Veteran-owned CMMC and defense cybersecurity advisory
CMMC Readiness
Simplified.
NEXAVEC helps defense contractors and subcontractors clarify CMMC requirements, define scope, organize documentation, prioritize gaps, and prepare for the next step with confidence.
Who NEXAVEC helps
Focused advisory for defense contractors that need clear CMMC direction.
NEXAVEC works with small and mid-sized defense contractors, subcontractors, MSP-supported organizations, and teams that handle FCI or CUI and need to understand what CMMC and NIST SP 800-171 require.
NEXAVEC provides readiness and advisory support. Official CMMC certification assessments must be performed by authorized assessment organizations.
Core advisory focus
CMMC readiness consulting, NIST SP 800-171 gap assessment, CUI scoping, FCI scoping, SSP support, POA&M support, remediation advisory, and CMMC assessment preparation.
Why now
CMMC pressure is rising. Many contractors still do not know where they stand.
Defense contractors and subcontractors are being pushed to understand their CMMC obligations, protect CUI, organize evidence, and close gaps against NIST 800-171. The challenge is not just buying tools. It is knowing what applies, what is in scope, what is missing, and what to do next.
Book a Readiness CallCMMC Requirements Are Getting Real
- Contract requirements are becoming harder to ignore
- Prime contractors are asking better supplier questions
- Self-assessments and affirmations need defensible support
- Organizations need clearer evidence and documentation
Most Teams Are Underprepared
- CUI scope is often unclear
- SSPs are missing, outdated, or too generic
- POA&Ms are not tied to a practical remediation plan
- Policies do not always match actual operations

FAQ
Common questions before the first call.
What is CMMC readiness?
CMMC readiness is the work required to understand your current security posture, clarify scope, identify gaps, organize documentation, and prepare for future assessment activity.
Do you perform official CMMC certification assessments?
No. NEXAVEC provides readiness and advisory services. Official CMMC certification assessments must be performed by authorized assessment organizations. NEXAVEC helps organizations prepare.
What is NIST 800-171?
NIST 800-171 defines security requirements for protecting controlled unclassified information in non-federal systems and organizations. CMMC Level 2 is closely tied to these requirements.
What are SSP and POA&M documents?
An SSP, or System Security Plan, describes your environment and how security requirements are implemented. A POA&M, or Plan of Action and Milestones, tracks gaps, owners, timelines, and remediation activity.
Can you help if we are not sure whether CMMC applies?
Yes. The first step is often an applicability and scoping conversation to understand your contracts, customer requirements, data types, and environment.
Can you work with our MSP or internal IT team?
Yes. NEXAVEC can help clarify requirements, organize priorities, and coordinate remediation planning with your internal team or external technology providers.
