Pilotcore Free CMMC Cost Estimator is a web-based calculator that provides cost estimates for achieving Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) compliance. The tool requires no email or payment to use and generates instant cost projections based on organizational parameters. The calculator guides users through a five-step assessment process that collects information about organization size, annual revenue, number of locations, industry sector, and geographic complexity. It evaluates current security posture including existing compliance certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2, FedRAMP, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171), cybersecurity tool maturity, IT infrastructure complexity, NIST 800-171 readiness, and dedicated cybersecurity staff levels. Users select their target CMMC level (Level 1 with 17 practices for Federal Contract Information, Level 2 with 110 practices for Controlled Unclassified Information, or Level 3 with 110+ practices for advanced protection). The tool accounts for assessment type, implementation timeline, scope complexity, support preferences, budget approach, risk tolerance, and training requirements. Cost estimates are based on DoD cost data and industry benchmarks, with ranges of $6K-$25K for Level 1, $30K-$100K+ for Level 2, and $100K-$300K+ for Level 3. The calculator provides multi-year total cost of ownership analysis and educational context for cost components.
