Developed evidence collection approach;

Gained access to the OSC's relevant documentation.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

During the planning phase, the Lead Assessor must ensure that evidence gaps are identified and documented before assessment execution. This ensures that the OSC is aware of missing or insufficient evidence and can address them prior to final scoring.

Exact Extracts:

CMMC Assessment Guide: ''During planning, assessors and OSC should confirm sufficiency of evidence and identify/document any evidence gaps.''

''The planning phase ensures readiness to proceed with the assessment, including identifying gaps and establishing how they will be addressed.''

Why the other options are not correct:

B: Appeals are addressed post-assessment, not in planning.

C: Assessment costs are agreed upon contractually, not part of the assessment planning phase.

D: FedRAMP equivalency determination is part of scope validation, not general planning.


CMMC Assessment Guide -- Level 2, Version 2.13: Assessment planning activities (pp. 5--8).

Determining FedRAMP MODERATE equivalency sounds specific, but I wonder if it fits into the planning phase like the other elements we've discussed.

I feel like estimating a ROM cost could be important too, but I can't recall if it was specifically mentioned in our materials.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about discussing assessment appeals in a similar practice question. Could that be relevant here?

I think we might need to identify and document evidence gaps, right? That seems crucial for ensuring we have everything covered.
