Submit any questions you would like answered on the podcast! (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...) Scope is the foundation of your CMMC compliance program and getting it wrong is one of the most expensive mistakes a DoD contractor can make. In this episode, Austin and Brooke break down what “scope” actually means in plain English, why contractors skip scoping early on, and how one small miss, like a downloads folder or a USB handoff, can quietly pull major systems into scope. We cover: • What CMMC scope really is, including processed, stored, and transmitted CUI • Why contractors start with tools and policies too early • The data flow diagram exercise that reveals hidden scope issues • How scope mistakes turn into rework, delays, and major cost increases • Why “enclave” is often misunderstood and what it really means • What to do if you think you got scope wrong • How to self-check readiness using NIST 800-171A and the CMMC Assessment Process (CAP) • Why documentation and evidence, not just controls, become the real burden If you are planning for a Level 2 assessment, scope should be your first move, not your last-minute scramble.
