CASE STUDIES

CMMC supplier readiness is becoming a defining factor for manufacturers entering or expanding within the defense ecosystem. Key insights from PNDC’s SCOC event highlight how primes are increasing expectations around data protection, NIST 800 171 implementation, and cyber maturity across the supply chain. Companies that prepare early will be better positioned for upcoming DoD opportunities.

CMMC is now active in DoD contracts, and Level 2 compliance is the new requirement for any organization handling CUI. With phased rollout starting November 10, 2025, contractors must complete NIST 800-171 aligned self-assessments, update SPRS scores, and prepare for C3PAO certification. Early action reduces risk, protects revenue, and keeps you eligible for new DoD opportunities.
