The defense industrial base in Georgia
Robins Air Force Base in Warner Robins is home to the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex, which maintains and modernizes Air Force aircraft, and to many sustainment and engineering contractors. In Marietta, north of Atlanta, Lockheed Martin builds the C-130J military transport.
Augusta is a growing cyber center: Fort Gordon is home to U.S. Army Cyber Command and the Army’s Cyber Center of Excellence, which has drawn cyber, signals and IT firms to the area. Fort Benning near Columbus trains Army infantry and armor soldiers, Fort Stewart near Savannah is home to the 3rd Infantry Division, and Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay hosts ballistic missile submarines.
Aircraft sustainment, cyber and manufacturing suppliers often handle CUI, which calls for CMMC Level 2. Suppliers that only hold FCI need Level 1. We help you confirm which applies and prepare for it.

How we work with Georgia contractors
Galaxy Consulting works remotely and on site by arrangement from its base in Fort Washington, Maryland. We do not have an office or a local phone line in Georgia. Most CMMC readiness work runs well remotely: scoping workshops and interviews by video, evidence review over a secure file share, and documents drafted with your team. When a walk-through of your facility helps, we arrange on-site time.
- Free 30-minute readiness call. We read your clauses and talk through your likely level.
- Scope and level determination. We map your system boundary and separate FCI from CUI, so Level 1 or Level 2 covers only what it must.
- Gap assessment. A practice-by-practice review with a written gap report, a prioritized remediation roadmap and an SPRS score estimate. See what a NIST 800-171 gap assessment includes.
- Remediation and documentation. Control implementation support, the System Security Plan (SSP), policies, procedures and POA&M.
- Self-assessment and SPRS support. Help with your self-assessment, SPRS submission and annual affirmation.

Where CMMC stands today
The CMMC program rule, 32 CFR Part 170, took effect on December 16, 2024, and the contract clause, DFARS 252.204-7021, on November 10, 2025, which started Phase 1. On July 13, 2026 the Department of War (DoD) suspended the move to Phase 2. During the suspension, new requirements may only call for Level 1 (Self) or Level 2 (Self), and DFARS 252.204-7012 and NIST SP 800-171 still apply. Read what the Phase 2 suspension means.

Frequently asked questions
We are an IT firm in Augusta supporting Army cyber work. Do we need Level 2?
Often, because cyber and signals support work commonly involves CUI. Your level is set by the information you handle and the clause in your contract, so we start by reading them with you.
Can you support a Georgia company remotely?
Yes. Scoping workshops, interviews and evidence review run well by video and secure file share, and on-site time can be arranged when a visit helps.
Does Galaxy Consulting have an office in Georgia?
No. Galaxy Consulting is based in Fort Washington, Maryland, and has no office or local phone line in Georgia. We work with Georgia contractors remotely, and on site by arrangement when a visit helps.
Can Galaxy Consulting certify my company for CMMC?
No. Galaxy Consulting advises and prepares; it does not certify. As a Registered Provider Organization (RPO) we help you get ready and support your self-assessment. Official CMMC Level 2 certification assessments are conducted by an authorized C3PAO, and Level 3 assessments by DCMA’s DIBCAC.
