Smoother C3PAOs assessments at preferred pricing
Secureframe's C3PAO Partner Network connects organizations with vetted assessors that are experienced on the platform. Whether you use an in-network C3PAO or choose your own, Secureframe will enable them directly in the Audit Module, ensuring a smooth and efficient assessment from start to finish.
Many DIB organizations struggle to identify qualified assessors, understand pricing expectations, or determine when they’re ready to engage a C3PAO. Long wait times, unclear assessment timelines, and mismatched expectations can stall certification and put contract eligibility at risk.
Even well-prepared organizations face delays when assessors are unfamiliar with their readiness tool. This disconnect can lead to unnecessary back-and-forth, duplicate requests, longer assessments, and higher costs, despite a strong underlying compliance posture.
Secureframe connects customers with assessors who have experience evaluating organizations using the Secureframe platform. These C3PAOs understand how CMMC evidence and documentation is generated in-platform, so assessments run more efficiently and with fewer delays.
Secureframe’s trusted partner network is designed to help assessment-ready organizations connect with qualified C3PAOs and move through the assessment process more efficiently.
Secureframe helps customers focus on readiness before introducing assessment partners. Our partner network also includes CMMC Registered Practitioner Organizations (RPOs) that can help guide organizations through readiness before engaging a C3PAO. This ensures organizations engage a C3PAO at the right time. Not too early when they’re underprepared and not too late when they’re contracts are at risk.
The C3PAO Partner Network is a core capability within Secureframe Defense, where infrastructure, controls, and evidence come together in one system. Teams can connect their tech stack, track control implementation, build key policies and documents like SSPs and POA&Ms, monitor live SPRS scores, and prepare for assessment all in one streamlined solution.
