Giga-Green Technologies

What Giga-Green Technologies does

Giga-Green Technologies, Inc. is a privately held, boutique CMMC consulting firm headquartered in Fargo, North Dakota, with additional offices in Minneapolis/St. Paul and Tucson/Phoenix. Founded in 2016 by William Galvin alongside co-founder Jared Finkelson, the firm specializes in helping U.S. Department of Defense contractors and Defense Industrial Base suppliers — typically small-to-mid organizations of 25 to 100 users — prepare for and pass CMMC Level 2 assessments. Services are delivered by named CMMC Registered Practitioners under a fixed-price engagement model, avoiding hourly billing and scope creep, and the firm operates as a Registered Practitioner Organization accredited via The Cyber AB.

The service portfolio spans the full CMMC readiness lifecycle: CAPE (a fixed-price Assessment Preparation Engagement that produces a defensible SSP, POA&M, validated SPRS score, and a go/no-go readiness decision); Microsoft 365 Commercial-to-GCC and GCC High migration (the government-cloud tiers aligned to DFARS 252.204-7012 CUI handling); Network & Endpoint Hardening against NIST SP 800-171 SC, AC, CM, and SI control families; CMMC Tabletop Exercises that satisfy IR.L2-3.6.3; DFARS 7012 Incident Reporting Readiness with a 72-hour DIBNet playbook; and C3PAO Assessment Prep (mock assessment, evidence library, interview coaching, day-of liaison support). The firm also offers Managed CMMC Program Support on a subscription-style basis and third-party product resale of Microsoft GCC/GCC High licenses and FIPS-validated hardware. The underlying technology stack centers on Microsoft 365 GCC/GCC High as the compliant cloud environment, Splashtop SOS (FIPS mode) for attended remote access, Azure Sentinel for SIEM/SOC, and Greenbone Security Manager for vulnerability scanning; Giga-Green has built an internal CMMC Copilot AI Assistant to accelerate documentation and evidence generation.

Revenue is generated through professional consulting services (fixed-price projects), managed services subscriptions, and hardware/license resale with an administrative fee. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct: discovery calls and consultation bookings with a stated one-business-day response, supported by a content-forward organic acquisition engine including Weekly CMMC Office Hours (Thursday public Q&A), free Level 1 and Level 2 self-assessment tools mapped to all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls, on-demand webinars, a CMMC glossary, and a public Resource Center. Customer segments span DoD primes and subcontractors, manufacturers, software firms handling CUI source code, government consultants, and critical infrastructure operators with multi-framework compliance needs. The firm is founder-owned, with no disclosed institutional investment.

Core offering

Giga-Green Technologies is a boutique CMMC consulting firm that helps DoD contractors and defense industrial base suppliers pass CMMC Level 2 assessments. Its core offering is the CAPE (CMMC Assessment Preparation Engagement), a fixed-price methodology that produces a defensible System Security Plan (SSP), Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M), validated SPRS score, and scope definition, ending with a clear go/no-go decision on assessment readiness. Surrounding CAPE, the firm delivers Microsoft 365 GCC/GCC High migrations, Network & Endpoint Hardening, CMMC Tabletop Exercises, DFARS 7012 Incident Reporting Readiness, and C3PAO Assessment Prep as fixed-price services led by named CMMC Registered Practitioners.

Product overview

Giga-Green Technologies is a boutique CMMC consulting firm offering a portfolio of professional services — not a single unified software product. The core service line includes CAPE (fixed-price assessment preparation engagement producing SSP, POA&M, SPRS score, and scope documentation), Microsoft 365 GCC/GCC High migration, Network & Endpoint Hardening, CMMC Tabletop Exercises, DFARS 7012 Incident Reporting Readiness, and C3PAO Assessment Prep. These services are delivered sequentially by named consultants as a consulting methodology (assess, remediate, manage) rather than as licensed software modules. The firm also offers free self-assessment tools, a CMMC Resource Center, Weekly CMMC Office Hours, and free video/webinar content. Giga-Green has built internal AI tooling (CMMC Copilot AI Assistant) to accelerate documentation work, though this is not a standalone customer-facing product.
