NIST 800-171 & CMMC readiness.

CMMC is now a gate to defense work. We get you ready for it: a NIST 800-171 gap assessment, the documentation a certified assessor expects, and the remediation to close gaps, with our cleared technical lead running the security side and our operations side keeping the program on track.

The Problem

CMMC is now a gate, not a nice-to-have.

Defense work increasingly requires demonstrated NIST 800-171 compliance and a CMMC level, and the requirement shows up in the solicitation, not after the award. Firms that treat it as paperwork to handle later find themselves locked out of the deals they were built to win.

We get you assessment-ready. We run the NIST 800-171 gap assessment, build the documentation a certified CMMC assessor expects, and drive the remediation that closes real gaps, so you walk into the formal assessment prepared instead of exposed. We prepare you for certification; the certification itself is issued by an accredited CMMC Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO), not by us.

What we execute

Ready for the assessment, not scrambling for it.

Gap assessment

A control-by-control assessment against NIST 800-171, with a scored read on where your environment actually stands.

SSP & POA&M

The System Security Plan and Plan of Action & Milestones a certified assessor expects, written to hold up under scrutiny.

Remediation, technically led

We coordinate and drive the technical and procedural fixes that close real gaps, with our cleared technical lead, a NIST and CMMC subject-matter expert, running the security side.

Assessment readiness

Preparation for the formal CMMC assessment, so you walk in with evidence organized and surprises eliminated. The assessment is conducted by an accredited C3PAO.

The motion

From gap to assessment-ready, every control covered.

How a typical engagement runs

01

Gap assessment

We score your environment control by control against NIST 800-171, producing a gap register and an SPRS-ready baseline.

02

Remediation plan

We build a prioritized roadmap that closes critical gaps first, with named owners and realistic dates, not a wish list.

03

Evidence build

We produce the SSP, POA&M, and supporting artifacts assessors require, written to hold up under scrutiny.

04

Assessment-ready

We prepare you for the formal CMMC assessment with a certified C3PAO so you arrive with evidence organized and no surprises waiting.

Our operating model

We advise. Then we execute and carry it to completion.

A consistent operating model on every engagement: scoped to outcomes, built with dated evidence and named owners, and handed off as something you can run.

Step 01

Discover & scope

We start with the real situation: your goals, constraints, and what's actually in place. We scope the engagement to outcomes, not hours.

Step 02

Build & execute

We do the work: build the system, run the process, produce the artifacts. Dated evidence and named owners at every step.

Step 03

Operate & prove

We operate what we build and measure it against the outcome you hired us for. Progress reported in evidence, not adjectives.

Step 04

Hand off & sustain

We leave you with a motion you can run: documentation, cadence, and clarity, so the results hold after the engagement ends.

Where this leads next

Compliance is one pillar of federal delivery. It connects directly to Government Readiness Assessment, Federal, Defense & Intelligence Systems, and Cloud Technical Operations.
