Small Business Achieves CMMC Level 2 Certification: Reynolds Construction's DIY Success Story


Listen Later

HR guy leads his company to CMMC level 2 certification! šŸ‘€

In this episode I’m joined by Eric Fields of Reynolds Construction to learn how he led his business to CMMC level 2 certification!

I call him "Eric the Great" - you'll see why in a moment.

Eric's background was in HR and business operations. He had no background in IT or cybersecurity.

They did it in-house - with just two people and smart choices.

šŸ‘‰ Here’s how they did it:

  • CMMC training from GRC Academy
  • Resources and advisory services from Kieri Solutions
  • CCP & CCA training
  • Meticulous documentation

This episode is very special to me - Eric's intro to CMMC was through GRC Academy more than 2 years ago, and he was actually the second person to leave a 5-star review on my CMMC training for defense contractors: https://grcacademy.io/course-reviews/cmmc-overview-training-eric-f-20230127/

This episode is a great reminder that small businesses can achieve CMMC certification without breaking the bank.

That said, time is no longer a luxury. With CMMC phasing in this summer, small businesses need to move fast - and partnering with a CMMC-focused MSP can help accelerate the process.

What were your biggest takeaways? Feel free to celebrate with "Eric the Great" in the comments!
