- In this section, ensure you address:

- If you are aware of a ‘small m’ solution or partial solution to your capability gap, identify it here

- This includes those from other DoD Component, other U.S. Government agency/department, or allied/partner nation sources, in addition to commercial sources (COTS/GOTS/NDI)

- Discuss any impacts to safety, survivability, personnel, training, logistics, communications, etc. (i.e. DOT_LPF-P impacts) as a result of adding these ‘small m’ material solutions to the formation

- If applicable, discuss any market survey or similar related information developed by the Requirement Sponsor—specifically related to or applicable to new material development (‘big M’) that may need to take place

- Similar to the DOT_LPF-P impacts of ‘small m’ material solutions discussed above, attempt to identify any such impacts for potential new material development solutions (‘big M’)
