Abstract: The CMMC Program provides for the assessment of contractor implementation of cybersecurity requirements to enhance confidence in contactor protection of unclassified information within the DoD supply chain. CMMC contractual requirements are implemented under a Title 48 acquisition rule, with associated rulemaking for the CMMC Program requirements (e.g., CMMC Scoring Methodology, certificate issuance, information accessibility) under a Title 32 program rule (32 CFR Part 170). The CMMC Title 32 program rule includes two separate information collection requests (ICR), this one for the CMMC Program and one for CMMC eMASS. This information collection is necessary to support the implementation of the CMMC assessment process for Levels 2 and 3 certification assessment, as defined in 32 CFR 170.17 and 170.18 respectively.
