Achieve CMMC Certification with CoreRecon — Your Trusted Texas CMMC Compliance Partner
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 is now a mandatory requirement for Department of Defense (DoD) contractors and subcontractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) or Federal Contract Information (FCI). If your organization holds or is pursuing DoD contracts, you must demonstrate compliance with CMMC standards to remain eligible for contract awards.
CoreRecon, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) headquartered in Corpus Christi, Texas, provides comprehensive CMMC compliance services to defense contractors across the state. Our veteran-led team understands the DoD contracting environment, the NIST 800-171 control requirements that underpin CMMC Level 2, and the urgency of achieving certification on tight timelines. From gap assessments and SPRS scoring to full remediation and ongoing managed compliance, CoreRecon is your single-source partner for CMMC readiness in Texas.
What Is CMMC 2.0?
CMMC 2.0 is the Department of Defense’s unified cybersecurity standard for the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). It streamlines the original five-level framework into three tiers. Level 1 (Foundational) requires self-assessment against 17 basic cybersecurity practices for organizations handling FCI. Level 2 (Advanced) requires third-party assessment by a certified C3PAO against all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls for organizations handling CUI. Level 3 (Expert) requires government-led assessment against NIST SP 800-172 enhanced controls for the highest-priority programs.
Most Texas defense contractors supporting JBSA, NAS Corpus Christi, NASA Johnson Space Center, and other DoD installations will need to achieve CMMC Level 2 certification to maintain their contracts. The DFARS clauses 7012 and 7021 establish the contractual requirements that flow down to subcontractors at every tier.
CoreRecon CMMC Compliance Services
CMMC Gap Assessment
Our CMMC gap assessment evaluates your current cybersecurity posture against the 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls required for CMMC Level 2. We identify every gap, document your current state, and deliver a detailed remediation roadmap with prioritized actions and realistic timelines. This assessment gives you a clear picture of where you stand and what it will take to achieve certification.
SPRS Score Assessment and Improvement
Your Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) score is a critical metric that DoD contracting officers review when evaluating your cybersecurity compliance. CoreRecon helps you calculate your current SPRS score, identify the controls that are pulling your score down, and implement remediation to improve your score toward the maximum of 110. We also help you properly submit your score to the SPRS portal.
System Security Plan (SSP) Development
A comprehensive System Security Plan is foundational to CMMC compliance. CoreRecon develops your SSP to document how your organization implements each of the 110 NIST 800-171 controls, your system boundaries, data flow diagrams, and the security architecture that protects CUI throughout your environment.
Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) Management
For controls that are not yet fully implemented, CoreRecon develops and manages your POA&M to track remediation progress, assign responsible parties, set deadlines, and ensure every open item is resolved before your C3PAO assessment.
CMMC Pre-Assessment Preparation
Before your formal C3PAO assessment, CoreRecon conducts a mock assessment that replicates the actual certification process. We identify any remaining gaps, test your evidence documentation, interview key personnel, and ensure your organization is fully prepared to pass on the first attempt.
Ongoing Managed CMMC Compliance
CMMC compliance is not a one-time event. CoreRecon provides ongoing managed compliance services that include continuous monitoring through our SecurityCore+ platform, regular control assessments, policy updates, employee training, and incident response to ensure your organization maintains its certification and stays ahead of evolving threats.
