The CMMC Level 2 Assessment Guide has been released by the DoD, and it is recommended that both contractors and C3PAO’s use this guide when attempting to reach compliance or conducting assessments. The Assessment Guide, like the model itself, is built mostly from the NIST 800-171 framework. Specifically, the objectives found in NIST 800-171A.
Certified Assessors will gather information and evidence to independently verify that a contractor meets the stated assessment objectives for all the required practices and processes.
According to the guide itself and confirmed to ComplyUp by several C3PAOs familiar with the matter, 100% of the objectives found in the guide must be met in order to achieve CMMC certification:

Assessment Objectives identify the specific list of objectives that must be met to receive MET for the practice as defined in NIST SP 800-171A”
– CMMC Assessment Guide Level 2 v2.0, page 20
ComplyUp’s CMMC Assessor Field Sheet will get you familiar with these objectives and help you centralize your assessment findings.
