Defense contractors in Kennewick, Richland, Pasco, and across Washington State are running out of runway to get audit-ready.
The CMMC final rule took effect November 10, 2025. New DoD contracts can already require CMMC compliance. By November 2026, many contractors handling CUI will need a third-party (C3PAO) certification to win or keep work.
The government recently settled a $4.6M False Claims Act case against a contractor that overstated its security score. Self-attesting wrong is now a legal liability, not a harmless shortcut.
Roughly 80,000 defense-supply-chain companies — subcontractors and prime contractors alike — need to meet the standard. Approximately 1% are certified so far. The firms that prepare early win; the rest scramble or lose contracts.
Tri-Cities, WA defense contractors and federal subcontractors trust Rimrock Security because we do the work — we don't hand it off.
You work directly with the person doing the assessment — never a junior, never a hand-off. You get undivided attention and accountability from day one through final deliverable.
Automated scanners can't sign off a control, chain an attack path, or walk through your front door. Rimrock does all three — and every finding is explained in plain language your CEO and your assessor can both read.
Every gap-check output is mapped to your 800-171 controls with clear remediation priorities — formatted so your CMMC consultant, your prime, or a C3PAO assessor can follow the trail.
Based in Tri-Cities, WA — serving Kennewick, Richland, Pasco, and the broader Pacific Northwest defense industrial base. Fully insured. Clear written authorization before we ever touch a system.
Rimrock Security provides readiness assessment, gap identification, and remediation support against NIST 800-171 and CMMC Level 2 requirements. Final CMMC certification is performed exclusively by an authorized C3PAO (Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization) and is not included in this service. Your organization remains responsible for meeting all 110 NIST 800-171 requirements. Rimrock helps you understand where you stand, close the gaps, and demonstrate that your controls hold — so you go into your C3PAO assessment prepared.
Fill out the form below and we'll be in touch within one business day to schedule your 30-minute call. No spam, no obligation.
We'll scan your internet-facing footprint and give you a short readout of what an attacker would see first — completely free. A simple, no-risk way to see how Rimrock works before committing to anything.
No cost, no obligation — just a clear picture of where you stand against the NIST 800-171 controls that matter most.
