CMMC Liftoff for Defense Contractors

Cut Through the Confusion. Build What Matters. Get Work Done.

You’re responsible for meeting CMMC requirements — and you know the stakes are high. The problem? Conflicting guidance, tool fatigue, and “compliance-in-a-box” vendors promising the moon with no accountability.

CMMC Liftoff is the one-day event designed to bring you clarity, confidence, and actual progress on your compliance journey.

This isn’t another conference full of vague theory or talking heads in an echo chamber. You’ll sit with real experts, get your hands dirty, and leave with parts of your compliance program actually built.

Presented by:

What You’ll Accomplish

Get Scoping Right

Most contractors fail because their scope is wrong. Learn how to map your data, your users, and your systems — and finally understand what’s really in scope.

Write Your SSP with Expert Help

Join a live, guided SSP Writing Workshop where you’ll draft real control statements and receive on-the-spot feedback.

Start Your Compliance Management Program

Build the foundational components of a sustainable program — not just one-and-done checkboxes.

Shift Your Culture, Not Just Your Tech

Assessors are looking for more than tools. Learn how to lead a culture of compliance inside your organization to not only get compliant, but to stay compliant.

Face the Financial Reality — and Plan for It

From pricing your proposals correctly to understanding False Claims risk, we’ll address the uncomfortable truth about cutting corners — and how to afford doing it right.

You're Not Alone In This.

You’ll hear directly from other DIB contractors — organizations just like yours — who will share their CMMC journeys, missteps, wins, and what they’d do differently. You’ll also connect with vetted vendors who understand the stakes and are committed to your success. 

It's Time to Gain Momentum!
