CMMC Compliance Services

Stay in the defense supply chain without becoming a compliance shop.

CMMC 2.0 is becoming a condition of doing business with the Department of Defense, and the NIST 800-171 controls underneath it are technical, specific, and unforgiving. Topping helps Texas defense suppliers get audit-ready and stay there. We run the gap assessment, build the documentation, remediate the controls, and prepare you for assessment, so a contract requirement stays a manageable project instead of a full-time job.

What CMMC readiness involves

CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) 2.0 is the Defense Department's framework for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) across its supply chain. Most suppliers fall under Level 2, which maps to the 110 security controls of NIST 800-171. If you handle CUI and want to keep winning DoD work, demonstrating these controls is moving from optional to mandatory.

Getting there is a project, not a product you buy. It starts with an honest gap assessment against the 110 controls, an accurate SPRS score, and a System Security Plan (SSP) that documents how each control is met. Then comes remediation, the work of closing the technical and policy gaps, plus the Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) that tracks whatever remains. We do this with you, so the evidence is real and holds up in front of a third-party assessor.

What's included

Inside the engagement

NIST 800-171 gap assessment

A control-by-control review against all 110 requirements, mapping exactly where you stand and what is missing.

SPRS scoring

An accurate, defensible Supplier Performance Risk System score, calculated to reflect reality.

System Security Plan (SSP)

The core document an assessor reads first: a clear, accurate account of how each control is implemented in your environment.

Remediation & control implementation

Hands-on closure of the technical and policy gaps: access control, encryption, logging, MFA, configuration management, and more.

POA&M development

A realistic Plan of Action and Milestones for controls not yet fully met, with owners and timelines an assessor can trust.

Assessment preparation

Mock review and evidence organization so you walk into a C3PAO assessment prepared, not hoping.

What you get

The outcomes you can hold us to

Eligible to keep winning DoD work

A defensible posture and the documentation behind it keep you in the running for contracts that now carry CMMC requirements.

An honest score you can stand behind

An accurate SPRS score and SSP mean no nasty surprises when an assessor or prime contractor checks your work.

Compliance that stays current

CMMC is an ongoing commitment. Our managed services keep the controls in place and the evidence current between assessments, so you are ready whenever one comes.

A genuinely stronger environment

The 800-171 controls do real work to harden your environment. You come out of the project more secure, and the documentation is a byproduct of getting there.

Who it's for

This is for Texas manufacturers, engineering firms, and service providers in the defense industrial base: primes, and especially the subcontractors who handle CUI and are now being pushed on compliance by the contractors above them. It fits organizations that have watched CMMC language show up in their contracts and realized they have neither the in-house expertise nor the spare time to work through 110 controls alone.

Frequently asked questions

Does Topping Technologies certify or assess us for CMMC?
No. Formal CMMC assessments are performed by accredited third-party assessors (C3PAOs), and the certification is yours to earn and hold. Our role is to get you genuinely ready: gap assessment, remediation, documentation, and assessment prep, so you pass on the merits.
What CMMC level do most suppliers need?
Most defense suppliers that handle Controlled Unclassified Information fall under Level 2, which is built on the 110 controls of NIST 800-171. We confirm your actual requirement based on the data you handle and your contract language during the gap assessment.
How long does CMMC readiness take?
It depends on your starting point and how many of the 110 controls are already in place. After the gap assessment we give you a realistic timeline and a prioritized remediation plan. We scope specifics in a free 30-minute review rather than quote a generic number.
Will the compliance work disrupt our operations?
We plan remediation to keep disruption low, sequencing changes and explaining them as we go. Many 800-171 controls, MFA, logging, access control among them, are simply good security, so the work strengthens your day-to-day operations while it satisfies the auditor.
