Let's cut through the noise. CMMC Level 2 compliance doesn't have to bankrupt your company. If you're a small or medium-sized defense contractor drowning in compliance costs and confusing consultant proposals, there's a better way.
The traditional approach to CMMC compliance is broken. Consultants charge $200,000+ for assessments that leave you with a mountain of paperwork and no actual security infrastructure. You end up paying premium prices for premium confusion.
The Real Cost of Traditional CMMC Compliance
Here's what most companies face when tackling CMMC Level 2:
- Initial consulting fees: $50,000-$150,000
- Gap analysis and remediation planning: $25,000-$75,000
- Infrastructure overhaul: $100,000-$300,000
- Ongoing management and monitoring: $15,000-$30,000 monthly
- Annual assessments: $35,000-$85,000
That's easily $400,000+ in the first year alone. And here's the kicker: most of these solutions don't even work when you need them most.

Managed Service vs. Traditional Consulting: The Real Difference
Traditional consulting leaves you holding the bag. Consultants do their assessment, hand you a report, collect their check, and disappear. You're left trying to implement complex technical requirements with internal IT staff who have day jobs.
CPE Level 2 is a completely different approach:
Traditional Consulting Problems
- You own all the implementation risk
- No ongoing support after initial engagement
- Compliance is your responsibility to maintain
- Hardware failures are your problem
- Security monitoring is your headache
- Assessment preparation is your stress
CPE Level 2 Advantages
- We own the compliance outcome
- 24/7/365 managed services included
- Continuous compliance monitoring
- Hardware is our responsibility
- Security operations center handles threats
- Assessment readiness guaranteed
There's simply no comparison. One approach leaves you vulnerable and overwhelmed. The other delivers audit readiness in just 4 weeks with ongoing support that never stops.
Breaking Down the Real ROI
Let's look at a typical 3-year compliance scenario:
Traditional Approach (3 Years)
- Year 1: $425,000 (initial setup + consulting)
- Year 2: $200,000 (ongoing management + assessment)
- Year 3: $200,000 (ongoing management + assessment)
- Total: $825,000
CPE Level 2 Approach (3 Years)
- Year 1: $13,188 (monthly service)
- Year 2: $13,188 (monthly service)
- Year 3: $13,188 (monthly service)
- Total: $39,564
That's over $785,000 in savings while getting better security, faster implementation, and guaranteed compliance outcomes.
