State the arrangement on the order form. The order mechanic ## Six terms. Every unit. Every quote. ### Quote valid through December 31, 2026 The price on the quote is the price on the invoice, through the last day of the year. ### Invoice on order The invoice issues when the order lands, so funds obligate in 2026 whatever the delivery date. ### Payment Terms Net-30 terms apply to all advisory, assessment, review, and subscription services. All training classes and course seats are payable upon enrollment. Purchase-card orders settle at checkout. ### Delivery in 2026 or Q1 2027 Name the delivery window on the order form. Cohorts and reviews book into named slots. ### 12-month credit, in writing A deferred order carries a credit that expires 12 months from the invoice date. The expiry prints on the quote and the invoice. ### No promotion. PO-ready. Every unit ships at one price on a purchase order or a card. No coupon field exists on the order path. The standing Adversary Index terms print on the quote: 10 percent for multi-year prepayment on Tier 1 and Tier 2, and 15 percent for government buyers. Federal readiness ## Ready for the contracting officer - SAM registration active; UEI and CAGE on file; W-9 on request. - Woman-owned, veteran-led small business. - Listed in the CISA NICCS training catalog. - Operating since 2002. Treadstone 71 LLC. - Only-source justification paragraph supplied at right; paste it into the memo. - Mutual NDA available for TAI Tier 3, sovereign delivery, and any review that touches client data. Only-source justification · paste-ready Treadstone 71 LLC provides intelligence tradecraft instruments that no other source offers as an integrated set. STEMPLES Plus is a proprietary framework that scores an adversary's operating environment across its Social, Technical, Economic, Military, Political, Legal, Educational, and Security dimensions and the added Plus factors. The ASA Evidence Standard, published September 15, 2026, grades evidence across 30 factors in 9 clusters and returns a tri-score that keeps verified fact apart from adversary claim. The Adversary Index publishes a recurring composite score for 42 named adversaries against a rubric shipped with the product, with quarterly releases dated July 15 and October 5, 2026. The 66-technique Advanced Structured Analytic Techniques arsenal supplies deterministic analytic models aligned to ICD 203 and a Kent-style probability spectrum. The instruments originate with Treadstone 71, carry the firm's trademarks and authorship, and reach the buyer only through Treadstone 71. No competing vendor delivers the combination of a published evidence standard, a recurring adversary index, and a structured-technique arsenal.

Treadstone 71 signature block Before you order ## Six questions buyers ask Can I buy under the purchase-card threshold?Yes. Online seats, on-demand certifications, and course stacks sit under the $15,000 micro-purchase threshold in effect since October 1, 2025, so a card holder orders without competitive quotes. The fixed-quote units are scoped to a stated price on request, and several fit under the same ceiling. What happens at the continuing-resolution cliff on December 11?Funds obligated on a purchase order before the cliff stay obligated. Order now, and delivery proceeds regardless of the December funding outcome. Orders placed after a lapse wait for the next appropriation. Can I obligate now and take delivery later?Yes. Order in 2026 and schedule delivery in 2026 or into Q1 2027. A deferred order carries a 12-month credit from the invoice date, stated in writing on the quote and the invoice. Is this a sole-source buy?The federal readiness block above supplies an only-source justification paragraph built on STEMPLES Plus, the ASA Evidence Standard, The Adversary Index, and the 66-technique Advanced Structured Analytic Techniques. Paste it into a brand-name or only-source justification memo. Your contracting officer decides the vehicle. What delivery formats do you offer?Online seats, private cohorts, on-demand self-paced certifications, sovereign on-site delivery by RFP, prepaid consulting-day blocks, and seat banks drawn over 12 months. Do the certifications carry CPE?Yes. The on-demand Generative AI Cyber Intelligence Tradecraft certification carries 52 CPE and the Generative AI Certified Cyber CounterIntelligence Analyst carries 40 CPE. Certificates of completion state the hours for CISSP, CISM, and CISA year-end cycles. Request a fixed quote ## Name the unit. The quote returns in two business days. One email starts the order. The quote holds through December 31, 2026, and delivery books into 2026 or Q1 2027. This email address is being protected from spambots.
