Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)

Readiness, Implementation, and Advisory Consulting Services for GovCon

Protect Your Contracts. Secure Your Future.

For many small and mid-sized defense contractors, CMMC feels like another heavy requirement landing on already stretched teams and budgets.
You still have to get it right, but you don’t have to figure it out alone.
At Nexurion, we help small and mid-sized DoD contractors make sense of CMMC, get audit-ready, and do it without unnecessary complexity or big-firm bureaucracy.

This call is for contractors who aren’t sure whether they need Level 1 or Level 2, or who want a clear, assessor-aligned path forward before committing time or budget.

Our CMMC Readiness Approach

A Practical, Assessor-Aligned Path to Readiness

step one

Gap Assessment & Readiness Roadmap

Our goal is to remove guesswork, not create more of it.

We begin by clarifying whether cmmc level 1 or level 2 applies, defining the true fcl/cui scope, and mapping your current state against cmmc practices and nist 800-171 controls. The outcome is a tailored roadmap that shows exactly what needs to be done, in what order, and why to eliminate guesswork from the start.

step two

Engineering & Implementation

Security, compliance, and evidence are matured together, not bolted on at the end. This integrated approach ensures readiness is built intentionally and assessor aligned.

Choose from the implementation services that YOU need.

step three

Audit
Defense

When your team is being assessed, we don't step away.

Our practitioners are on call to help you respond confidently to assessor questions. We stand by our work and help you defend your implementation.

You're never left alone in the hot seat

Parallel Security & Compliance

We focus on integrating:

  • ✓ Technical controls
  • ✓ Policies
  • ✓ All Necessary Documentation

Our goal is to reduce rework and align evidence with how assessors validate controls.

Right-Sized Technology Enablement

Tools are introduced only where they improve readiness outcomes. We help you select and manage the right compliance platform for your environment whether that's some of our partners like Vanta, Compyl, Paramify, Drata, or another fit entirely! We want what works best for YOUR team.

Pre-Assessment Validation

Before facing a C3PAO, we conduct a readiness validation that mirrors assessor expectations. This ensures controls, documentation, and evidence are complete and defensible, so nothing is being seen for the first time during assessment.

Built for Defense Contractors Who Can’t Afford CMMC Confusion

Our service is designed for organizations that:

  • Have active or upcoming DoD contracts
  • Handle FCI or CUI
  • Employ 25–500 people
  • Unsure about CMMC Level 1 or Level 2
  • Want a clear, assessor-aligned path to readiness
  • Contractors who want clarity, not confusion

Why Most CMMC Efforts Struggle

A lot of good companies struggle with CMMC. Not because they don’t care about security, but because readiness often gets stitched together at the end instead of built intentionally

The Problem Isn’t Tools, It’s Fragmented Execution

Most failed or stalled CMMC efforts suffer from:

  • Security and compliance treated as separate workstreams
  • Tool-first decisions without readiness context
  • Policies written without technical alignment
  • Evidence assembled too late
  • No single owner accountable end-to-end

CMMC fails when readiness is bolted together at the end, not built intentionally.

The Nexurion Difference

Veteran-Owned. Mission-Driven. Small Business Focused

As a Sercice Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, we know what it means when contracts are on the line. For us, supporting the defense industrial base isn’t just business: it’s personal.

We understand firsthand the impact CMMC has on small teams and budgets. Our team left big firms to focus on what really matters: helping small businesses succeed without unnecessary complexity.

Clear Guidance. Audit-Ready Results

From gap assessments to audit-ready documentation and implementation support, our team helps you build compliant systems and processes that stand up to formal assessment.

No Overengineering. No Vendor Lock-In

Unlike traditional big-firm approaches, our consultants deliver right-sized solutions tailored for small and mid-sized contractors.

We help you implement the controls you need. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Security and Compliance, Delivered in Parallel

At Nexurion, security and compliance are delivered together, not sequentially.

This means:

  • Technical controls and documentation mature at the same time
  • Evidence aligns with how assessors validate controls
  • Reduced rework and fewer late-stage surprises
  • Faster, calmer readiness
Our approach is designed for real SMB DoD environments, not theoretical models or one-size-fits-all solutions.

No stress. No guesswork. Just a clear path forward.

Built by practitioners who’ve done this before

Our CMMC engagements are led by professionals with hands-on experience supporting defense-aligned environments, including Certified CMMC Professionals (CCPs) and team members with direct experience supporting DoD systems, CUI handling, and regulated environments.

Having practitioners who think like assessors means your controls, documentation, and evidence are aligned from day, not patched together at the end.

The NexurionPromise

While we don’t perform CMMC assessments ourselves, that’s the role of authorized C3PAOs, we make sure you’re ready, calm, and confident when that day comes.

Because when you partner with Nexurion, you’re not just checking boxes. You’re protecting your contracts, your business, and your peace of mind.

CMMC doesn’t have to be stressful. Let’s figure it out together.

Our team will help you navigate the complexities and build a resilient security posture.
