The moment CUI (marked drawings, specs, technical data covered by DFARS 252.204-7012) is stored, processed, or transmitted on your systems, you are in Level 2 territory, and your contract language determines whether that's a self-assessment or a C3PAO certified assessment. The Gap Audit is where we read your actual flow-downs and tell you which one you're looking at."

A C3PAO is an accredited third party that performs the certified assessment and issues the decision — it is a paid, formal, multi-day engagement, and we are not a C3PAO. The Gap Audit is a free 45-minute readiness conversation with a senior engineer that tells you where you stand before you spend money on remediation or book an assessor. Think of it as the map, not the exam."

It helps if you can pull up one DoD purchase order or prime agreement so we can read the flow-down clauses, and know roughly how your network is laid out — how many buildings, whether the plant floor is separated, and whether you're on Microsoft 365. If you already have an SSP, SPRS score, or a prime's questionnaire, bring them. If you have none of that, that's a normal starting point for an Ohio shop."

Level 2 with a C3PAO assessment commonly runs $75,000–$300,000+ across readiness, remediation, tooling, and the assessment fee. Those are planning bands, not quotes — your CUI boundary drives the number. Our Columbus manufacturers cost guide breaks the drivers down in detail."

Ohio manufacturers & defense suppliers · CMMC / NIST 800-171

# CMMC readiness for Ohio manufacturers — know your gaps in 45 minutes 

A senior TRNSFRM engineer — not an SDR — spends 45 minutes scoring your environment live against the controls behind CMMC and NIST SP 800-171 (and the frameworks that overlap them, like DFARS 7012 reporting and CIS hardening). You leave with a written one-page snapshot: your biggest gaps, ranked, and whether your contracts point toward Level 1 or Level 2. No slide deck, no discovery-call theater.

Security & compliance gaps — plus the IT issues that create them

Free 45-Minute Gap Audit[(877) 777-6855](tel:+18777776855)

You keep the written snapshot either way 

## What the Gap Audit is — at a glance

### Who this is for

-   Central Ohio and Northeast Ohio manufacturers with DoD work or prime flow-downs in their POs 
-   Shops that can't answer cleanly whether they touch CUI or only FCI 
-   Suppliers under SPRS pressure — an old score, a stale SSP, or a prime asking for evidence 
-   Plants where estimating, programming, and the shop floor all share one flat network 

### What you get in 45 minutes

-   Your top gaps identified and ranked by what an assessor looks at first 
-   A read on your likely path: Level 1 self-assessment vs Level 2 (self or C3PAO) 
-   Where your CUI boundary could be drawn to shrink scope before you spend money 
-   A written one-page snapshot you keep, plus clear next-step options 

### What it isn't

-   This is a planning conversation, not a certified C3PAO assessment. 
-   It is not a priced remediation proposal — scope drives that, and 45 minutes won't settle scope. 
-   If we don't find anything worth fixing, we'll tell you that in writing. 

## Why Ohio shops stall on CMMC

Four patterns account for most of the delay we see in Ohio plants. None of them are about buying more tools.

### OT and plant-floor scope

CNC controllers, HMIs, and legacy Windows boxes on the production VLAN get swept into the boundary because nobody separated them. Scope decisions move the budget more than tooling ever will.

### Multiple plants, one flat network

A second building in Marysville or Twinsburg joined by a site-to-site tunnel doubles the assessment surface unless the CUI work is fenced into an enclave.

### CUI sprawl in email and Teams

Marked drawings land in a shared inbox, get dropped into a Teams channel, and copy to a desktop. That's three systems in scope that didn't need to be.

### Waiting on “Phase 2”

Rollout dates have shifted, but DFARS 252.204-7012 and your SPRS score are contractual right now. Primes are asking for evidence regardless of the clock.
