Our process begins with a free 60-minute consultative workshop that prevents wasted effort and unnecessary work. We make sure there’s no doubt on direction.

Determine the right path

Establish whether to validate existing programs or build a new one.

Our CMMC certification process

Two paths, one outcome

Already have an operational program? Our Validation path prepares you for audit. Need to establish a defensible program? Our Build path delivers the foundations you need to proceed with confidence.

The Validation path

If you have an established program with defined system boundaries, implemented controls, and mapped evidence, we validate, strengthen, and prepare you for formal assessment.

Ideal for those with a current System Security Plan (SSP) Confirm boundaries & analyze control gaps Review evidence & refine where needed Targeted remediation where necessary Ensure your audit readiness Accelerate certification timeline

The Build path

If controls are incomplete, ownership undefined or scope unclear, we help you establish a defensible program built on clarity, not assumptions.

Step 1: The CMMC on-ramp

Before engineering begins, we discover and validate your requirements to get executive alignment and eliminate any mid-stream surprises.

Certification requirements and DFARS applicability Defined boundary strategy & architectural direction Clear risk drivers & investment expectations

Step 2: Boundary engineering & control implementation

With clear, defensible answers, we then implement your CMMC program in phases, starting with certification boundary engineering and validation.

Aligned shared responsibility across stakeholders Technical & administrative controls implemented Policies & evidence mapped to CMMC objectives
The Fellsway model

Continuous validation over costly rework

Where traditional CMMC programs implement first, then review and discover gaps that need costly and disruptive rework, our approach validates while we build, not after.

Assess and implement together

From the moment your Build begins, we continually validate against assessment criteria and evaluate processes so your program is aligned to audit expectations from day one.

  • Implement controls against key criteria
  • Immediately identify evidence needs
  • Map documentation to actual operations

Prepare for continuous compliance

Certification is a milestone, not the finish line. After assessment, we support sustained readiness through ongoing oversight and measured governance.

  • Maintain, review and update documentation
  • Adapt to regulatory changes
  • Prepare for recertification
