— Intech Hawaii, a Security-First Managed Service Provider and Hawaii’s only CMMC Level 2 Certified MSP, proudly announces its role in successfully guiding Honolulu-based defense contractor PacMar Technologies through a rigorous Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 assessment. The official third-party assessment was conducted by authorized C3PAO, CG Silvers Consulting.
This achievement marks a critical milestone for PacMar Technologies, a premier provider of advanced maritime research, artificial intelligence, and engineering solutions for the Department of Defense (DoD) and the U.S. Navy. By passing the C3PAO assessment, PacMar has validated its ability to securely handle and protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) against evolving cyber threats, ensuring compliance with the stringent NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 framework.
The successful certification is the culmination of a highly collaborative, 12-month remediation and preparation effort. Throughout the process, PacMar Technologies partnered with Intech Hawaii’s team of CMMC Certified Professionals to strengthen its cybersecurity posture and successfully advance its compliance journey.
Leveraging their deep expertise in Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) requirements, Intech Hawaii architected and deployed a secure Managed CMMC Enclave. This specialized environment isolated PacMar’s sensitive DoD research data, allowing their engineers to focus on cutting-edge prototyping while Intech Hawaii managed the heavy lifting of continuous monitoring, access controls, audit logging, and assessment readiness.
“Achieving CMMC Level 2 is an incredibly heavy lift, especially for an organization pushing the boundaries of autonomous maritime R&D like PacMar,” said Terence, VP Client Strategy at Intech Hawaii. “When we joined forces 12 months ago, our mandate was clear: build a secure, compliant environment that protected their highly sensitive DoD data without slowing down their innovation. Getting through the rigorous assessment with CG Silvers Consulting is a testament to the absolute dedication, transparency, and hard work of both the Intech and PacMar teams.”
Mitchel Kagawa, IT Director at PacMar Technologies, played a pivotal role in championing the compliance overhaul internally.
“Bringing Intech Hawaii on board 12 months ago was the turning point in our CMMC journey,” said Mitchel Kagawa. “We needed a partner who truly understood the DoD landscape and could translate complex NIST requirements into actionable technical solutions. Intech’s local presence and ‘Security-First’ approach gave us the confidence and the infrastructure we needed to successfully navigate the C3PAO assessment with CG Silvers Consulting.”
As the DoD phases in its CMMC 2.0 requirements, prime contractors and subcontractors throughout the defense supply chain are facing increased pressure to validate their cybersecurity posture. Intech Hawaii remains committed to helping Hawaii-based defense contractors achieve audit-ready compliance, offering comprehensive gap analyses, remediation services, and ongoing Managed CMMC Compliance.
