Nomyad May 2026 Bootcamp... VSM changed. FPDS changed. CMMC changed. Now what?

CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) requirements are evolving. These aren't small tweaks. These are fundamental shifts that impact the entire contracting lifecycle—both pre-award and post-award. And if you're not staying ahead of these changes? You're getting left behind.

9 contracts in 4 months - Atley's story is one you need to hear
I want to introduce you to Atley Settles out of Georgia. Four months ago, Atley had never heard of DLA. He drives trucks for a living — 12-hour shifts on a flip-flop schedule — and like a lot of people in this community, he was looking for something he could build for himself with that same energy he was giving his employer. His lady came across the DLA product side on social media and brought it to him. He did his research, liked what he saw, and got to work. Four months in, Atley has 9 contracts under his belt. Here's what he said about the journey: "I'm actually seeing a transformation from when I first started to now. And I can imagine what's going to be coming for me down the road, and it's exciting." What makes Atley's story stand out isn't just the wins. It's the approach. He started small, got his reps in, learned every aspect of the fulfillment process himself, and built from there. He watches the training videos step by step, side by side with his work, and it shows in his results. His plan from here? Scale to 5–10 contracts a month, replace his full-time income, and eventually bring people into the business who have been watching him build. That's what this is about. If you're ready to build something like Atley is building, here are your two next steps: 👉 Try Contrax AI free for 7 days — the tool Atley uses to find and analyze winning bids: https://www.contraxai.tech 👉 Book your spot at Nomyad's May 30–31 Bootcamp (25% off right now) — two days covering VSM, CMMC, Contrax AI workflows, and the best practices that are working right now: https://info.nomyadllc.com/book-nomyad Atley's in the early stage and already seeing results. You could be having this same conversation a few months from now. Let's go, Day
2Lyons DIBBS account got suspended - here’s how we fixed it
A real-life example of why you need to make sure your traceability is on point. Attached is a screenshot of my dad and myself. I asked him if everything was all good with our DIBBS account, and he told me DIBBS suspended the account because they asked for traceability on a contract from 2023. Luckily, we have all of the documentation for the contract, and our account was unlocked in under 24 hours. This is a real-life example of why you need to have all your ducks in a row when it comes to traceability. If you want the same checklist that we used at 2Lyons to pass DLA’s surprise audit, click the link below to book a call with us and redeem your 25% discount available for a limited time. We also have our May 2026 Ignored to Award Bootcamp coming up May 30-31st, @11AM EST. Redeem 25% off HERE
