CMMC compliance for assembly operations
CMMC Compliance for Assembly Operations
Defense assembly operations run on work instructions, test procedures, and serialized build records that are almost all CUI. We bring your assembly floor to CMMC Level 2 without breaking takt time.

Assembly suppliers take kits of parts and turn them into finished defense assemblies, electronics modules, mechanical subsystems, weapons accessories, soldier-worn equipment, and more. The work instructions, assembly drawings, ATPs, and serialized build records that drive the line are almost all CUI.
The cybersecurity challenge in assembly is process integrity. A manipulated work instruction or tampered test result can produce defective product that ships undetected. CMMC Level 2 controls for configuration management, audit and accountability, and media protection directly address that risk.
Your customers, including primes like RTX, Northrop Grumman, and L3Harris and OEMs of tactical gear and electronic warfare systems, are pushing CMMC Level 2 flow-down onto new awards. Assembly suppliers that cannot demonstrate readiness will lose qualification.
We build CMMC programs tailored to assembly environments. We protect the MES and the ERP, segment the production network, and implement access controls that do not get in the way of a 10-second takt.

Policy and documentation
SSP, POA&M, incident response plan and the supporting policy set, written in plain English for how you operate.
Technical controls
Network segmentation, FIPS-validated encryption, MFA, audit logging, vulnerability management and endpoint hardening.
Managed compliance
Log review, vulnerability scanning, quarterly evidence refresh and annual SSP updates between assessments.
Assessment support

Assembly Operations: CMMC questions
What CUI do we handle?
Work instructions, ATPs, BOMs, AVLs, serialized build records, and NCRs tied to defense products are almost always CUI.
Can our operators access CUI?
Yes, with need-to-know access controls, training, and audit logging in place.
Will CMMC slow down the line?
Not when scoped correctly. Controls live on engineering and management workflows rather than the takt-time operations.
