AVCOR Selects Kahua for Enhanced Project Management
AVCOR Construction, LLC has made a strategic decision to partner with Kahua for robust project management systems. This collaboration marks a significant step towards ensuring compliance with Department of Defense (DoD) cybersecurity standards, particularly in light of the Cyber Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) requirements.
Why Kahua?
The choice to work with Kahua stems from its reputation as a leader in capital programs and construction project management information systems (PMIS). AVCOR, a veteran- and woman-owned federal contractor, recognized Kahua's strengths in managing DoD programs efficiently. Their extensive experience with Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) equips AVCOR with the confidence that Kahua can meet stringent CMMC standards while delivering successful project outcomes.
Key Features and Benefits
One of the standout features that influenced AVCOR's decision is Kahua's free CMMC app. This app is specifically designed to help government contractors compile evidence required for certification. It provides a secure and guided workspace for Federal contractors, allowing them to upload necessary compliance documentation seamlessly. The app also includes features for tracking progress and collaborating with consultants to ensure audit readiness.
Commitment to Cybersecurity
"CMMC has been long-anticipated," stated Lee Powers, President of AVCOR. "We are aware that meeting these requirements is key to securing future contracts with the DoD. By being among the first to achieve certification, we can enhance our competitiveness as we bid for Federal contracts.”
Powers underscored AVCOR's commitment to cybersecurity, asserting, "We sought a partner that values security just as much as we do. Even in areas where CMMC certification is not yet mandatory, our clients benefit from enhanced cybersecurity protections. We are dedicated to safeguarding our clients' data, even when they may not realize it. This approach future-proofs their sensitive information.”
AVCOR's Journey
“Finding the right project management system is an ongoing journey for any business,” Powers reflected. After an extensive search for a suitable PMIS, AVCOR found that Kahua was the perfect fit for their unique requirements. “We wanted a system that adapted to us rather than forcing us into a preset model. I am thrilled for our team to join forces with Kahua,” he added.
