Since the 48 CFR CMMC final rule was published in September 2025 we've seen supplier notices from Lockheed, RTX, BAE, HII, and many others. Most recently, Northrop Grumman recently published a supplier announcement titled “CMMC 2.0 is Final – Are You Ready?”. The big takeaway: don't expect CMMC waivers from your prime customers because they can't grant them to you.
