We support both enterprise-scale programs and smaller organizations with focused needs. Our team combines deep federal compliance experience with advanced enterprise integration capabilities, allowing us to serve as a capable partner at any scale.

Dr. Hansen participated in the original CMMC working groups and has led numerous large-scale technology initiatives.
Our recent successful completion of the DISA ATO Accelerator Pilot at Capitol Technology University demonstrates our ability to deliver innovative solutions that meet the rigorous demands of federal and enterprise environments.
Federal Validation — DISA ATO Accelerator Pilot
In 2024–2025 APS Global conducted a formal ATO Accelerator Pilot with the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Emerging Technology and Risk Management Directorates. The pilot was performed at the Capitol Technology University Tech Hub at no cost to the government.
Using a decommissioned DISA system and more than 300 historical compliance documents, the pilot demonstrated LLUCE’s ability to complete a full NIST SP 800-53 Revision 4 to Revision 5 gap analysis and associated POA&Ms in five business days — significantly faster than traditional RMF timelines. DISA Risk Management personnel reviewed the deliverables and noted the potential for cleaner ATO package submissions that can reduce review time.
