The platform provides a simple effective way for RPO organizations to walk through a readiness engagement with a client, either following their own methodology or using the prescribed templates. The platform automatically generates dashboards, documents, and reports which follow the required CMMC standards.
This information can be securely shared with auditors, C3PAO's, governing bodies, and appropriate parties within the OSC organization on a permission-access basis.

The platform’s benefits extend beyond compliance management. It enables RPOs to deliver CMMC readiness assessments out of the box, streamlining the assessment process and saving valuable time and resources, ensuring deliverable consistency across consulting and advisory resources. RPOs can establish a comprehensive prioritized lists of risks through the CRT Risk Register providing their OSC clients with vital insights for well-informed risk decisions.
Leveraging the CRT platform benefit, RPOs can significantly increase the number and quality of assessments per resource or consultant.
