SMPL-C® is an AI-powered compliance automation platform designed to streamline cybersecurity compliance workflows, particularly for organizations subject to the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) and similar federal standards. The platform serves a range of users including CMMC consultants, Registered Provider Organizations (RPOs), Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), and internal compliance or IT security teams. SMPL-C® supports organizations in documenting, managing, and demonstrating compliance with frameworks such as NIST 800-171, DFARS, and CMMC Levels 1 and 2. SMPL-C® automates manual documentation tasks, risk assessments, Shared Responsibility Matrix alignment, and compliance status reporting. By digitizing traditionally spreadsheet-based workflows, it reduces the time and labor required to prepare for assessments or audits. Key features and capabilities include: - Centralized workspace to manage and track compliance obligations and evidence. - AI-guided workflows for gap analysis, self-assessments, and POA&M generation. - Built-in Shared Responsibility Matrix tool for service provider-client alignment. - Role-based access controls for collaboration across teams and external consultants. - Real-time dashboards and automated reports to support audit-readiness and management oversight. The platform is optimized for small and mid-sized businesses in the U.S. defense supply chain, as well as service providers who support those organizations. SMPL-C® helps users navigate complex regulatory requirements with clarity and precision, even when internal compliance expertise is limited. SMPL-C® does not require extensive onboarding and is typically used in the context of readiness assessments, pre-audit documentation, managed compliance programs, and ongoing cybersecurity posture monitoring.
