"End-to-end readiness — gap analysis to C3PAO assessment"
Full-Engagement CMMC Level 2 Readiness for DoD Contractors
VIS LLC's CMMC readiness engagement takes DoD contractors from initial gap assessment through C3PAO assessment preparation — implementing the required NIST 800-171 controls, with technical controls built as infrastructure as code so the environment stays immutable and continuously compliant, developing the System Security Plan, improving the SPRS score, and preparing the evidence packages a C3PAO assessor will request.
Most DoD contractors engage us because they have a contract at risk, an assessment scheduled, or a prime contractor applying pressure. We work efficiently to close the most critical gaps first — the ones that most directly threaten your SPRS score and contract eligibility.
Key Features
Initial CMMC gap analysis (all 110 controls)
We start every engagement with a full 110-control gap analysis to establish your current compliance posture and SPRS baseline.
SPRS score baseline and improvement
We document your current SPRS score, identify the highest-impact gaps, and implement remediations to improve your score.
Immutable, IaC-based implementation
Technical controls are defined in infrastructure as code and enforced with Azure Policy, so systems are rebuilt from a reviewed baseline instead of drifting — compliance enforced by configuration, not maintained by procedure.
CUI enclave design and implementation
We design and implement a minimum-scope CUI enclave to reduce your assessment surface area and simplify control implementation.
System Security Plan development
We develop the SSP your C3PAO assessor will review — written to reflect what your systems can technically demonstrate.
C3PAO assessment preparation and evidence packaging
We prepare the evidence packages, conduct a pre-assessment walkthrough, and brief your team on assessor expectations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is CMMC readiness consulting?
CMMC readiness consulting is an engagement where a consultant works alongside your team to implement the 110 NIST SP 800-171 requirements behind CMMC Level 2. It includes gap assessment, control implementation, SSP development, evidence collection, and preparation for your Level 2 assessment, by self-assessment or by a C3PAO.
What is included in CMMC readiness consulting?
VIS LLC CMMC readiness consulting includes initial gap analysis, CUI scoping and enclave design, control implementation as infrastructure as code, System Security Plan (SSP) development, POA&M management, a pre-assessment walkthrough, and evidence package preparation for your CMMC assessment.
How long does it take to reach CMMC Level 2 readiness?
CMMC Level 2 readiness typically takes 6–18 months. Organizations with a well-documented NIST 800-171 program and a defined CUI enclave can reach assessment readiness in 6–9 months. Organizations starting from scratch — no policies, no SSP, no enclave — typically need 12–18 months depending on staff capacity and budget.
Do I need a consultant to achieve CMMC Level 2?
You are not required to use a consultant for CMMC Level 2 — you can self-implement all 110 NIST 800-171 controls. However, most small and midsize defense contractors do not have the internal expertise to correctly scope CUI boundaries, implement all 14 control families, and build defensible evidence documentation. A CMMC consultant can significantly reduce the risk of assessment failure.
