CMMC 2.0 Level 1 & Level 2 Readiness for Florida Defense Contractors
If you’re in the Department of Defense supply chain (prime or subcontractor), CMMC and NIST 800-171 can directly impact contract eligibility and risk. We help organizations move from uncertainty → documented readiness with clear milestones, strong documentation, and real implementation support.
What we help you do (fast)
- Confirm whether you’re targeting Level 1 or Level 2 (or both)
Identify gaps against Level 1 (FAR 52.204-21) and/or Level 2 (NIST 800-171)
Build audit-ready documentation (SSP/POA&M support, evidence organization)
Implement security controls—not just “advice and checklists”
Support GCC / GCC High planning as a supporting readiness track

Not Sure If This Applies to You?
If any of these are true, you should book a call:
You support a prime contractor or receive defense-related flow-down requirements
You store/process/share Federal Contract Information (FCI)
You may handle Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
Your customer mentions CMMC, NIST 800-171, DFARS, SPRS, or “cyber requirements” in contracts
You’re worried a future solicitation will require a CMMC status
Level 1 vs Level 2 — What’s the Difference?
Level 1 (Foundational)
Focus: protecting FCI
Based on FAR 52.204-21 “basic safeguarding requirements” (15 safeguards)
Requires an annual self-assessment and affirmation in SPRS
Level 2 (Advanced)
Focus: protecting CUI
Aligned to NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 2 (110 requirements)
Can involve self-assessment or third-party assessment depending on the contract and scope (we help you determine the likely path).
This isn’t a generic sales call. In 15–30 minutes we’ll help you:
-
Confirm whether you’re aiming at Level 1, Level 2, or both
-
Identify your highest-risk gaps (documentation + technical)
-
Clarify what scope you likely need (systems, users, locations, vendors)
-
Recommend a practical next step: gap assessment, roadmap, or implementation sprint

Clear roadmap with milestones and ownership
Documentation & Evidence Support
SSP guidance and structure
POA&M planning support (where applicable)
Policy and procedure framework (tailored, not generic templates)
Evidence organization (so you can prove implementation when asked)
Implementation Support
Identity and access improvements (least privilege, MFA alignment)
Device and endpoint hardening guidance
Logging/monitoring readiness planning
Secure configuration baselines and operational routines
*Note: We don’t promise “instant compliance” or guaranteed certification. We build real readiness with defensible documentation and practical implementation.
GCC & GCC High Support (Azure / Microsoft 365 on an Azure Network)
Many defense contractors ask: “Do we need GCC High?” The answer depends on what you handle, where CUI lives, and your contract requirements.
We provide supporting guidance for:
Determining whether GCC vs GCC High is appropriate for your environment and CUI workflows
Planning a secure cloud boundary and operational controls
Identity, access, device, and logging considerations for readiness
Microsoft publishes compliance guidance related to government cloud offerings and DFARS/NIST alignment—cloud is a foundation, but configuration + controls + evidence still matter.
Our “Fast + Defensible” Approach
Step 1 — Clarify the target
Level 1 or Level 2? FCI vs CUI? What’s in scope?
Step 3 — Build documentation that stands up
We help you get your SSP/policies/evidence aligned to what assessors and customers expect.
Step 2 — Find the gaps that actually matter
We prioritize what impacts contract eligibility and audit defensibility first.
Step 4 — Implement and operationalize
Controls must be implemented and maintained—not just written down.

- Clear milestones, focused scope, and forward progress—without chaos.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. We support organizations targeting Level 1, Level 2, or a phased plan across both.
Often, yes. Requirements can flow down through the supply chain, and many primes require readiness before awarding work.
On the call, we’ll walk through common CUI indicators (contract language, data types, systems used, customer expectations) and help you clarify likely scope.
Companies like Centuric, can provide Readiness or Audit. We are not permitted to do both. At Centuric, we provide readiness so that you can get an auditors certification, if required. After our services are completed, most often you are able to self-certify, thus there is no need for an audit.
Usually one of these:
Unclear scope
Missing/weak documentation (SSP/evidence)
Controls not consistently implemented/maintained
Not always. It depends on your CUI workflows and contract needs. We include GCC/GCC High as a supporting track to help you make the right call.
Timelines vary based on size, complexity, and current posture. After the call, we can recommend a realistic plan with milestones.
We contact you to schedule the call, confirm basic scope, and outline next-step options (assessment, roadmap, implementation).
