We cover:

• The four stages of compliance cost: paperwork, project work, ongoing maintenance, and assessments
• What assessors can and can’t help with
• Enclave strategies that can save you thousands
• Why smaller companies feel a heavier burden—and how to manage it
• Smart scoping, VDI, and how not to overspend on your CMMC journey

If you’re trying to balance compliance with a tight budget, this episode is a must-listen.
