Track the NIST SP 800-171 requirements that underpin CMMC, maintain a System Security Plan and POA&M, and keep evidence organized ahead of a self-assessment or a third-party (C3PAO) assessment.
Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information means meeting the full NIST SP 800-171 control set — and proving it, not just claiming it.
Your System Security Plan must accurately describe every control's implementation, and your Plan of Action & Milestones must stay current as gaps close.
Higher CMMC levels require an assessment by an authorized C3PAO, where disorganized evidence becomes an expensive problem.
Requirements flow down your supply chain, so you have to manage not just your own posture but your subcontractors' too.
Self-assessment scores against NIST SP 800-171 must be tracked and defensible — a moving number as you remediate.
An assessment is a snapshot; the obligation is continuous. Drift between assessments puts contracts at risk.
Treat your assessment as the output of a living program, not a last-minute scramble.
Identify what information you handle and which systems are in scope, which determines your CMMC level and the applicable requirements.
Connect each of the security requirements to tests and the evidence that demonstrates implementation — not just policy text.
Keep a System Security Plan that reflects how each requirement is actually implemented, updated as your environment changes.
Document open gaps, owners, and milestones in a Plan of Action & Milestones, and watch your score improve as you close them.
Track the requirements that flow down to your supply chain so partner posture doesn't become your blind spot.
Keep evidence organized the way an assessor expects, so a self-assessment or C3PAO review is a review — not a rebuild.
Every security requirement mapped to tests and evidence with clear status.
A living SSP that reflects how each requirement is implemented.
Document gaps, owners, and milestones, and track them to closure.
Follow your self-assessment score against NIST SP 800-171 as you remediate.
Track requirements that flow down to subcontractors in your supply chain.
Catch drift between assessments so readiness stays continuous.
One evidence graph, reused across frameworks — so the work you do now keeps paying off as you grow.
Federal Contract Information maps to a smaller baseline (based on FAR 52.204-21), while Controlled Unclassified Information requires the full NIST SP 800-171 control set — which drives a higher CMMC level.
Not always. Lower levels can rely on self-assessment; higher levels require an assessment by an authorized C3PAO. We help you keep evidence organized for either path.
The System Security Plan documents how you implement each requirement; the Plan of Action & Milestones tracks open gaps and your plan to remediate them. We keep both current and tied to live evidence.
No. We provide software to help you prepare and stay ready. Assessments and any certification are performed by authorized assessors — we make no certification or assessor claims for ourselves.
