The CMMC Phase 2 certification process can take 3-6 months.
The November 2026 deadline isn't a suggestion - it's a cutoff.
As the premier cybersecurity specialist for Hawaii business, we created a rapid system to get everyone through this.
Cypac is providing a free CMMC Readiness Check from our Honolulu headquarters for Hawaii defense contractors. Receive a clear gap assessment against NIST SP 800-171 for Level 1 or Level 2 compliance before the November 2026 cutoff closes your bidding window.
"We'll scope your environment based on your requirements (Level 1 or Level 2), and show you what the path to certification looks like for your specific situation."

Do any of these describe your situation?
CMMC certification is showing up in your requirements documentation and you're not sure what it means for your next renewal.
You hold a DoD contract
You're a subcontractor and your prime has started asking about compliance status. A non-certified sub is a liability they can't keep.
Your prime is asking questions
Military drawings, technical specs, defense program data, personnel records — if it's marked CUI, Level 2 certification applies to you.
You handle CUI in your work
A prime or CO has told you directly to get certified or lose the work. You need a plan, not a search result.
You've been put on notice
Our free CMMC Readiness Assessment for Phase 2 was built for exactly where you are. No cost, no obligation.
Just a clear picture before your window closes.
What's actually at stake if you miss this deadline
This isn't a paperwork problem. Missing the CMMC Phase 2 deadline has direct, immediate business consequences -including personal liability for your leadership team.
You lose the contracts you already have.
DoD is inserting CMMC requirements into active contracts right now. Not future contracts. Current ones. Without certification, you can't perform work that requires Level 2 - and you won't get a grace period.
You can't bid on new work.
Any solicitation with a CMMC requirement excludes non-certified contractors at the proposal stage. The door closes before you can even make your case.
Your prime drops you.
Primes are legally responsible for their subcontractors' compliance. A non-certified sub isn't just inconvenient - they're a liability the prime can't afford to carry. You'll get replaced.
In Hawaii, reputation travels fast.
This is a tight-knit defense community. The contractors who get certified are the ones primes call first. The ones who don't are the ones who quietly disappear from the bid list.
The CMMC certification process can take up to 6 months. Don't wait any longer.
