Denver defense contractors build satellites, launch vehicles, missile warning systems and the software that runs them. Denver defense contractors work with ITServices.Tech for managed IT that puts support, security, CMMC preparation and planning in one agreement.
The Front Range space economy
Colorado has one of the largest aerospace economies in the country. Lockheed Martin Space, United Launch Alliance, BAE Systems, Sierra Space, Maxar and Raytheon operate around Denver, Buckley Space Force Base is in Aurora, and more Space Force installations lie to the south in Colorado Springs. Hundreds of small companies supply parts, software and engineering.
CMMC preparation for space suppliers
DFARS clauses already require contractors with CUI to implement NIST SP 800-171 and post an SPRS score. CMMC clauses have appeared in contracts since November 10, 2025, and phase 2, from November 10, 2026, allows Level 2 certification assessments by a C3PAO to be required. We prepare you through scoping, gap analysis, remediation, policies and evidence. The C3PAO performs the assessment.
Engineering and software teams
Space companies run large engineering and software teams that use simulation, code repositories and test data that may be CUI or export controlled. Securing those tools without slowing engineers takes planning around enclaves, access and logging.
Right-sized environments
Many suppliers keep CUI in a GCC High tenant or secure enclave used only by people on defense programs, keeping costs proportionate while the rest of the company uses commercial tools.
Evidence that stays current
We keep log reviews, access reviews, patch records, training and backup tests current so evidence is ready for primes and assessors.

Colorado data rules to know
Colorado’s data security law, C.R.S. 6-1-716, requires notice to affected residents within 30 days of a breach, and to the Attorney General when 500 or more Coloradans are affected. The Colorado Privacy Act adds consumer rights for larger data holders.
