Close gaps and get compliant without the stress.
For defense contractors, CMMC compliance is no longer optional—it’s a contractual necessity. But achieving certification can feel overwhelming. While a CMMC gap analysis identifies your weaknesses, the real challenge is remediation—the process of fixing those issues to meet CMMC requirements.
The fear is real: How much will this cost? How long will it take? Will this disrupt our business? What if we fail the CMMC assessment and lose our DoD contracts?
At Alluvionic, we understand these concerns. As a Cyber-AB Registered Practitioner Organization (RPO), we specialize in guiding defense contractors through CMMC gap remediation—efficiently and cost-effectively. Our structured approach ensures you don’t waste time or money while securing the certification you need to stay competitive in the defense sector.
A CMMC gap analysis is like a cybersecurity health check—it identifies the vulnerabilities in your systems, policies, and processes. But just knowing the problems isn’t enough. Remediation is where the real work happens.
CMMC gap remediation is the process of:
For companies with limited internal cybersecurity resources, remediation can feel like an insurmountable challenge. You have contracts to fulfill, projects to complete, and employees to manage—you can’t afford a security project that drags on for months and drains your budget. That’s where we come in.
Many companies struggle with where to begin. Our structured approach breaks remediation into clear, manageable steps to ensure compliance without unnecessary delays.
We start by understanding your unique business operations, IT infrastructure, and compliance goals. We conduct a detailed project kickoff meeting, setting expectations and outlining deliverables.
Deliverable: Kickoff slide deck outlining project scope and timeline.
Not all security gaps are equally urgent. We identify high-risk vulnerabilities and prioritize remediation tasks accordingly.
Deliverable: Customized roadmap with prioritized remediation actions.
We help you implement the necessary security controls, policies, and documentation. This includes:
Deliverable: System Security Plan (SSP), Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M), CMMC domain policies.
Before you undergo a formal CMMC assessment, we conduct an internal validation to ensure all required security measures are in place.
Deliverable: Compliance dashboard tracking remediation progress.
We conduct a final review to verify compliance. If necessary, we assist during your official C3PAO assessment, providing reassurance and confidence throughout the process.
Deliverable: Executive out-brief report with findings and recommendations.
Balancing Compliance with Your Day-to-Day Operations
Time is one of the biggest concerns for contractors facing CMMC remediation. How long will this take? Will my team be tied up in cybersecurity projects instead of focusing on our core business?
The timeline for remediation varies based on the complexity of your environment, but a common guideline is to allocate 9 to 12 months to achieve CMMC level 2 compliance.
It depends on the level of certification required:
At Alluvionic, we ensure you meet all the necessary requirements before your C3PAO assessment, so there are no surprises.
CMMC remediation is not just an IT project—it involves multiple departments.
Key Stakeholders Include:
We work directly with your team to ensure smooth coordination, so no one is overwhelmed.

Not always. Some businesses already have security tools that can be configured to meet CMMC requirements.
During remediation, we:
You won’t be forced to buy expensive new tools—our goal is to make the most of what you have.
Your SPRS score is a requirement for CMMC Level 2 and DFARS compliance. It measures how well your security practices align with NIST SP 800-171.
As part of remediation, we help you improve your SPRS score by implementing missing security controls and submitting an updated score to the DoD.
CMMC is not a one-and-done process—compliance must be maintained over time.
