As CMMC enforcement moves from policy to practice, architecture and engineering firms must understand how Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) affects their design workflows especially when using project information platforms like Newforma.
While software platforms are not CMMC-certified, firms are responsible for ensuring that how they store, transmit, and manage CUI within those systems meets compliance requirements.
Led by Guernsey, a Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO) and full-service A/E firm, this session breaks down what triggers CMMC, what design artifacts qualify as CUI, and how project management systems enter your assessment boundary. Attendees will gain practical, real-world strategies for securing cloud environments, managing consultant access, documenting controls, and preparing for assessment without disrupting project delivery.
If your firm works on DoD projects, this session will provide clarity, reduce uncertainty, and help protect your future contract eligibility.
