Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers producing components, assemblies, and subsystems for DoD primes are now required to prove CMMC compliance or risk losing the contract. The certification timeline is active, and the pipeline is not forgiving.
Technical drawings, CNC programs, inspection records, and ERP data that touches defense contracts is Controlled Unclassified Information. The systems where that data lives, and the networks connecting them, are subject to all 110 CMMC requirements. This is not an IT project you can delegate. The production floor, quality systems, DNC servers, and machine tool controllers that move and store CUI are all in your assessment boundary, and assessors will walk your facility and interview your operators, not just your IT team.
CATIA, STEP, DXF and 2D drawings received under DoD contracts are CUI. The PDM system storing them and every workstation with access is in scope.
G-code that encodes controlled geometry is CUI. DNC servers, USB drives used for program transfer, and machine controllers that store programs are all in scope.
First article reports, in-process records, and non-conformance records referencing defense program dimensions are CUI. Cloud-hosted QMS platforms require separate analysis.
Bills of material, procurement data, and scheduling data for defense programs bring ERP modules and their databases into scope.
Primes are already including CMMC compliance requirements in subcontract renewals. Suppliers who are not in the certification pipeline lose competitive position. Talk to us about where you stand and what it takes to get ready.
Most CMMC platforms are cloud-hosted SaaS tools designed for large enterprise IT teams. They require your CUI to leave your facility to reach the compliance platform, which is precisely the problem CMMC was designed to prevent. 1TEN is an on-premises appliance that deploys inside your network. No internet connectivity required. No CUI transmitted to an external platform. The compliance program lives where the CUI lives.
Installed on-premises as a dedicated appliance. No cloud dependencies. No external APIs. CUI never leaves your network to reach the compliance platform.
Every NIST SP 800-171 requirement with guided implementation interviews, evidence collection, and the specific questions C3PAO assessors ask.
Generates your System Security Plan and SPRS score documentation from your actual implementation, ready for assessor review and regulatory submission.
No multi-month implementation project. 1TEN is operational the same day it is installed, giving you time to work on compliance, not on deploying a compliance tool.
1TEN tracks your control posture across all 110 NIST SP 800-171 requirements and generates C3PAO-ready documentation automatically.
