Prepare a defense-contractor environment for CMMC Level 2 certification: scope CUI and FCI, implement the 110 NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 security requirements across 14 families, compute the SPRS score with the DoD Assessment Methodology, manage a compliant POA&M, and ready the organization for a C3PAO assessment. Use when an organization handles Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) under a DoD contract, when a contract carries DFARS clause 252.204-7012/7019/7020/7021, when preparing for or responding to a CMMC assessment, when computing or improving an SPRS score, when building a System Security Plan or POA&M for 800-171, or when scoping which systems are in the CUI boundary. Keywords: CMMC, CMMC Level 2, NIST 800-171, SP 800-171 Rev 2, CUI, FCI, SPRS, DFARS 7012, C3PAO, POA&M, System Security Plan, DoD Assessment Methodology, 110 controls, defense industrial base, DIB, FedRAMP equivalency.

# Achieving CMMC Level 2 Compliance
## When to Use
- When an organization in the **Defense Industrial Base (DIB)** stores, processes, or transmits **Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)** under a DoD contract.
- When a contract includes **DFARS 252.204-7012** (safeguarding/incident reporting), **-7019/-7020** (NIST 800-171 self-assessment + SPRS), or the new **-7021** (CMMC requirement).
- When preparing for a **C3PAO** third-party assessment or a DoD-led assessment.
- When you must **compute, post, or improve an SPRS score** based on the NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment Methodology.
- When authoring or remediating a **System Security Plan (SSP)** and **POA&M** for the 110 requirements.
- When **scoping** which assets fall inside the CUI/FCI boundary (CUI assets, security-protection assets, contractor risk-managed assets, out-of-scope).
## Prerequisites
- Knowledge of **which contracts carry CUI** and the CUI categories involved (check the contract and the DoD CUI Registry).
