110 controls, 320 objectives
Every security requirement and assessment objective is addressed — either fully met or explicitly POA&M'd with a remediation plan and target date.
The most rigorous CMMC Level 2 readiness package a defense contractor can get.
The CMMC Level 2 Readiness Engine delivers a done-for-you assessment-ready package — complete System Security Plan, closed Plan of Action & Milestones, evidence library mapped to all 110 NIST SP 800-171 requirements and 320 assessment objectives, verified SPRS score, and passed mock C3PAO assessment — checked against the letter of DFARS 252.204-7021 and NIST SP 800-171 before a specialist releases it.

Why readiness efforts fail
A single missing control can block your contract award.
A defense contractor's CMMC Level 2 certification is only as strong as the readiness package behind it. Miss one of the 110 controls, skip a required evidence artifact, mis-score your SPRS, or fail a mock assessment — and the C3PAO assessment can fail, delaying contract awards and exposing the company to liability.
Most contractors prepare by hand, from memory, once every few years. The regulatory framework has not been read end-to-end since the last time it mattered. That is exactly where readiness gaps hide.
The CMMC Level 2 Readiness Engine exists to close that gap with a single, exhaustive standard applied identically to every engagement.

missing controls is enough to jeopardize certification
The benchmark
Measured against the letter of the regulation — control by control.
We do not summarize the requirements and hope. Every package is scored against a versioned rule pack tied to the exact text of NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 2 and DFARS 252.204-7021. These are the provisions each package is held to.
CMMC Level 2 certification
The package ensures the contractor meets the CMMC Level 2 maturity level, including all practices and processes required for third-party assessment.
SPRS score verification
The Supplier Performance Risk System score is calculated and verified to meet the minimum of 88 for conditional certification, with a path to 110.
Evidence library
Each assessment objective is supported by a defensible evidence artifact, classified and mapped to the control, with a chain of custody.
Mock assessment
A full mock C3PAO assessment is conducted using the official assessment guide, with findings documented and remediated before the real assessment.
System security plan & POA&M
A complete SSP and closed POA&M are delivered, including system boundaries, asset inventory, and a plan for all open items.
How a package is built
Intake to specialist release, with deterministic gates the AI cannot overrule.
AI extracts and drafts. Deterministic rules — running as code, outside the model — decide what is complete. A CMMC-certified professional signs every release. That order is never reversed.
01
Gap Scan
Upload your environment details and contracts. We return a free readiness read: which controls and objectives you already meet, and which are missing.
02
Scoping & evidence collection
As your authorized readiness agent, we define the assessment scope, identify all CUI assets, and collect existing policies, configurations, and artifacts.
03
Grounded drafting
The SSP, policies, and POA&M are drafted from your validated data and the NIST rule pack into field-locked templates — no legal opinions, no invented facts.
04
Deterministic completeness gates
All 110 controls are checked against the 320 objectives; SPRS score is calculated; evidence sufficiency is verified; any failure blocks release.
05
Specialist release
A CMMC-certified professional (CCP/CCA) reviews the exception queue and signs the release. High-value or complex engagements route to attorney review first.
06
Delivery
You receive the package: SSP, POA&M, evidence library, SPRS score report, mock assessment results, and a readiness checklist — ready for the contractor to submit to a C3PAO.

Why the CMMC Level 2 Readiness Engine
Built to be the most thorough option a defense contractor has.
Assessment-ready, by design
The deliverable is readiness itself — every control and objective accounted for or explicitly POA&M'd. Nothing is left implicit.
Deterministic, not vibes
The gates that decide completeness are code, not a model's opinion. A drafting error cannot slip past a regulatory requirement.
In its lane, on purpose
We prepare documentation and run readiness as your clerical agent. We never act as the assessor, give legal advice, or make certification decisions.
Engagement
Flat fee, per released package. No contingency, ever.
Simple, predictable, and aligned with a readiness standard — not a cut of any contract award.
- A free Gap Scan before you commit — see exactly what is missing.
- One flat fee per released Readiness Package; disclosed pass-through costs for any third-party tools.
- Optional fixed-fee attorney review for complex or high-value engagements.
- Optional Continuous Compliance Retainer for ongoing monitoring and evidence updates.
FAQ
Questions, answered precisely.
Is the CMMC Level 2 Readiness Engine a law firm?
No. The CMMC Level 2 Readiness Engine, a service of Your Deputy, Obuke LLC, provides documentation-completeness and readiness services. It is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not represent you in any legal matter. Attorney review is available and recommended for complex engagements.
Do you act as the C3PAO or certify our compliance?
Never. We are not a C3PAO and cannot certify compliance. We prepare readiness packages so that you can pass a C3PAO assessment. Independence rules require that assessors not consult for the companies they certify.
What makes a package 'complete'?
Completeness is defined by the regulation: all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls addressed, 320 assessment objectives evidenced, SPRS score verified, and a mock assessment passed. Deterministic gates enforce each one before release.
How fast is it?
The standard SLA is five business days from complete intake to a specialist-released package. The free Gap Scan is returned much sooner and tells you exactly what is still needed.
How are you priced?
A flat fee per released package, plus disclosed pass-through costs. No contingency and no percentage of any contract award.
