Win Government Contracts Without Hiring a Security Team

Yes — CMMC applies based on the type of data your contract involves, not your company size. If you handle Federal Contract Information (FCI) or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) on any DoD contract, CMMC requirements apply regardless of whether you have 5 employees or 5,000. The Pentagon has confirmed that DIBCAC audits do not discriminate based on company size. In fact, small businesses are often more vulnerable to enforcement because they have fewer resources to identify and close compliance gaps proactively.

Our guarantee is simple: all GovDataHosting infrastructure and platform services will meet the requirements of your government security assessment. This covers physical controls, network architecture, encryption, logging, access controls, and all other infrastructure-layer controls required by NIST 800-171, CMMC Level 2, and FISMA. If an infrastructure control is found deficient during your assessment, we remediate it at no additional cost. You are responsible only for application-level controls specific to your software. We provide written documentation of our control implementations to support your SSP and assessment evidence package.

For the infrastructure layer, yes. The reason traditional compliance takes 12–18 months is that most organizations must procure secure infrastructure, harden it, document it, and then prepare for assessment — all from scratch. Because GovDataHosting's AWS GovCloud environment is already FedRAMP High authorized with all infrastructure controls pre-implemented, we skip the build phase entirely. Your 60–90 days is spent on onboarding, application deployment, documentation customization, and C3PAO readiness review. Note that your C3PAO assessment scheduling may have its own wait times given current demand; we help you book early.

Typically yes, and it works in your favor. Under DFARS flow-down requirements, your prime is responsible for ensuring you meet CMMC requirements. When you can point to a FedRAMP High P-ATO authorized infrastructure provider as your hosting environment, it gives the prime strong confidence in your security posture. We provide documentation packages specifically designed to satisfy prime contractor security questionnaires and supply chain risk assessments. Many of our small business clients find that hosting on GovDataHosting becomes a competitive differentiator in subcontractor selection.

Our compliance team manages your SPRS submission and ongoing score maintenance as part of your service package. We track your control implementation status, update your SPRS score as remediation closes POA&M items, and prepare your annual CMMC affirmation documentation for your senior official. When CMMC Phase 2 enforcement requires third-party C3PAO assessments (November 2026), we coordinate your assessment engagement, prepare your evidence package, and provide on-call support during the assessment itself.

Yes, and this is one of our most popular capabilities for small businesses. Our fixed monthly pricing is designed to be included as a direct cost line item in your IBDS, task order proposals, and IDIQ responses. Because we're on GSA MAS and NASA SEWP V, you can reference the contract vehicle and pricing, which strengthens your proposal's cost credibility. Our team can provide pricing letters and contract vehicle documentation for your proposal submissions.
