Description

In part two of The Quality Hub: Chatting with ISO Experts, host Xavier Francis continues his conversation with Rick Krick, Director of Security Solutions at Core Business Solutions, to explore what the CMMC becoming law truly means in practice. Rick explains how contractors can still compete if they're not yet fully certified, what “conditional certification” allows, and the critical flow-down responsibility that requires every subcontractor in the defense supply chain to meet compliance standards. The discussion covers the biggest readiness gaps across the DIB (Defense Industrial Base), how small businesses can gain a competitive edge by acting now, and why documentation, monitoring, and continuous compliance are vital for long-term success. With real-world examples of costly noncompliance and practical advice on narrowing scope, maintaining SPRS scores, this episode is an essential guide for any company preparing for the future of cybersecurity and defense contracting.
