How to Filter RFQs by CMMC Requirements in Loocey

Overview

In this video, we learn how to filter RFQs by CMMC requirements in Loocey. We cover how to find solicitations that require CMMC Level 2 Self-Assessment or Level 2 C3PAO certification, as well as how to exclude RFQs with CMMC requirements and create a saved view for quick access.

Step by step

The walkthrough covered in the video, written out so you can follow along inside Loocey.

1. CMMC is becoming an essential part of DLA and some contracts now require CMMC certification not only for the manufacturers, but for suppliers as well. Currently, we see 3 types of CMMC requirements, Level 1 Self-Assessment, Level 2 Self-Assessment and Level 2 – C3PAO which is a certification based on Third-Party Assessment.
2. Hence, it’s important to at least make sure you either qualify for such contracts or we’ll show you how you can filter out solicitations that require CMMCs in Loocey.
3. To begin, navigate to the DLA RFQs board.
4. Next, click on the Filters option to refine your search.
5. Add a new filter and select the CMMC column.
6. For condition select “In” and then for values select both Level 2 – Self Assessment and Level 2 C3PAO and hit apply, this will allow us to see which RFQs require these CMMC levels.
7. But in our case, let’s see we actually don’t want to work on any RFQs with CMMC requirements.
8. In that case, let’s open the Filters again and instead of “In” we’ll select “Is Null” this way it’ll only show us RFQs without any CMMC requirements.
9. Click Apply to update the table results.
10. As the filters are applied, the table will refresh and display only RFQs without CMMC requirements.
11. To save this filtered search for future use, click on the Save As New button.
12. Enter a name for your new view—let’s call it “No CMMC RFQs”—then click Save.
13. The new view will now appear as a tab, allowing you to quickly access these filtered RFQs anytime.
14. When you return to the RFQs list, simply click on the saved view, and Loocey will automatically apply the filter for you.
