Compliance for Government — CMMC · FedRAMP · StateRAMP · NIST · HIPAA
The umbrella programme for federal, state, and regulated organizations. One engagement maps your controls across every framework you're accountable for — no double-work, no parallel tracks, no surprise findings at audit time.

Compliance done right is one programme, not five.
Most firms run CMMC, FedRAMP, NIST 800-53, HIPAA, and SOC 2 as parallel tracks — each with its own assessor, its own evidence repo, its own remediation list. The result is duplicate work, conflicting controls, and an audit trail that breaks the moment one framework changes. We run a single control set mapped across every framework you’re accountable for, so the evidence you produce for one audit is the evidence you produce for all of them.

Outcomes.
- A single control set you can demonstrate against every framework in scope, with cross-mapping documentation your auditor will accept.
- Audit-ready evidence package — SSP, SAR, POA&M, and a control-evidence repository organized by framework.
- A continuous-monitoring posture so the audit isn’t a fire drill — it’s a status check.
Frequently asked questions.
Is this CMMC-only or broader?
Broader. CMMC is one of many frameworks under this umbrella. If you're a defense contractor, CMMC is likely your driver — but the same engagement covers your NIST and any state-level requirements at no extra scope.
Do you work with C3PAOs for CMMC L2 assessments?
Yes. We coordinate the assessor relationship and prepare your environment so the assessment is a confirmation, not a discovery.
Can you run all frameworks under one engagement?
Yes — and that's the recommendation. Running them in parallel doubles your cost and creates conflicting controls. One engagement, one control set, multi-framework mapping.
What's a realistic timeline for FedRAMP authorization?
From kickoff to a JAB-ready package: 9–18 months depending on environment complexity. Agency ATO typically faster.
Do you offer fixed-fee?
Yes. Assessment is fixed-fee. Build is fixed-fee per scoped milestone. Sustain is monthly retainer.
