New subscription-based model eliminates upfront costs and replaces fragmented CMMC projects with a fully managed, continuous compliance model.

ROCKVILLE, Md.: OSIbeyond, a leading managed IT and cybersecurity provider specializing in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), today announced the launch of its Compliance as a Service (CaaS) solution, a fully managed, subscription-based model designed to replace traditional project-based approaches and help defense contractors achieve and maintain Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) compliance without the traditional complexity and upfront costs.

CMMC compliance has become a critical requirement for organizations seeking to win and retain U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) contracts. However, many contractors face significant barriers, including high upfront implementation costs, fragmented vendor ecosystems, and ongoing operational challenges in maintaining compliance over time.

OSIbeyond’s CaaS solution addresses these challenges by delivering a single, integrated operating model that combines secure infrastructure, managed IT services, cybersecurity operations, and continuous compliance management into a single, predictable monthly service.

“Most organizations are trying to solve it like a project, when it really needs to be managed like an ongoing system. CMMC isn’t just a one-time project-it’s an ongoing operational requirement,” said Payam Pourkhomami, CEO of OSIbeyond. “We built CaaS to remove the complexity and financial barriers that prevent contractors from moving forward. This model allows organizations to focus on their core business while we manage the environment, security, and compliance required to support their success.”

Unlike traditional approaches that often require $50,000 to $100,000 or more in upfront implementation costs, OSIbeyond’s CaaS model eliminates initial capital investment and provides a fully managed solution delivered through a predictable monthly subscription.

CaaS delivers everything required to achieve and sustain CMMC readiness:

- Secure, compliant environments leveraging Microsoft GCC or GCC High and enclave architectures

- Fully managed IT and cybersecurity operations, including monitoring and incident response

- Implementation and maintenance of CMMC-aligned controls

- Continuous compliance management, documentation, and audit readiness

OSIbeyond is a CMMC Level 2 certified organization, demonstrating its ability to meet the rigorous security requirements to support contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). The company is also a Microsoft partner with deep expertise in GCC and GCC High environments, enabling secure, compliant cloud architectures aligned to DoD requirements. In addition, OSIbeyond is an active member of the MSP Collective, reflecting its commitment to industry collaboration and best practices in managed services.

A key driver behind the development of CaaS is the need to eliminate vendor fragmentation and create a single accountable partner for both IT operations and compliance.

“Once we committed to CMMC Level 2, I knew we wanted a managed service provider that also offered CMMC support,” said Fania Carter, Chief Executive Officer of SSC. “A key requirement was working with a single provider for both IT operations and CMMC support. I didn’t want to separate the two.”

By consolidating these components into a single platform, OSIbeyond enables contractors to reduce internal burden, eliminate vendor fragmentation, and maintain continuous readiness for CMMC assessments.

“Most organizations underestimate the effort required to maintain compliance over time,” added Pourkhomami. “Our approach ensures that compliance is not only achieved but sustained, helping organizations remain competitive as CMMC requirements continue to roll out across the defense ecosystem.”

The launch of CaaS comes at a critical time as the DoD continues to roll out CMMC requirements across its contractor ecosystem, increasing the urgency for organizations to adopt scalable and sustainable compliance solutions.
