Question/Comment

Is it expected that we use an external 3PAO for FedRAMP assessment, or would the GSA be our independent assessor?

MichelleMcNellis commented 5 years ago

GSA will facilitate the initial LiSaaS assessment for a 1 year ATO. Offerors will be required to work with GSA and submit requested documentation expeditiously to achieve the initial 1 year ATO. FedRAMP Tailored assessment of the implemented controls may be performed by an independent trusted third-party, a FedRAMP Accredited Third-Party Assessment Organization (3PAO) at the vendor’s option and cost.
