Big Decision Energy: Stay Ahead of Compliance Chaos

This month's issue: How to not get left in the dust by government contracts, a no-BS guide to launching a digital transformation, and how a manufacturing giant leveled up their ISMS.

🚨 CMMC Compliance Deadlines Are Coming

Government contractors, this is not a drill. The DFARS CMMC Acquisition Rule (DFARS 252.204-7021) has cleared final review and is expected in the Federal Register within the next 1–3 weeks. Once it’s published, enforcement begins in just 60 days.

Translation: no CMMC compliance, no government contracts.

The good news? BD Emerson has you covered. We’ve teamed up with Paramify, a compliance automation platform that generates audit-ready documentation instantly and keeps your processes validated, monitored, and reported in real-time. Pair that with BD Emerson’s hands-on security consultants, and you’ve got the fastest path to compliance—without breaking the bank.

Technology Corner: Digital Transformation, Decoded

Your infrastructure isn’t just IT. It’s the backbone of your compliance, security, and growth. In today’s digital-first landscape, transformation means survival.

Our own Alan, Managing Partner of the Tech Practice, is launching a new column to break it all down. His first piece? A no-BS guide to Digital Transformation: what it really means, how to avoid the hype, and how to pick the right partner to make it happen.

A Subtle Flex (a.k.a Case Study)

We love celebrating client wins, and this one’s big.

Lincoln Industries, a leader in large-scale manufacturing, needed ISO 27001 certification yesterday. Already rocking ISO 9001 for quality management, they wanted a unified Information Security Management System (ISMS) to align governance across both standards fast.

BD Emerson delivered. Curious how?
