Build readiness that holds up under assessment.
C1Risk helps defense contractors organize CMMC readiness as a governed program. Connect the assessment scope, applicable requirements, controls, objective evidence, remediation, and assessment preparation in one GRC environment.
Know which CMMC path may apply.
CMMC defines three program levels, but implementation timing and contractual application can change. Confirm current DoD guidance and the specific solicitation or contract, then use C1Risk to organize the applicable scope, requirements, evidence, assessment records, and ongoing obligations.
Foundational
For environments handling Federal Contract Information, with a self-assessment and annual affirmation.
Advanced
For environments handling Controlled Unclassified Information, with either self-assessment or C3PAO certification as specified.
Expert
For designated programs requiring enhanced protection against advanced persistent threats.
Define the boundary before you measure readiness.
CMMC readiness begins with the systems, people, facilities, cloud services, supporting technologies, and external service providers associated with FCI and CUI. C1Risk connects those governed records, their owners, and the documented assessment scope so teams can organize readiness around the environment identified for review.
Turn the standard into work your teams can own.
Map CMMC requirements to policies, controls, assets, owners, procedures, tests, and objective evidence. Reuse mapped control work across NIST SP 800-171, NIST SP 800-53, and other applicable frameworks without losing the CMMC assessment record.
Move from contract requirement to assessment preparation.
Readiness is not a checklist completed at the end. C1Risk gives each stage a record, an owner, supporting evidence, and a clear review point so teams can see what is prepared and what still needs work.
Confirm the required level
Review current program guidance, the solicitation or contract, data type, and applicable environment.
Define the assessment scope
Connect FCI and CUI records, assets, users, facilities, and external providers.
Establish the baseline
Document current implementation, the SSP, and relevant scoring records.
Manage readiness gaps
Assign remediation, manage eligible POA&Ms, and record review activity.
Prepare assessment materials
Organize evidence, response history, owners, and supporting records for review.
Maintain ongoing readiness
Track relevant changes, review cycles, affirmation dates, and open work.
Close gaps before they become assessment findings.
Manage eligible POA&M items with accountable owners, milestones, due dates, evidence, validation, and closeout history. C1Risk keeps the remediation decision connected to the affected requirement and assessment scope.
Give assessment teams a clear path to the evidence.
Organize the SSP, policies, procedures, asset records, accountable owners, tests, and objective evidence in a structured readiness workspace. C1Risk supports preparation and governed collaboration, while assessment and certification decisions remain with authorized independent parties.
Keep the program current as the environment changes.
Bring authorized signals and workflow updates into the records connected to your defined scope. Keep evidence reviews, open issues, assessment timing, affirmation dates, and flow-down obligations visible without implying that software replaces required professional or government review.
Give every requirement accountable follow-through.
Use connected records and governed workflows to organize evidence, identify missing documentation, coordinate review, track remediation, and prepare focused follow-up. Your professionals remain responsible for scope, interpretation, approval, affirmation, and every representation made to an assessor or the government.
Organize objective evidence
Connect incoming records to the requirements and controls they support.
Track coverage gaps
Keep missing evidence, ownership, testing, or documentation visible.
Connect change context
Relate system, vendor, asset, and control updates to the affected scope.
Coordinate follow-up
Assign open questions and readiness items for professional review.
Manage remediation
Keep milestones, evidence, review, and closeout activity connected.
Preserve accountability
Maintain ownership, approval, rationale, affirmation, and assessment history.
Build a CMMC program that is ready before the assessment begins.
Connect scope, requirements, controls, evidence, remediation, assessment preparation, and ongoing readiness in one governed environment.
