Get certified the first time, and stay certified for as long as you hold the contract.
CMMC is now a contract requirement across the Defense Industrial Base, and the contractors that hold consequential DoD work cannot afford a failed assessment. Maverc is a Registered Provider Organization that has worked with DIB contractors since the framework's earliest drafts, taking them from scoping confusion to a first-time-pass C3PAO assessment and keeping them certified long after the auditor leaves.
Authorized by The Cyber AB to advise organizations preparing for CMMC certification.
Most CMMC failures aren't technology problems. They're documentation and evidence problems: controls that exist on paper but can't be proven, scopes that quietly expand to cover the whole company, and SSPs written by people who never ran the systems they describe. We close those gaps with an RPO-led gap assessment scored against the DoD Assessment Methodology, CUI enclaves built on Microsoft 365 GCC High, Azure Government, or AWS GovCloud, control implementation your team can speak to in an assessor interview, and continuous monitoring that keeps the program audit-ready after certification.
Each engagement is scoped to your environment — these are the building blocks we draw from.
Our SSPs are written control-by-control with concrete implementation language, named system owners, and pointers to the evidence that proves each control runs in production. Mock assessors score them against the same DoD methodology a C3PAO uses, so the gaps surface in our office, not in yours during the live assessment.
Most contractors do not need their entire enterprise in scope. A purpose-built enclave, typically Microsoft 365 GCC High plus a hardened endpoint set with strict DLP, cuts the assessment surface by 70 to 90 percent and pays for itself in reduced compliance overhead within the first year. We architect, deploy, and harden the enclave, including identity, conditional access, eDiscovery, and data loss prevention.
We map shared controls across NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS so your engineering team instruments evidence once and reuses it across every audit. Less duplicate work, fewer interruptions to delivery, lower cost per certification.
Audit logs, vulnerability scans, configuration baselines, MFA coverage, training completion, all collected automatically into a controls dashboard your assessor and your CISO can both read. No more scrambling for evidence the week before an audit.
Purpose-built CUI enclaves on Microsoft 365 GCC High, Azure Government, or AWS GovCloud — engineered, hardened, and assessor-ready.
Clear, executive-grade artifacts your team, your auditors, and your customers can actually use.
Every CMMC engagement follows a deliberate arc — here's exactly what your team experiences at each stage, and how Maverc shows up.
Uncertain — "Are we Level 1, 2, or 3?"
Conflicting guidance from primes and unclear data sensitivity
Plain-English level determination tied to your active contracts and SPRS posture
Overwhelmed — "Where does our CUI actually live?"
Shadow IT, sprawling endpoints, and undocumented data paths
Hands-on CUI scoping with annotated data-flow and asset inventory deliverables
Cautiously optimistic — sees a path forward
Budget pressure and fear of over- or under-scoping the boundary
Side-by-side architecture options with cost, timeline, and contract-impact ranking
Heads-down, building real momentum
Migration complexity, US-person handling, and IL4 configuration
Engineering-led GCC High + Azure Gov deployment wired to your existing stack
Reassured — accountability is finally clear
Unclear ownership between internal IT and providers
Maverc serves as your CMMC-aligned MSSP with an SRM mapped to 800-171A and assessment-ready artifacts
Focused — evidence is coming together
Policy-vs-practice drift and the burden of artifact collection
SSP, POA&M, and evidence pipelines built and continuously refreshed against your environment
Confident — the evidence speaks for itself
Fear of surprise findings or assessor pushback on assessment day
Pre-assessment dry run plus C3PAO liaison through certification day and sustainment
Identify FCI versus CUI, define the assessment boundary, and score every 800-171 control against the official DoD methodology to produce a prioritized remediation roadmap with realistic effort and cost.
Stand up a hardened CUI enclave on FedRAMP Moderate (or higher) infrastructure, implement the technical controls, FIPS-validated crypto, MFA, audit logging, vulnerability management, configuration baselines, and author policies that match what the systems actually do.
Run a full mock assessment that mirrors the C3PAO workflow, fix what it surfaces, then coordinate the live assessment from kickoff through certification, supporting evidence requests and staff interviews end to end.
Operate continuous controls monitoring, manage POA&M closure inside the 180-day window, and keep the program audit-ready through annual affirmations and the next assessment cycle.
No, and that is intentional. Maverc is a Registered Provider Organization (RPO). The CMMC ecosystem prohibits the same firm from preparing you and assessing you. As your RPO, we get you ready and coordinate with an authorized C3PAO so you pass cleanly on the first attempt.
Typically 4 to 9 months depending on starting maturity, scope size, enclave architecture decisions, and remediation effort. Organizations starting from a clean GCC High enclave move faster; organizations remediating sprawling on-prem environments take longer. We give you a realistic timeline after the gap assessment.
No. You only need CUI handling moved into a CMMC-aligned environment. We help you scope precisely, design the enclave, and migrate only the workflows that actually touch CUI, leaving the rest of the business out of scope.
It depends on scope, current maturity, and chosen architecture. Most small DIB contractors spend in the low to mid six figures across consulting, tooling, enclave licensing, and the C3PAO assessment itself. We size the engagement against your contract value and remediation backlog up front, no open-ended retainers.
Yes. We map shared controls so NIST 800-171, SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and PCI evidence is collected once and reused across audits, common for DIB contractors who also serve commercial regulated markets.
