What is CMMC?
CMMC aligns with NIST SP 800-171 R2 requirements and introduces standardized cybersecurity practices and assessment requirements for organizations working with the DoW.
CMMC Level 1 is required when Federal Contract Information (FCI) is provided or generated as part of a product or service contract. Look for “FAR 52.204-21 Basic Safeguarding of Covered Contractor Information Systems” in your contracts to see if it applies. Examples include contracts, financial information, performance reports, and process documentation. At this level, the OSC is self-assessed.
CMMC Level 2 is required for Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), which could harm national security if leaked. Examples include technical drawings and inspection reports with military or space applications. This level requires assessment by a third party, also known as a C3PAO. Most DoW contractors will need to have a CMMC Level 2 Assessment performed by a third party.
CMMC Level 3 will be required for some prime contractors and will involve assessment by the DoW Industrial Base Cybersecurity Assessment Center (DIBCAC) after first passing a Level 2 Assessment from a C3PAO

ControlCase CMMC Assessment Process
ControlCase conducts a CMMC Mock Assessment, that identifies gaps in existing behavior, policy, and infrastructure that are required to be filled for compliance. This is not a CMMC Certifiable Assessment. Upon completion of the Mock Assessment, you will have the opportunity to remediate any open POA&M items prior to moving forward and conducting the certification assessment.
ControlCase adheres to the CMMC Assessment Process (CAP).
The CAP addresses pre-assessment “preliminary proceedings” that are then followed by the actual assessment process, which is organized across four (4) phases and describes the required activities, roles, and responsibilities of CMMC assessment participants in each.
The four phases are:
Phase 1: Conduct the Pre-Assessment
Phase 2: Assess Conformity to Security Requirements
Phase 3: Complete and Report Assessment Results
Phase 4: Issue Certificate and Closeout POA&M
