CMMC Readiness Advisory
We compare your setup to CMMC Level 2 practices, make a ranked list of fixes, and write the documents you need to get ready for an assessment.
🏛️ Federal Environment Experience
Technology and compliance advice for government contractors.
Winning and keeping federal contracts takes more than technical skill. You need strong security, written compliance controls, and the records to prove both. Contracting officers, auditors, and prime contractors will check.
Schedule a Compliance Review →Our Background
We have worked in federal environments. This is not just theory.
Our advisory experience includes supporting federal agency environments in defense, civilian health, and financial oversight. That experience shapes how we judge risk, read compliance rules, and help contractors build programs that hold up when checked.

This experience comes from enterprise technology leadership roles that supported these agencies. Tech 1 Services does not claim any federal contract vehicles. We have no audit authority beyond our advisory work.
The Real Challenges
What contractors actually get wrong.
Most lost contracts and compliance failures are not caused by a lack of technical skill. They come from gaps in oversight. Policies are missing. Controls are not written down. Security cannot stand up to a prime contractor's review or an agency audit.
CMMC Level 2 requirements creating urgency without a clear remediation path
NIST 800-171 self-assessments that are incomplete or indefensible
Cloud environments without governance controls, documented configurations, or audit trails
Proposal technical volumes that promise security postures the organization can't substantiate
Subcontractor relationships that create CUI handling and compliance exposure
Microsoft 365 and Azure environments not configured to federal security baselines
AI tools in use across the organization without acceptable-use governance or data handling controls
Advisory Services
What we deliver.
Practical help that lets contractors win, keep, and deliver on federal contracts.
NIST 800-171 Alignment
We help write your System Security Plan (SSP), guide you in putting controls in place, and support self-assessments if you handle Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
Cloud & M365 Governance
Azure and Microsoft 365 security settings that follow federal baselines: who can log in, who can see what, data protection, and activity logs.
AI & Data Governance
Rules for using AI tools, controls for handling CUI, and oversight of outside AI risks. For contractors who use AI while doing contract work.
Proposal Technical Support
We write the technology and security sections of proposals. They are accurate, they hold up to questions, and they match your real security and how you deliver.
Fractional vCISO for Contractors
Ongoing security oversight, reports for leaders, vendor risk management, and compliance upkeep, without hiring a full-time security chief (CISO).
Frameworks & Standards
We work in your compliance language.

Compliance Review
Find out where your compliance gaps are — before your next audit or proposal does.
A focused compliance review identifies the gaps that put contracts at risk and gives you a prioritized path to close them.
Start Here
A compliance gap assessment is the fastest way to know where you actually stand.
Most contractors discover their gaps during a proposal review or an audit. We find them first.
