On Schedule to Obtain DoD CMMC 2.0 Level 2 Certification by Mid 2025

ROCKVILLE, Md.: #CMMC--OSIbeyond, a Managed Service Provider (MSP), and Registered Practitioner Organization (RPO) with the Cyber Accreditation Body, announces that it has achieved NIST 800-171 compliance and is on schedule to obtain the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 Level 2 certification by mid 2025. This achievement underscores OSIbeyond’s continued commitment to supporting its government contractor client base and ensuring adherence to the cybersecurity requirements set by the Department of Defense (DoD).

An independent NIST 800-171 assessment, performed by Edwards Performance Solutions, an authorized C3PAO, verified that OSIbeyond has successfully met all 110 controls outlined in the NIST 800-171 Rev. 2 framework. This assessment marks a significant milestone as OSIbeyond progresses toward full CMMC 2.0 Level 2 certification.

Payam Pourkhomami, President and CEO of OSIbeyond and GovCon Expert on CMMC, emphasized the importance of CMMC compliance for MSPs supporting government contractors: “Our number one priority is to ensure that our GovCon clients achieve certification by the time the CMMC rollout begins. We recognize that as an MSP, it is our responsibility to meet the CMMC compliance obligations and not become a roadblock to the success of our client’s business, but also to help facilitate their competitive advantage in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB).”

As outlined in the December 26th CMMC 2.0 proposed final rule, if an Organization Seeking Certification (OSC) utilizes an External Service Provider (ESP), the ESP must also be certified at the same level as the OSC. If an organization’s ESP fails to meet this requirement, the contractor will be unable to achieve CMMC certification and continue working with that ESP. Consequently, the contractor will be ineligible to be awarded future DoD contracts.

To maintain CMMC compliance, the DoD requires MSPs to be CMMC certified. Given the sensitive nature of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and the significant access MSPs have to contractor’s data, adherence to these standards is critical. Compliance is not only vital to DoD contractor’s business operations but more importantly for national security.

For the past 18 months, OSIbeyond has been dedicated to achieving CMMC compliance and has established itself as an industry leader. Contractors whose Managed Service Provider (MSP) has not significantly advanced in meeting NIST 800-171 or CMMC 2.0 compliance by keeping up with evolving regulations, will not be able to achieve certification.
