Preparing for CMMC Compliance

Every CMMC engagement begins with understanding your contractual obligations. We analyze your DoD contracts and subcontracts to determine whether CMMC Level 1 (FCI only) or Level 2 (CUI) applies, then map exactly where controlled data enters, resides, and exits your environment.

Deliverables:

• CUI/FCI data flow mapping and asset inventory
• CMMC assessment scope boundary definition
• Required CMMC level determination with contract traceability

We perform a comprehensive control-by-control assessment of your current security posture against all 110 requirements in NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 across 14 control families. Each control is evaluated for implementation status, evidence availability, and effectiveness.

Deliverables:

• Full 110-control gap analysis matrix with implementation status
• SPRS score calculation and risk-ranked deficiency summary
• Prioritized remediation roadmap with estimated timelines

CMMC assessors require documented policies and procedures for every control family. We evaluate your existing documentation against NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC assessment objectives, then develop or revise the policies, procedures, and system-level artifacts needed to demonstrate compliance.

Deliverables:

• System Security Plan (SSP) development or revision
• Security policy suite aligned to all 14 NIST SP 800-171 families
• Standard operating procedures (SOPs) for key security processes

We verify that your technical safeguards meet CMMC and NIST SP 800-171 requirements, and guide implementation of any missing controls. This includes validating access controls, encryption, audit logging, endpoint protection, network segmentation, and multi-factor authentication configurations.

Deliverables:

• MFA, encryption, and access control configuration validation
• Audit logging and SIEM/monitoring verification
• Network architecture and segmentation review

For any gaps identified during the assessment, we develop a structured Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) that outlines each deficiency, the corrective action required, responsible parties, and target completion dates. We then support your team through remediation execution to close each item.

Deliverables:

• Detailed POA&M with risk-prioritized remediation actions
• Remediation timeline with milestones and resource requirements
• Ongoing tracking and corrective action validation

Before you engage a C3PAO for your official CMMC assessment, we conduct a thorough mock assessment simulating the actual evaluation process. This final review validates that all controls are implemented, evidence artifacts are organized, and your team is prepared to demonstrate compliance under examination.

Deliverables:

• Full mock assessment against CMMC assessment objectives
• Evidence package review and organization
• Staff interview preparation and assessment readiness confirmation
