Certification Readiness
Readiness here means “have you walked the sourced stages and gathered evidence.” It is not a FedRAMP score, authorization, or Marketplace listing. The Readiness Checker must not invent a score without evidence (#550).
Educational resource only. scm.cc is not a FedRAMP Recognized Independent Assessor (3PAO) and is not FedRAMP-authorized; it grants no authorization, certification, or assessment outcome. FedRAMP.gov is the authoritative source. This is not legal advice.
Technical detail
The Readiness Checker at /learn-fedramp-20x/tools/readiness-checker is a reading list of these stages, not a score. Missing evidence stays missing.
Questions teams ask
- Will scm.cc give me a readiness percentage?
- Not without stored evidence. A percentage with no evidence is a false green and is not published.
