Assess all 110 NIST SP 800-171 requirements and 320 assessment objectives, and calculate your SPRS score, in one Excel workbook. Tested by filling every objective: all MET gives 110 and all NOT MET gives the methodology minimum of -203.
What you get
- Requirements sheet (Excel): all 110 requirements with verbatim NIST text, plain-English explanations, typical evidence, DoD point values and POA&M eligibility.
- Objectives sheet (Excel): all 320 assessment objectives from SP 800-171A, quoted verbatim, with MET / NOT MET / N/A dropdowns and evidence notes.
- Assessment Methods sheet (Excel): what an assessor would examine, who they would interview and what they would test, for each requirement.
- SPRS Score calculator (Excel): DoD Assessment Methodology scoring with partial credit for 3.5.3 and 3.13.11, a worst-case score for unassessed items and an SSP check.
- Conditional Status check and Dashboard (Excel): whether you meet the 88-point threshold with only eligible items open, and results by family.
- Start Here guide (PDF): steps, what good looks like and common mistakes.
Also included in the CMMC Level 2 Starter Bundle and the CMMC Level 2 Compliance Toolkit.
How to use it
- Define your scope (enclave or whole company) and have your SSP to hand (1 to 2 hours).
- Work through the objectives family by family, recording evidence for every MET (2 to 4 days over 2 to 3 weeks).
- Answer the two partial-credit questions on the SPRS sheet.
- Review the score, Conditional status and dashboard, and list blocking items.
- Put NOT MET items on your POA&M, update the SSP, then enter the score in SPRS.

Defense suppliers that handle CUI and need a NIST SP 800-171 self-assessment and SPRS score, and the MSPs who run assessments for them. CUI is sensitive but unclassified government information, such as export-controlled drawings, that your contract requires you to protect.

Questions about CMMC Level 2 / NIST 800-171 Assessment Workbook with SPRS Calculator
How does the SPRS score calculator work?
It follows the DoD Assessment Methodology: start at 110 and subtract the point value of each requirement NOT MET, weighted 5, 3 or 1. It handles partial credit for multifactor authentication (3.5.3) and FIPS-validated encryption (3.13.11), shows a worst-case score while items are unassessed, and flags a missing SSP.
What is Conditional Level 2 status?
Under the CMMC rule, you can hold Conditional status with a score of at least 88 out of 110 if the only open items on your POA&M are eligible ones, and you close them within 180 days. Some requirements, such as 3.12.4 (the SSP), can never be on the POA&M. The workbook checks this for you.
Do we need an SSP before using the workbook?
You need one before you can submit a score: requirement 3.12.4 requires a System Security Plan, and without it the self-assessment cannot be scored. You can start the workbook first to find gaps, but keep the SSP and workbook consistent. The Level 2 Starter Bundle includes both.
Is this based on NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 or Rev 3?
Rev 2, with the 320 objectives from SP 800-171A. Rev 3 exists, but Rev 2 is the baseline CMMC Level 2 and the DoD Assessment Methodology use today. Requirement and objective text is quoted verbatim from the public-domain NIST documents; check your contract for what applies to you.
