Teal Launches New CMMC Brand That Empowers Defense Contractors

Teal, an independently owned managed IT services and managed compliance advisor, launched its new brand, Teal CMMC. Designed specifically for defense contractors and suppliers, Teal CMMC assists small- to medium-sized businesses from the beginning of CMMC Level 2 readiness through to the growth stage – helping contractors strengthen their compliance posture and overall competitiveness.

Building on Teal’s 26-year legacy of supporting regulated businesses and experience as a Cyber AB-approved RPO, Teal CMMC delivers a comprehensive suite of services, including:

  • Managed IT services designed for Defense Industrial Base organizations.
  • CMMC consulting to identify Controlled Unclassified Information scope.
  • NIST 800171 gap analysis and readiness assessments.
  • SSP/POA&M development to formalize documentation and remediation.
  • Secure enclave design, built for GCC High and Azure Government environments.
  • Security-first operations backed by ISO 27001 certification, CompTIA Security Trustmark+, and a Silver Stevie® Award for Customer Service.

“High‑performing federal contractors know that growth depends on disciplined, well‑designed IT systems,” said Reid Johnston, Teal’s Chief Intelligent Transformation Officer and cofounder. “That’s why we integrate managed IT, compliance engineering, and first-hand audit experience to give executives a clear path to business expansion. We remove the friction, modernize the environment, and deliver the kind of IT maturity that lets leaders focus on their long-term opportunities.”

“Leaders shouldn’t have to choose between pursuing growth and managing complex compliance requirements,” said Gar Whaley, Teal’s Chief Revenue Officer and cofounder. “Too many federal contractors lose momentum because their IT systems weren’t built with CMMC in mind. We unify security, IT operations, and compliance into one cohesive engine. That turns what used to be a significant distraction into predictable progress so executives can focus on winning contracts, instead of worrying about their infrastructure.”

Teal CMMC is now available to organizations seeking a seasoned, partner-first approach to IT, cybersecurity, compliance, AI, and automation. For more information, visit Teal CMMC or contact Brittany Watson, Marketing Manager, at (703) 740-8797 or [email protected].
