MOCK ASSESSMENT ONLY. NO ADVISORY CONFLICT.

Schedule Your CMMC Mock Assessment.

Sera Brynn conducts the evidence review a Level 2 certification assessment would, without the certification decision attached. You learn where you stand before a contracting officer, a prime, or DCMA asks.

The Suspension Removed a Gate.
It Did Not Lower the Standard. 

Your CMMC clause stays in force until a signed modification removes it, and that modification follows your option schedule, not the Department's. DFARS 252.204-7012 still requires NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2. Your SPRS score still carries False Claims Act exposure. Primes still require flowdown evidence.

Correcting a score on your own terms is a commercial conversation. Being corrected by a DCMA assessor is not.

Your Deliverables 

  • Evidence-based SPRS score. Your score recalculated against documented evidence, not recollection.
  • Control objective findings. Each NIST SP 800-171A objective marked met or not met.
  • Documented evidence gaps. Each unmet objective recorded with the evidence the assessor could not verify.
  • CUI scope findings. An assessment of whether your defined boundary holds.
  • Executive findings briefing. Assessment results and exposure presented to leadership.

Assessment Methodology  

Our assessors apply the methodology used in a C3PAO certification assessment: document examination, interviews with control owners, and testing against every NIST SP 800-171A objective. The outcome differs. You receive assessment findings. Nothing posts to SPRS. 

Built for Contractors Who 

  • Hold a contract with DFARS 252.204-7021 and face an option exercise within twelve months
  • Last validated their SPRS score more than a year ago
  • Receive flowdown requests from a prime
  • Paused a C3PAO engagement after July 13 and need to know what finishing requires

Led by Certified CMMC Assessors 

Sera Brynn is an Authorized C3PAO under the CyberAB (CPN 59175). Eight Certified CMMC Assessors work here as employees, not contractors. The firm has conducted assessments across defense and regulated environments since 2011.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a mock assessment a certification?

No. It produces assessment findings. Nothing posts to SPRS, and no certification status is issued. 

Does the Phase 2 suspension make a mock assessment unnecessary?

No. DFARS 252.204-7012, NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2, and annual SPRS affirmations are unchanged. The CMMC clause remains on your contract until a modification removes it. 

How long does a mock assessment take?

Most mock assessments take two to three weeks. Duration depends on the size and complexity of your environment, and Sera Brynn confirms the timeline during the scoping call. 

Can Sera Brynn conduct our certification assessment afterward?

Yes. A mock assessment is an assessment without the certification decision. Sera Brynn provides no consulting or advisory services during the engagement, so the firm remains eligible to conduct your Level 2 certification assessment.
