CMMC Compliance as a Service for Defense Contractors

KTL Solutions manages your CMMC compliance program from start to finish, so your team stays productive while your environment stays audit-ready. From POA&M tracking to SSP maintenance, we handle the compliance workload for you.

Get and Stay CMMC Compliant Without Distracting Your Team

CMMC Compliance Is Mandatory and Ongoing

Defense contractors and government suppliers face a clear mandate. CMMC compliance is required to win and hold DoD contracts. For organizations pursuing CMMC Level 2 or Level 3 certification, compliance is not a one-time checklist.

It requires continuous monitoring, documented evidence, updated security plans, and ongoing gap remediation. Falling behind puts your contracts and your business at risk.

Purpose-Built for the Defense Industrial Base

KTL Solutions’ CMMC Compliance as a Service program is designed specifically for the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). We manage your compliance program so your internal team stays focused on delivering on your contracts.

Our certified compliance experts align your environment with NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC 2.0 requirements across all 110 practices.

Built for DFARS-Regulated Organizations

Our CMMC Compliance as a Service offering is purpose-built for organizations subject to federal acquisition regulations, including:

  • DFARS 252.204-7012: Safeguarding Covered Defense Information
  • DFARS 252.204-7019: NIST SP 800-171 Assessment Requirements
  • DFARS 252.204-7021: CMMC Requirements

Whether you are preparing for your first C3PAO assessment or maintaining an existing certification, KTL 360 CaaS keeps you ready.

A Structured Program, Not a One-Time Fix

The KTL 360 CMMC Compliance as a Service (CaaS) offering gives your organization the structure, documentation, and expert oversight needed to achieve and maintain CMMC certification.

What Our Program Includes

Our CaaS program delivers ongoing compliance management across your full environment:

  • Continuous automated compliance monitoring across your Microsoft environment

  • Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) management
  • Change control, policy development, and incident response guidance

Whether your next assessment is scheduled or a surprise, you will always be ready.

More Than Passing an Assessment

CMMC compliance is about protecting your organization’s ability to win and retain DoD contracts. Under DFARS 252.204-7012, defense contractors must protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

Failure to comply puts you at risk of contract loss, financial penalties, and potential False Claims Act liability.

The Real Cost of Non-Compliance

Outdated or non-compliant systems expose your organization to serious consequences:

  • Audit failure and contract suspension
  • Reputational damage with prime contractors and the DoD
  • Delayed contract awards after a failed C3PAO assessment
  • SPRS investigations triggered by self-attestation errors

You will maintain a strong SPRS score and a well-documented compliance posture that instills confidence in your prime contractors and the DoD supply chain.

Frequently Asked Questions: CMMC Compliance as a Service

CMMC Compliance as a Service (CaaS) is a managed program where a specialized partner like KTL Solutions continuously manages your CMMC compliance requirements on your behalf. Instead of building an internal compliance team, you rely on certified experts to maintain your System Security Plan, manage your POA&M, collect evidence, and keep your environment audit-ready for CMMC Level 2 or Level 3 assessments.

Any defense contractor or subcontractor that handles Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) under a DoD contract needs to meet CMMC requirements. Organizations subject to DFARS 252.204-7012, DFARS 252.204-7019, or DFARS 252.204-7021 are the primary audience. CaaS is especially valuable for small and mid-sized defense contractors who lack dedicated compliance staff but must still meet CMMC Level 2 or Level 3 requirements.

KTL 360 CaaS includes continuous automated compliance monitoring, POA&M development and tracking, System Security Plan (SSP) maintenance, practice implementation guidance across all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls, change control support, policy and procedure customization, remote assessment preparation, and ongoing evidence collection. All services align with CMMC 2.0 and NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2.

A CMMC assessment is a point-in-time evaluation conducted by a Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO). CMMC Compliance as a Service is the ongoing management program that keeps your environment compliant between assessments. CaaS ensures you are always prepared for an assessment, your compliance evidence is continuously maintained, and new gaps are remediated before they become findings.

The timeline depends on your current compliance posture and the CMMC level you are pursuing. Organizations with an existing mature security program may be ready for a C3PAO assessment within three to six months. Organizations starting from scratch typically require six to twelve months. KTL 360 CaaS begins with a full gap assessment against NIST SP 800-171 to establish your baseline and timeline.

Yes. KTL Solutions specializes in Microsoft 365 GCC High and Azure Government environments, which are the required cloud platforms for most CMMC Level 2 and Level 3 organizations handling CUI. Our CaaS integrates directly with your Microsoft GCC High tenant, configuring Defender for Endpoint, Microsoft Purview, Entra ID Conditional Access, and other required security controls in alignment with CMMC practices.
