Beginning November 10, 2026, many DoD subcontractors pursuing CMMC Level 2 will need to pass a third-party C3PAO assessment. For applicable contracts, self-assessments will no longer be enough.

That means the challenge is no longer just understanding the requirements. It is getting your organization truly audit-ready and doing it in time.

For many subcontractors, the biggest risk is not failing the audit. It is:

  • underestimating how long readiness takes
  • misunderstanding what “audit-ready” actually means
  • waiting too long to engage around assessment timing
  • discovering too late that evidence, scope, or documentation will not hold up under review

This webinar is designed to help you avoid those mistakes.

You’ll walk away with practical insights into:

  • What “audit-ready” really means for a Level 2 subcontractor
  • What assessors look for when reviewing scope, evidence, and documentation
  • Common reasons organizations get delayed before the audit even begins
    How to think about C3PAO timing and scheduling before the deadline pressure builds
  • What subcontractors should be doing now to improve their chances of meeting the November 2026 requirement

This session is for:

  • DoD subcontractors that handle CUI
  • organizations expecting CMMC Level 2 requirements in upcoming contracts
  • leaders responsible for compliance, IT, security, or contract readiness
  • teams that have relied on self-assessments and now need to prepare for third-party certification
  • subcontractors unsure whether their current readiness efforts are enough
