Coalfire Federal

Coalfire Federal is a C3PAO purpose-built to deliver predictable, efficient CMMC Level 2 assessments that Defense Industrial Base contractors can plan their business around year after year. Involved in the CMMC program since its inception and among the first organizations authorized by the Cyber AB, we operate with mature assessment processes that reduce uncertainty, minimize evidence churn, and keep timelines on track. Beyond the initial assessment, we stay with our clients through ongoing validation and reassessments, helping CMMC remain a stable, manageable part of the business and protecting long-term contract continuity.
