The DIB cannot afford the consulting bill. We're building the alternative.
Cincra exists because CMMC is a real deadline pointed at 300,000 small and mid-sized defense contractors who cannot pay $150,000 to a consultant to fill out a spreadsheet. We're building the software-native path to compliance: faster, cheaper, and produced by your own team — not rented from a third party.
Keep the U.S. Defense Industrial Base eligible to bid.
When DFARS 252.204-7012 and CMMC 2.0 fully phase in, contractors who cannot demonstrate NIST 800-171 compliance lose the right to win — or even keep — DoD contracts. We believe the answer is not to consolidate the DIB into a handful of mega-primes, but to give every contractor — including the 5-person machine shop in Ohio — the tools to comply on their own terms.
Truth over polish
We publish a pilot disclaimer in our own product. Marketing claims must reflect what's shipped — not what's roadmapped.
Customer-owned artifacts
Your SSP, POA&M, and evidence belong to you and are exportable any time. We don't lock compliance data inside our tool.
Defense-grade by default
Hash-chained audit logs, RLS tenant isolation, mandatory MFA — even before GovCloud, the security posture is built for sensitive work.
Built with auditors, not against them
Cincra's auditor workspace exists because C3PAOs told us what they need. Findings flow back into the contractor's program — no email attachments.
