Assessment Anxiety

The Cost of Being Unprepared

C3PAO assessments are expensive, time-consuming, and high-stakes. You don't get a practice run—unless you create one yourself.
Failed assessments cost $15K-$50K in wasted fees
You can't redo failed assessments for 90+ days
Surprise findings destroy timelines and budgets
Contract opportunities slip away while you remediate
Teams freeze under pressure without practice

Our Process

We conduct a comprehensive mock assessment over 3-5 days, mirroring the actual C3PAO process.

Pre-Assessment Preparation

We review your documentation, evidence repositories, and team roster to plan the assessment.

Evidence Review

We examine all artifacts, logs, policies, and documentation for each required control.

Team Interviews

We conduct structured interviews with your team to validate control implementation.

Findings & Remediation

You receive detailed findings with specific steps to close any gaps before official assessment.
Why Mock Assessments?

Assessment Confidence

Finding gaps during mock assessment costs nothing. Finding them during official assessment costs everything.
