which will allow them to pivot before the problem and use the platform. I hope everyone is watching. This is leadership and this is the future. This is more than an award but recognition of the principles, systems, structure and standards necessary to apply to whatever it is the rest of government is working on. #BurnTheBoats #COGD #IYKYK

RGi President Brian Loggins spoke with the WashingtonExec. this week about how we provide an #ImmediateImpact for our government clients, and stand out among other GovCons. “What makes us different is the quality of our work, the quality of our people. I know a lot of companies can say that, but the difference with us is we’re very deliberate and focused on hiring the best, most innovative-type people, and then only going after the really innovative, complex kinds of work."

would like to see a little bit more stick, but its a start (still a slow process) Receiving AOs have the right to refuse participating in reciprocity with another organization due to insufficient content demonstrating an informed understanding of the security posture, risk assessment of the system, and the rationale for the risk determination as defined on the RMF KS, or due to excessive risk to the enclave or site, as determined by the site AO. However, the Receiving AO must document and report this refusal to the Granting organization’s AO within 10 business days. If a refusal does occur, both organizations will continue to work, and re-work, the ATO package to reach an agreement, if at all possible. When AOs cannot reach an agreement to leverage re-use and reciprocity, both parties must use the following resolution process to gain assistance in resolving the impasse: 1. If a conflict arises, due to reciprocity refusal there should be an attempt to resolve it at the AO level. This could include, but not limited to, the Granting AO conducting new assessments. 2. If the conflict cannot be resolved at the AO level, the RMF TAG Secretariat will be notified and the RMF TAG Chair will attempt to mediate the dispute as appropriate. 3. If the RMF TAG Chair cannot reach a resolution, the issue will be taken to the AO Council, chaired by the DoD CISO, who will serve as a mediator for the dispute.
