If you handle CUI and haven’t started your CMMC journey, you’re already behind. Every month you wait is a month closer to losing contract eligibility, or worse, facing legal liability for false compliance claims.
And it’s not just the DoD asking. Primes like Oshkosh Defense and Fincantieri are already flowing CMMC requirements down to their Wisconsin supply chains. If your prime sends a compliance questionnaire tomorrow, can you answer it?
Your Path to CMMC Certification in 3 Steps
We take the complexity off your plate so you can focus on what you do best...
Manufacturing, Engineering, and Winning Contracts!
Step 1: Assess
We Find Out Exactly Where You Stand
We perform a comprehensive gap analysis against NIST 800-171, score your current environment, identify where your CUI lives and moves, and deliver a clear, prioritized remediation roadmap. No jargon, no confusion, just a plain-language report that tells you exactly what needs to happen and in what order.
Step 2: Remediate
We Close the Gaps and Build Your Compliance Foundation
Our team implements the technical controls, builds your documentation package (SSP, POA&Ms, policies, procedures), deploys the security tools, configures your CUI enclave, and trains your team. We handle the 110 controls so your people aren’t pulled off production.
Step 3: Certify
We Prepare You for Assessment and Stand With You Through It
We run a mock assessment to catch anything an assessor would flag, prepare your evidence packages, coach your team on what to expect, and provide hands-on support during your C3PAO assessment. After certification, we manage ongoing compliance so you never fall out of standard.

Which CMMC Level Do You Need?
Your required level depends on the type of federal data you handle. Here’s a quick breakdown
CMMC Level 1 Foundational
You need Level 1 if: You handle Federal Contract Information (FCI) only—things like contract terms, billing data, and delivery schedules. No classified technical data.
What’s involved: 17 basic cybersecurity practices aligned with FAR 52.204-21. Annual self-assessment (no third-party audit required).
Typical timeline: 2–4 months from assessment to certification.
How we help: We perform your gap analysis, implement any missing controls, build your documentation, and prepare your annual self-assessment submission.
CMMC Level 2 Advanced
You need Level 2 if: You handle Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)—technical drawings, material specifications, engineering data, test results, or any information marked CUI by the DoD or your prime.
What’s involved: All 110 security controls from NIST SP 800-171. Third-party C3PAO assessment required for most contracts. Minimum score of 88/110 for conditional certification.
Typical timeline: 6–18 months from assessment to certification (don’t wait).
How we help: Full-service engagement: gap analysis, technical implementation, CUI enclave configuration, documentation package, employee training, mock assessment, C3PAO assessment support, and ongoing managed compliance.
Not Sure Which Level You Need?
Many contractors don’t know whether they handle FCI, CUI, or both. That’s completely normal—and it’s exactly why our free assessment starts with data classification. We’ll help you identify what type of federal data flows through your organization and which CMMC level your contracts actually require.
The Real Cost Isn’t Compliance.
It’s Losing Your Contracts.
Let’s put this in perspective. If your DoD contracts generate $1 million a year and CMMC compliance costs $100,000
that’s a 10:1 return on protecting your revenue. Now compare that to the alternative:
Cost of Compliance
Cost of Compliance
Cost of Non-Compliance
✅ Predictable investment with clear ROI
✅ Retain contract eligibility and grow DoD revenue
✅ Stronger cybersecurity protects your entire operation
✅ Competitive advantage when primes compare bidders
✅ Peace of mind on legal exposure

Common Questions About CMMC Compliance
Q: How long does it take to get CMMC certified?
Level 1 can often be achieved in 2–4 months. Level 2 typically takes 6–18 months depending on your starting point. Because C3PAO assessment wait times are currently running 6–8 months, we recommend starting immediately to secure your place in the assessment queue.
Q: What’s the difference between Level 1 and Level 2?
Level 1 covers 17 basic cybersecurity practices for protecting Federal Contract Information (FCI)—things like contract terms and pricing. Level 2 requires all 110 controls from NIST SP 800-171 for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)—technical data, engineering specs, test results. If your contract involves anything marked CUI, you’ll need Level 2.
Q: Do I really need CMMC? What happens if I wait?
If you do any work for the Department of Defense—directly or as a subcontractor—CMMC is becoming mandatory. Phase 1 enforcement is already active. By November 2026, most contracts involving CUI will require third-party Level 2 certification. Waiting means longer wait times for assessment, higher costs for rushed remediation, and the risk that a prime drops you from their supply chain before you’re ready.
Q: Will this disrupt our production?
We’ve built our process specifically for manufacturers who can’t afford downtime. Most of the implementation work happens alongside your normal operations. We work around your schedule, and our local presence means we can be on your shop floor when you need us.
Q: What if we fail the assessment?
Our goal is to make sure you don’t. We run a full mock assessment before you engage a C3PAO, catching any issues in advance. If a gap is identified during the real assessment, CMMC allows conditional certification (minimum score 88/110) with a Plan of Action & Milestones giving you 180 days to remediate. We manage that entire process.
Q: We already have an IT provider. Can you still help?
Absolutely. We can work alongside your existing IT team or provider, focusing specifically on the CMMC compliance layer. Many of our clients have general IT support in place but need specialized CMMC expertise to get across the finish line.
