How We Calculate Your CMMC ROI

Our calculator uses real-world data from Defense Industrial Base (DIB) contractors who have completed CMMC Level 2 assessments. The model factors in:

  • Consultant cost savings: Your current monthly consulting spend minus the cost of the CMMC Command platform ($749/mo for Professional).
  • Labor hour reduction: Manual compliance hours replaced by automated controls tracking, evidence collection, and document generation, valued at $75/hr average fully-loaded cost.
  • Contract risk mitigation: The value of DoD contracts at risk if you fail your C3PAO assessment, weighted by a 10% probability factor.
  • Time-to-readiness: Typical DIB contractors take 12–18 months with consultants. CMMC Command users average 3–6 months with the guided assessment workflow and AI-powered gap analysis.
