Established. Built. Operated.
One program, three stages, each separately authorized and separately invoiced. Every stage is a point at which you can stop, and the first one produces something you own regardless of who you continue with.
Your CMMC Level 2 Program
Established, Built, Operated.
Compliance is not a product you install. It is a state that decays. Evidence has to be produced continuously, and someone has to be accountable for producing it. TRANUSA runs that program end to end for Defense Industrial Base contractors. Each phase is separately authorized, so you can stop between any of them.
Where the assessment boundary sits determines everything that follows: cost, timeline, and whether the position survives scrutiny. This phase produces a documented boundary and a score you own, whoever you continue with.
- CUI Scoping & Data Flow Mapping
- Asset & Device Inventory
- Enclave Boundary Definition & Architecture
- NIST SP 800-171 Self-Assessment
- SPRS Score Calculation & Submission
Closing the gap against all 110 NIST SP 800-171 practices, and, just as important, producing the documentation and evidence that proves each one. An implemented control with no evidence behind it does not score.
- GCC High Enclave Build & Identity
- Security Control Implementation
- System Security Plan: All 110 Practices
- Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M)
- Policies, Procedures & Evidence Framework
Compliance decays the day you stop maintaining it. Configurations drift, people join and leave, evidence goes stale. This is the part that keeps a position defensible between assessments, and the part most providers do not do.
- SSP Kept Current, POA&M Actively Managed
- Continuous Evidence Collection
- Monthly Change Advisory Board & Reporting
- Continuous Monitoring with 24/7 Escalation
- C3PAO Audit Support & Evidence Packages
Your Compliance Posture Is a
Valuation Input
Most owners think about CMMC as the cost of keeping a contract. It is also a line item on the day somebody looks hard at the company, and that is a different audience asking a different question.
Our founder has spent years performing technology due diligence on acquisitions, which means reading the documentation of companies that were about to be bought. Diligence is the one moment when somebody with money at stake stops taking your word for it. What turns up is consistent enough to list:
- No documented assessment boundary, so nobody can say what was ever in scope
- A System Security Plan describing a system that has since changed
- An evidence locker that is a folder of undated screenshots
- A submitted SPRS score nobody can reconstruct the arithmetic for
- An enclave that exactly one administrator understands
None of that usually kills a transaction. What it does instead is quieter. It becomes a price adjustment, or an amount held back in escrow, or a representation the seller is asked to stand behind personally, or a delay while the work gets done properly at the seller’s cost with a buyer watching. The same findings surface when a prime audits a supplier, when an insurer underwrites a cyber policy, and when a new customer asks for a score before releasing controlled material.
The diligence test and the assessment test are nearly the same test.
Both ask two questions. Can you show me, and can you show me that it has been true for a while. A program built to answer an assessor answers a buyer at the same time, because the evidence and the history are the answer in both cases.
That is the argument for operating a program rather than completing a project, and it holds whether or not you ever sell anything. A documented boundary, a current SSP, an evidence locker with dates and history behind it, and a transition path that works: all of it in your name, all of it yours to hand to whoever asks. It is worth something to your customer today and worth something to a buyer later, and it is the same work either way.
Phases, Not a Black Box
Why the work is phased
A compliance program quoted as a single number asks you to commit to an outcome before anyone has scoped the boundary. We do not work that way, and no honest provider should. Each stage is defined, priced and authorized on its own, and each one ends with a deliverable that has value even if you go no further.
The stages are commercial units, not a strict sequence. Documentation runs alongside the build rather than after it, because evidence collected at the time is evidence; evidence reconstructed afterward is a reconstruction, and assessors can tell the difference.
What you own at every point
Your System Security Plan, your POA&M, your policies and procedures, your evidence repository, your assessment result and your posted SPRS score. All of it is yours outright, and none of it depends on the relationship continuing. A provider who has to hold your compliance documentation to keep you is telling you something about the work.
