# DoD Requires CMMC Compliance for Military Movers

A small Arizona moving company says meeting DoD CMMC Level 2 requirements could cost it approximately $80,000–$100,000 in the first year, plus ongoing expenses, and may prompt it to leave the military moving market. Military movers must meet 110 security controls by March 2027. A proposed grant in the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act would not cover military movers as currently written, creating a potential gap between the compliance costs suppliers face and the financial support proposed for them.

- **Key deadline:** Military movers must meet the stated CMMC Level 2 requirements by March 2027. Procurement teams and prime Transportation Service Providers should account for supplier readiness and potential capacity impacts in the military moving supply chain.
- Small businesses serving military families may face substantial upfront and continuing compliance costs; the company cited says those costs could lead it to exit the market.
- The proposed 2027 NDAA grant does not cover military movers as currently written. Movers and their contracting partners should not assume they are eligible for that proposed support.
