Audit and supplier readiness
Map SOC 2, CPCSC, CMMC, or customer-driven security requirements to scope, evidence, owners, and remediation.
DevSecOps, cloud security, compliance
Pass the audit. Keep shipping.
For teams facing SOC 2, supplier review, CPCSC, or CMMC pressure. We scope the risky path, produce the controls and evidence, and help delivery keep moving.
Trusted by teams with cloud, security, and compliance pressure
What we do
Four ways teams hire us.
Most engagements start with one pressure point. The work scales from a focused pilot to deeper implementation when the path is clear.
CPCSC and CMMC readiness
Translate defence supply-chain requirements into scope boundaries, control owners, evidence, and remediation steps.
Cloud architecture and security
Review cloud foundations, identity, network boundaries, cost signals, and resilience risks before they become blockers.
DevSecOps implementation
Secure one software release path with CI/CD controls, evidence output, rollback rules, and operating handoff.
What clients say about us
Senior judgment, clean handoff, no surprises.
Their understanding and experience with the AWS suite of products and solutions were impressive.
Nelson did a great job at figuring out numerous things specific to our setup, resolving unforeseen problems as they arose. He provided further guidance and advice on things outside of the original scope as well.
Pilotcore made a number of suggestions about architecture which greatly improved security and redundancy.
Proof points
Credibility comes from systems touched, not a louder promise.

The Readiness Pilot
A focused 1-4 week engagement to scope, control, and reduce one delivery or compliance risk before you commit to a larger implementation.
$7,500 starting
- Scope one operational, cloud, or compliance risk.
- Map the evidence, controls, owners, and next steps.
- Turn uncertainty into a plan your team can run.
Pilot promise
If a smaller boundary discovery is the right first move, we will say so before you spend on the wrong work.
We only take a small number of focused pilots each month so delivery stays senior-led.
1
Pick the path
Choose the release, cloud, or compliance path where the risk is visible enough to scope.
Output: Named scope and decision owner 2
Map the evidence and controls
Identify owners, gaps, artifacts, and the practical work that reduces the risk.
Output: Evidence map and gap list 3
Implement or hand off
Co-build the first improvement, or leave your team with a scoped plan it can execute.
Output: First fix or executable planTwo common tracks
Two tracks, depending on who is asking for the evidence.
A SaaS company asks for proof your team can operate securely. A federal contract asks for traceable controls and evidence. The work overlaps, but the path and the language differ.
Track 1: growing teams
SOC 2, supplier reviews, and enterprise procurement.
For SaaS teams that need better evidence, safer release paths, and answers for customer security reviews.
- CI/CD controls and deploy evidence
- Cloud security review and remediation
- Owner-ready handoff notes
Track 2: defence supply chain
CPCSC and CMMC for the defence supply chain.
For Canadian suppliers preparing for federal cybersecurity requirements without turning the program into theatre.
- Scope and boundary mapping
- Control and evidence planning
- Remediation roadmap for technical owners
Questions you may ask
The four that come up most on the first call.
How is this different from working with an offshore team?
You know exactly who's working on your systems. No anonymous contractors, no unclear data handling, no wondering who has access to your code. For companies pursuing CMMC or handling sensitive data, that matters. We're a small team you meet directly, operating under Canadian privacy law, with full transparency about who touches your infrastructure.
Can't our team just figure this out?
Absolutely, if you have senior security architecture expertise, spare capacity, and experience with your specific compliance framework. Many teams we work with tried the DIY approach first. They came to us when they realized the opportunity cost of pulling engineers off product work, or when their first audit revealed gaps they didn't know to look for. We help compress the learning curve through our specialized experience.
We're not ready to commit to a large engagement yet.
Fair. That's why we offer pilot projects, focused 1-4 week engagements that demonstrate our expertise and deliver real value. You see how we work, we assess fit, and then you decide if a larger engagement makes sense. No pressure to commit beyond the pilot.
What does a typical engagement cost?
The Readiness Pilot starts at $7,500 for a focused 1-4 week engagement. Full implementations vary by scope. A DevSecOps pipeline build differs from a compliance readiness program, and final pricing depends on discovery findings. Book a call and we will scope it together so you get a clear estimate before committing.
Bring the pressure point. We turn it into a clear first move.
