Phase 2 enforcement: November 10, 2026
CMMC & Defense Contractor IT

CMMC compliance is no longer optional.
We help you prove it.

DTC works with defense contractors across Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania to get CMMC Level 2 ready... and stay that way. We know the controls, the evidence requirements, and what a C3PAO assessor actually needs to see.

Why DTC

We're CMMC Level 2 compliant ourselves. We know what that actually takes.

Most IT companies will tell you they understand CMMC. DTC went through the process. We built our own SSP, defined our CUI boundary, implemented all 110 controls, and prepared our own evidence packages. That's not a selling point... it's just the truth about what this work requires.

We've seen the same gaps in Mid-Atlantic defense contractors over and over: SPRS scores that don't survive scrutiny, SSPs that describe a system that doesn't exist, and CUI boundaries that were drawn too wide or too narrow. We know where to look and how to fix it before a C3PAO finds it first.

Start your readiness assessment

CMMC Level 2 compliant

DTC maintains its own CMMC Level 2 compliance program, including all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls.

Mid-Atlantic defense contractor focus

Serving contractors across Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania since 1999.

MSP-aware compliance support

We understand how your MSP relationship affects your CMMC scope and document it correctly in your Customer Responsibility Matrix.

Evidence, not explanations

C3PAO assessors need screenshots, logs, and configuration exports... not promises. We build the evidence package with you.

What we do

Full-scope CMMC support.

From your first gap analysis to your C3PAO assessment, DTC covers the whole program.

Phase 1

Readiness assessment

Before you can fix gaps, you need to know where they are. We assess your environment against all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls, define your CUI boundary, and calculate an honest SPRS score.

  • CUI boundary definition
  • 110-control gap analysis
  • SPRS score calculation
  • Assessment scope documentation
Phase 2

Implementation & documentation

We implement the technical controls your environment is missing and build the documentation your assessor will require: SSP, POA&M, and the policies behind every control.

  • System Security Plan (SSP)
  • Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M)
  • Technical control implementation
  • Policy and procedure documentation
Phase 3

C3PAO prep & ongoing compliance

We prepare your evidence package, coordinate with your C3PAO, and keep your compliance program current after the assessment so you're not starting over next cycle.

  • Evidence package preparation
  • C3PAO coordination support
  • Continuous monitoring
  • Annual program maintenance
The clock is running

Phase 2 enforcement begins November 10, 2026.

That's when C3PAO certification becomes mandatory for CUI contracts. Organizations that can't prove CMMC Level 2 readiness face ineligible bids and exposure under the DoJ's Civil Cyber-Fraud Initiative. Industry estimates put fewer than 1% of affected contractors at full readiness. A C3PAO assessment takes months. The time to start is now.
