CMMC Prep & Readiness for the Defense Industrial Base

Be CMMC-ready before it costs you contracts.

Phase 2 of the CMMC rollout begins November 2026 — new DoD contracts involving CUI will require third-party Level 2 certification, and assessor slots are booking 12–18 months out. WAR Consulting Group gets contractors and subcontractors from "we should look into this" to assessment-ready.

The Clock Is Real Typical Level 2 remediation takes 9–18 months. Starting now means certifying on your schedule — not your prime's.

What We Do

A clear path from gap to certification-ready.

Three engagements that map to where you are in the CMMC journey — scoped for small and mid-size contractors, without big-firm overhead.

CMMC Gap Assessment

Know exactly where you stand against Level 1 or Level 2 — and what it will take to close the distance.

  • FCI / CUI scoping and data-flow mapping
  • Full NIST SP 800-171 gap analysis (110 controls)
  • Honest SPRS score and prioritized findings
  • Budget-aware remediation roadmap

Remediation & Readiness

We close the gaps with you — documentation and technical controls both, because assessors check for both.

  • System Security Plan (SSP) development
  • POA&M creation and closure management
  • Policies, procedures, and evidence packages
  • Technical remediation: vulnerability management, hardening, monitoring

Assessment Prep & Ongoing Compliance

Walk into your C3PAO assessment knowing the outcome — and stay compliant after the certificate is issued.

  • Mock assessments and evidence dry-runs
  • C3PAO selection and scheduling support
  • Annual affirmations and continuous compliance
  • Fractional security leadership for the DIB
Who It's For

Built for the supply chain, not the primes.

The big primes have compliance departments. You have contracts to deliver. We work with:

How We Work

A straight line from findings to certification.

01

Scope

Map where FCI and CUI actually live. A tight scope is the single biggest cost-saver in CMMC.

02

Assess

Score all 110 controls honestly — the assessment you want to fail is the internal one.

03

Remediate

Close gaps in priority order: documentation, technical controls, and the evidence to prove both.

04

Certify

Mock-assess, fix the last mile, and walk into the C3PAO assessment with no surprises.

Cybersecurity & Compliance

We've lived on your side of the requirement.

WAR Consulting Group brings more than a decade of cybersecurity and compliance experience inside the defense industrial base — including General Dynamics and Teledyne / FLIR, where NIST SP 800-171 and DFARS flow-downs weren't a consulting deliverable, they were the day job.

That means your readiness plan is written by people who have built these programs inside a defense contractor: the real cost of controls, what assessors actually look for, and how to get to compliant without stopping the shop floor.
