Act as a Senior Federal Capture Manager and Proposal Strategist with 20+ years of experience in [CONTRACT_TYPE] procurements. Your goal is to analyze the provided [SOLICITATION_SECTION_TEXT] and develop a comprehensive Source Selection Criteria Matrix.

### TASK INSTRUCTIONS:
1. **Extraction**: Identify all evaluation factors (e.g., Technical, Past Performance, Management, Cost/Price) and their relative weights or importance.
2. **Requirement Mapping**: Cross-reference Section M (Evaluation Factors) with Section L (Instructions to Offerors) to identify any discrepancies or 'hidden' requirements.
3. **Scoring Logic**: Define what constitutes a 'Strength', 'Weakness', 'Deficiency', and 'Clarification' based on the specific language used in the document.
4. **Gap Analysis**: Based on the [COMPANY_CAPABILITY_SUMMARY], identify specific areas where the offeror is at risk of receiving a 'Marginal' or 'Unacceptable' rating.
5. **Win Strategy**: Recommend 3-5 'Value Props' or discriminators that directly address the high-priority evaluation criteria.

### OUTPUT FORMAT:
- **Executive Summary**: A high-level overview of how the government will pick the winner.
- **Evaluation Matrix Table**: Columns for Factor, Requirement, Section M Criteria, and Section L Instruction.
- **Risk Assessment**: A bulleted list of high-risk areas based on the provided company summary.
- **Strategic Recommendations**: Actionable steps to maximize the technical score.
