Industries

Different vocabularies. The same work.

We work with five industries most often — defense contractors, healthcare organizations, professional services, financial services, and manufacturing. Different regulators, different acronyms, different audit cycles. The pattern doesn't change: scope honestly, document well, fix the right things first, defend the work in front of someone who's paid to find holes.

The five industries

Each page is written for the people who actually have to deal with it.

No shared "compliance" bucket. The vocabularies are too different, and the buyers are too smart to be talked down to. Pick the page that matches your world — or scroll past, if none of them do, and we'll cover that case at the bottom.

01
CMMC · DOD

Defense Contractors.

For DoD primes and subs facing CMMC.

Boundary scoping. System Security Plans that auditors actually approve. POA&M and remediation. GCC High decisions (most don't need it). SPRS submission support. Pre-assessment audits before the C3PAO walks in.

If your prime sent you a flow-down clause and a calendar — this is the page.

Across all three

The acronyms differ. The pattern is identical.

After enough engagements across DoD, healthcare, and professional services, you start seeing the same shapes underneath. Three things travel across all three.

01

Each industry has an audit cycle, and it never stops.

CMMC has its assessment window. HIPAA has the OCR complaint that triggers the audit you didn't expect. Professional services has the vendor questionnaire that arrives every renewal. Different forms, same rhythm — and the businesses that prepare in advance pay less than the ones that scramble.

02

AI changed the conversation everywhere at once.

The exact same pressure shows up across all three: tools entering the business before the policies do, vendors claiming more compliance than they can actually deliver, regulators sharpening their pencils. Defense contractors got it through DoD AI guidance. Healthcare got it through OCR's AI focus. Professional services got it through the bar opinions and AICPA guidance. Same problem, three vocabularies.

03

The work pattern is identical.

Scope honestly. Document well. Fix the right things first. Defend the work in front of someone who's paid to find holes. The acronym on the cover changes — CMMC, HIPAA, SOC 2 — but what's underneath looks the same once you've done it a few times. That's why we move fast across industries: the muscle memory is shared, even when the language isn't.
