In this episode of the Cuick 10 Podcast, Derek White, Chief Operating Officer of Cuick Trac, sits down with Jeff Smedley, retired CIO and CMMC strategy consultant, to explore how CMMC can go beyond compliance to drive organizational value.

Jeff shares how his company achieved a perfect assessment score and leveraged CMMC to unlock board alignment, private equity support, and a billion-dollar exit. From cultural transformation to financial metrics, this conversation reframes CMMC as a growth opportunity—not just a mandate.
