Time to Gain CMMC Compliance is Now

Attention businesses: To remain eligible for Department of Defense (DoD) contracts, compliance with the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is mandatory. Key deadlines for compliance are rapidly approaching:

• Effective Date: The rule implementing CMMC 2.0 is anticipated to take full effect by 2025, with some contracts already requiring compliance during the phased rollout in 2024.
• Pre-Award Requirement: You must meet the applicable CMMC level before being awarded any DoD contract that includes CMMC requirements.

Businesses handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) or participating in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) are urged to act immediately. Certification can be a multi-month process involving assessments, gap analyses, and remediation.

Secure your place in the defense supply chain by starting your compliance journey now. Delays could result in lost contracts or opportunities. Prepare today to protect your business and contribute to national security.
