What we do
Six service lines. One discipline.
Pre-assessment support built with the rigor of formal assessment in mind. We scope each engagement around the NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC requirements DoD contractors are expected to implement, document, and demonstrate.
01 / READINESS
Compliance and Readiness Roadmap
A structured 30-day diagnostic that benchmarks your current posture against CMMC Level 1 or Level 2 and produces a defensible remediation plan with sequencing, cost estimates, and timeline.

How we work
Three phases. No surprises.
Our methodology is transparent, predictable, and fixed-fee. You know what each phase produces, what it costs, and when it ends - before the work begins.
I
Phase one
Diagnose
Two-week scoping engagement. We map your CUI flows, contract obligations, and current controls. You receive a CMMC posture report and a sequenced remediation plan.
II
Phase two
Remediate
Eight to twenty-four weeks depending on complexity. We work alongside your IT team or MSP to close gaps, generate evidence, and produce your SSP and POA&M to assessor standard.
III
Phase three
Validate
Mock assessment by certified assessors using DoD methodology. You enter your formal Level 2 assessment with a clear, evidence-backed picture of where you stand.
110 controls. One boundary. The math behind a Level 2 assessment.
NIST SP 800-171 defines the security requirements that underpin CMMC Level 2. Understanding the 110 controls, 320 assessment objectives, and your CUI boundary is foundational to building a defensible compliance posture and preparing for assessment.
