Be Prepared to Secure Federal Contracts

Proud to be an Authorized C3PAO

Auditwerx is a fully Authorized C3PAO (Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization).

This designation signifies that we have met the rigorous requirements set by the Cyber AB and the DoD to conduct official CMMC assessments.

As an authorized assessor, we provide the formal certification required for Level 2 contractors, ensuring your organization meets the technical standards necessary to protect national security and maintain contract eligibility.

The True Value of a Specialized Partner

At first glance, a self-assessment may seem like a “do-it-yourself” task. However, the complexity of the NIST SP 800-171 requirements and the implications of the False Claims Act make a specialized partner invaluable.

Technical Review

Internal teams often overlook subtle technical gaps due to familiarity with the system. We provide an unbiased lens, identifying vulnerabilities that might be missed during an internal review.

Defensible Evidence

A self-assessment is only as strong as the artifacts supporting it. We help you identify and organize the logs, screenshots, and configurations required to prove each control is effectively implemented, providing a robust trail for future inquiries.

Mitigating Executive Risk

Senior officials must sign a formal affirmation of compliance. By partnering with us, those leaders gain professional assurance that the technical claims they are signing are accurate and verified.

Interpreting Ambiguity

CMMC requirements can be open to interpretation. Our specialists provide clarity on how these standards apply to modern cloud and hybrid environments, ensuring your implementation meets the DoD’s specific expectations.

The Auditwerx Advantage

Test Once, Report Many

The technical data gathered during a CMMC Self-Assessment—such as your access control policies and system configurations—is highly valuable for other reporting needs like SOC 2® or HIPAA.

Through our “Test Once, Report Many” methodology, we verify these shared technical controls one time. This ensures that your CMMC efforts are not a siloed exercise but a contributing factor to your organization’s broader security maturity and marketability. By integrating your self-assessment with your other compliance goals, we help you reduce redundant work and streamline your overall security operations.

Our Self-Assessment Support Services

We provide the technical depth and professional guidance necessary to turn a checklist into a defensible security program.

1. Framework Alignment & Scoring

We guide your team through the 17 Level 1 requirements or the 110 Level 2 requirements. We ensure that every "Yes" answer is backed by technical reality and help you calculate your accurate score for the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS).

2. Evidence Gap Identification

During the self-assessment process, we often find that while a control exists, the evidence to prove it is lacking. We help you establish the recurring technical artifacts needed to satisfy an external review or a government inquiry.

3. Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M)

If the self-assessment reveals deficiencies, we help you draft a professional POA&M. This document outlines exactly how and when you will remediate gaps, which is a mandatory requirement for maintaining eligibility for certain DoD contracts.

CMMC Mock Assesment FAQ

Can we truly perform a self-assessment for Level 2?

The DoD allows self-assessments for a limited subset of Level 2 contracts involving non-prioritized Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). However, most Level 2 contractors will eventually require a third-party review. We help you determine which path is required for your specific contract mix.

Inaccurate attestations can lead to breach of contract, removal from the DoD supply chain, and significant legal exposure under the False Claims Act. Utilizing a professional partner to verify your results is a critical risk-mitigation strategy.

CMMC requires an annual self-assessment and a corresponding affirmation by a senior company official. We provide the recurring professional oversight needed to ensure each annual update is as rigorous as the first.

Yes. Regardless of whether you perform the assessment internally or with a partner, your resulting score must be uploaded to the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) to remain eligible for DoD contract awards.
