  • EVERY KIERI CONSULTANT IS A CERTIFIED CMMC ASSESSOR

Compliance Advice Gets Expensive When It Misses

  • Three consultants, three answers. Conflicting guidance with no way to tell which version an assessor will actually accept.
  • Documentation that reads well and fails anyway. Policies describing intent instead of what your people do on a Tuesday.
  • Controls built for a company you are not. Tooling and process bought for an enterprise, paid for by a sixty person shop.

Guidance From Assessors Who Run Real Assessments

  • We sit on the other side of the table. Our consultants perform CMMC assessments, so the advice you get is the standard you will be measured against.
  • We passed our own Level 2 assessment. DCMA DIBCAC assessed Kieri using the same architecture and documentation we hand you.
  • We tell you when you are finished. Over-preparing costs as much as under-preparing, and we will say so before you spend the money.

Why Kieri for Your CMMC Level 2 Consulting

80+ assessments completed and 400+ organizations supported

Assessors, Not Generalists.

Twenty plus Certified CMMC Assessors and Professionals on staff. The person advising you has read evidence packages for a living.

Several Points of Entry.

A single SSP review, a 25-hour customization block, a gap analysis, or a full preparation project. Start where you actually are.

No Required Monthly Program.

We are not a managed service. You buy hours, you keep the program, and you come back when you need us.

Where CMMC Stands Right Now

What the Phase 2 suspension changed, and what it did not

  • In July 2026 the Department of War suspended the Phase 2 milestone that would have made third-party certification a condition of award, and opened a review of the program.
  • Your Level 2 self-assessment did not go away. Your SPRS score did not go away. DFARS 252.204-7012 is still binding, including the 72-hour reporting requirement. If you were working toward Level 2, the work in front of you is the same work. What changed is the deadline, not the standard.

Consulting Services for Every Stage

Documentation Review and Customization

  • We review your policies, procedures, and System Security Plan line by line against NIST SP 800-171 requirements.
  • The 25 hour customization block is the entry point, and it produces a Plan of Action alongside finished documentation. Larger environments take more hours, and we scope that with you before the work starts.

Official CMMC Level 2 certification and Letter of Attestation upon successful completion. Documentation you can share with customers and prime contractors.

Kieri Compliance Advisor

  • A senior CMMC consultant on retainer for organizations that want an expert available as questions come up.
  • We can act as your compliance officer so your IT department can focus on IT.

Full CMMC Preparation Project

An end-to-end engagement for organizations that want a plan, a schedule, and an expert alongside them until they are ready for assessment.

Scoping and CUI

We review your CUI, map how it moves, and set a scope your organization can actually defend. Scoping decisions made early save months later.

Documentation and Evidence

Policies, procedures, System Security Plan, and the record-keeping that generates evidence as your team works.

Technical Implementation Guidance

Practical direction on cloud evaluation, boundary architecture, external service providers, and the technical controls behind each requirement.

Executive Support

We calculate the resources compliance will take and help you present that case to leadership. We can often recommend cheaper and simpler solutions than the ones on the table.

Handoff to Your Team

Kieri is not a managed services provider. We explain the reasoning behind every document and control as we go, so your team can keep running the program without us.

What Sets Our Consulting Apart

Request a Quote

Practical
Scoping

We have been advocating for common sense assessments and practical scoping since the early days of CMMC. Security requirements have to work alongside the business.

Plain
Answers

We explain how we interpret gray areas and what we have seen pass in real assessments, rather than repeating the language of the requirement back to you.

 

Assessment
Experience

The consultants who prepare you have worked inside real CMMC assessments, so the guidance you get reflects what holds up under review. Kieri has supported 400+ organizations through NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC work.

“In our own compliance journey of trying to figure out what we are required to do, even with consultants that helped us along the way, the MOST useful resource that we have found to date has been the KCD.”

Melissa Kimball

University of Maine

“My team and I have been using the KCD for about a week now, and I have to say, it’s been a breath of fresh air compared to our previous approach. It has made several processes much easier for us, and for that, we’re truly grateful. You have a fantastic product that far exceeds our expectations.”

FAQ

Yes. Every Kieri consultant is a Certified CMMC Assessor. The guidance you get comes from people who sit on the other side of real assessments and know what evidence holds up.

No. We do not provide both consulting and formal CMMC assessment to the same client, and we consider the sale of compliance documentation templates to be consulting. We can provide a list of assessment organizations with good track records on request.

No. You buy the hours you need for the work in front of you. A retainer is available if you want ongoing access to an advisor, but it is an option rather than a condition.

Most start with a scoping conversation and a review of your existing documentation. From there we work through requirements with your team, record what is missing on a Plan of Action, and keep going until you are ready.

The underlying NIST SP 800-171 requirements and the DFARS 252.204-7012 clause have not changed, and contractors are still expected to maintain and post a self-assessment score. Preparation work you do now carries forward.

Yes. At our core we are a NIST SP 800-171 readiness and assessment company. CMMC is the Department of War program built on top of that standard, and we work with organizations on both.
