The CMMC Challenge
As a small government contractor handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), CMMC certification wasn’t optional for Alluvionic Inc. Without it they would put themselves at risk for:
- Bidding on new DoD contracts
- Retaining existing government contracts
- Competing in an increasingly compliance-focused marketplace
In addition to being a contractor, they were one of the earliest Registered Practitioner Organizations (RPOs) in the industry. Since they are hired by other companies facing similar cybersecurity compliance challenges, they need to prove to current and future customers they know the process and are capable of getting certified.
“We’re project managers at heart so we are always looking at the organizational impact of decisions. PreVeil offered us a way to roll this out in a more streamlined fashion, leading to time and cost savings.”

EVP of Commercial Services, Alluvionic Inc.
The Path to CMMC: Building Your Foundation
Preparing for a CMMC assessment requires three critical components working together:
1. Internal Expertise
As an RPO, Alluvionic had CMMC expertise in-house and was confident about evidence collection, documentation preparation, and what is required to prepare for the final assessment.
2. Proven Security Solutions
At the core of Alluvionic’s compliance strategy, they needed technology to protect CUI that meets CMMC’s requirements.
Alluvionic ultimately chose PreVeil, saying “the decision was easy” due to:
- Affordability: The cost of implementing PreVeil was significantly cheaper than alternatives.
- Proven: 50 contractors have achieved CMMC with PreVeil
- FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency: PreVeil has the required CMMC certifications
- Minimal Organizational Impact: PreVeil streamlines implementation and deploys quickly and efficiently, without impacting out-of-scope IT systems.
“For us and many of our clients PreVeil has proven to be a great fit.“

3. Technical Infrastructure
Next, their IT environment needed to be properly configured and hardened. Fortunately they already had a trusted Managed Services Provider (MSP) partner, TeamLogic IT of Melbourne and Vero beach, who helped deploy and configure the technology stack needed to secure their CUI and meet CMMC’s technical controls.
Real Results
When you assemble the right team and technology, achieving CMMC certification becomes manageable. Here’s what that looked like for Alluvionic.
Perfect Assessment Score
They achieved a perfect 110/110 score on their C3PAO-led CMMC assessment with zero Plans of Action and Milestones (POA&Ms), meaning no deficiencies to remediate.
Business Growth
Certification immediately opens doors. They can confidently bid on new government contracts and secure existing relationships without compliance concerns hanging over their head.
Competitive Advantage
In a market where many contractors are still struggling with compliance, certification sets them apart as a trusted, capable partner for government work.
Turning CMMC Success into a Playbook
Imagine approaching a RPO to support your CMMC journey and learning they just successfully went through the process themselves? That was the experience for RUSH Family of Companies. Alluvionic quickly gained trust by sharing their process for achieving CMMC success and replicated the same playbook, leveraging PreVeil, to get RUSH to 110.
“Getting CMMC certified gives us credibility and helps us stand out to both our commercial customers and our government customers.“
