Make documents, people, and system behavior tell the same story
Gridex offered this until 2026-07-25. The description it carried at the time was: “How CMMC Level 2 assessors use Examine, Interview, and Test, and how an organization can prepare evidence and owners without scripting or manufacturing answers.”
Examine: inspect documents, mechanisms, and activities
Interview: ask people who operate or oversee the process
Test: exercise the relevant mechanism or activity
The assessor selects methods needed for sufficient confidence
Examine finds the documented and observable record
Potential objects include policies, procedures, plans, diagrams, configurations, logs, tickets, inventories, records, mechanisms, and activities. The list in assessment procedures is a selection set, not a requirement to produce every listed object.
Interview connects evidence to actual responsibility
The strongest interview preparation is not a memorized script. It is a clear owner model and access to current evidence. Staff should be able to explain what they do, when they do it, what system or record shows it, and what happens when an exception occurs.
Test checks behavior, not marketing language
A test may exercise the mechanism or observe the process under assessment conditions. The evidence coordinator should identify the responsible operator and required access, while the technical owner and assessor control the test.
Concrete, client-owned operating records
Facts, not verdicts
Gridex coordinates evidence and people. Gridex does not coach false answers, control assessor sampling, or operate systems outside the agreed role.
Frequently asked questions
Must an assessor use all three methods for every objective?
No. The guide allows flexibility. The assessor selects methods and objects needed to reach sufficient confidence.
Can one artifact support multiple objectives?
Yes. The organization should map actual support relationships rather than create artificial one-file-per-objective packages.
Source context
This is reference material, not an offer.
Gridex is a managed operations firm. Managed Voice Operations is the primary growth line and Managed Workflow Operations is the secondary line. There is no dashboard for anyone on the client side to run. The Voice Demo is in pilot as of 2026-08-11. Managed Voice is not yet operating for customers; demo calls are product tests, not customer production. No customer result or tested third-party integration is published. Managed Workflow Operations is the secondary line running today, and it is in validation.
