CMMC Consulting
CMMC Level 2 readiness, gap analysis, and program build — structured support for defense contractors pursuing certification.
CMMC Compliance Without the Guesswork
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 requires demonstrated implementation of 110 NIST SP 800-171 practices. For most defense contractors, closing the gap between current state and certification-ready is a multi-month program requiring dedicated expertise. Cover6 has done this work — we know where organizations get stuck and how to build durable compliance programs that survive assessments.
Our CMMC consulting services span the full readiness lifecycle: from gap assessment and System Security Plan development through policy implementation, evidence library construction, and pre-assessment validation. We work as your Acting CISO or advisory partner, building the program alongside your team.
What We Deliver
Gap Assessment
Structured evaluation of your current posture against all 110 NIST 800-171 practices — producing a prioritized remediation roadmap.
System Security Plan (SSP)
Complete SSP documentation describing how your organization implements each practice, scoped to your environment and CUI boundary.
Plan of Action & Milestones
POA&M development for practices not yet fully implemented, with realistic timelines and resource estimates.
Policy & Procedure Library
Development or review of required security policies, procedures, and supporting documentation aligned to CMMC practice requirements.
Evidence Library Construction
Build the audit-ready evidence repository your C3PAO will review — screenshots, configs, logs, and artifacts organized by practice family.
Pre-Assessment Readiness Review
Internal assessment simulation to identify remaining gaps before your C3PAO engagement, reducing assessment risk and rework.
Our Process
A structured engagement model built on real CMMC program delivery experience.
Scoping & CUI Boundary Definition
Map your Controlled Unclassified Information flows and define the assessment scope — systems, personnel, and locations in scope for CMMC.
Gap Assessment
Evaluate each of the 110 NIST 800-171 practices against your current implementation and produce a scored gap report.
Roadmap & Prioritization
Build a sequenced remediation roadmap that addresses critical gaps first while balancing operational constraints.
Program Build
Execute the roadmap — developing policies, configuring controls, building the SSP, and documenting evidence as work progresses.
Pre-Assessment Validation
Conduct a final internal review against CMMC assessment objectives to confirm readiness before engaging your C3PAO.
