# RegScale and Carahsoft Promote FedRAMP Modernization

RegScale- and Carahsoft-sponsored material describes FedRAMP modernization concepts, including the 20x model, Revision 5 (Rev. 5), key security indicators (KSIs), and compliance-as-code. The document is promotional and does not establish procurement requirements, funding, or deadlines. For federal agencies, cloud service providers, and third-party assessment organizations, it provides context on approaches that may inform preparation for evolving cloud authorization practices, but it does not announce a new contract or solicitation.

- Cloud service providers and assessment organizations can use the described concepts to assess how continuous assurance and compliance-as-code approaches relate to their existing FedRAMP authorization processes.
- Federal procurement teams may find the material relevant when discussing cloud security authorization with providers, but it does not change agency requirements or create a procurement opportunity.
- The source identifies no contract values, deadlines, or implementation mandates; stakeholders should treat the content as industry-sponsored information rather than official FedRAMP direction.
