Table of Contents:

[DENVER, COLORADO, UNITED STATES, December 14, 2025]

There’s real momentum building at AdRem Systems Corporation. This month, we welcomed Chris Stocker to the team. Chris joined AdRem to support strategic growth across the Rocky Mountain region, beginning in Denver, Colorado, and now serves as Regional Director, reflecting his expanded role in shaping AdRem’s long-term regional engagement strategy.

Chris brings more than a decade of experience in compliance-driven IT and cybersecurity and will support organizations navigating increasingly complex requirements tied to federal contracting, regulated environments, and cybersecurity readiness.

Why the Rocky Mountain Region, and Why Now?

The Rocky Mountain region is experiencing continued growth across industries where cybersecurity and compliance aren’t optional—particularly aerospace, defense, manufacturing, and federal-aligned commercial organizations. At the same time, requirements like CMMC, HIPAA, and other regulatory frameworks are raising expectations for operational maturity, documentation, and security controls.

With the 2026 contracting cycle approaching and CMMC readiness becoming more time-sensitive, many organizations are looking for trusted partners who can help them assess their current posture, close gaps early, and avoid last-minute risk. Chris’s appointment strengthens AdRem’s ability to engage earlier in that process, supporting organizations that want to scale securely while staying aligned with evolving compliance expectations.

Meet Chris Stocker: Regional Leadership with Compliance Focus

Chris Stocker joins AdRem with established relationships across Colorado and a strong background in regulated IT operations. His experience supporting compliance-driven organizations makes him uniquely positioned to help businesses prepare for federal and regulatory requirements while maintaining reliable, secure systems.

In his role as Regional Director, Chris will partner with AdRem’s commercial and leadership teams to expand awareness of AdRem’s cybersecurity, compliance, and managed IT capabilities, particularly among organizations navigating requirements such as CMMC, HIPAA, and federal contracting obligations.

“Chris has spent years building trusted relationships across Colorado’s business, defense, and aerospace communities, and when he shared his vision for supporting those organizations more directly, it aligned immediately with where AdRem is headed,” said Lisa Cardenas, VP of Commercial Services at AdRem Systems Corporation.

“His roots in the region, paired with his thoughtful approach and leadership, made it clear he was looking for the right partner to bring meaningful work to life. We’re honored that he saw that alignment in AdRem and chose us as the partner to help bring that vision to life.”

What Chris Will Focus On in the Rocky Mountain Region

Chris will help strengthen AdRem’s ability to build relationships and guide organizations through early-stage readiness and planning. In this role, he will focus on:

  • Building strategic relationships across Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region
  • Supporting compliance-focused organizations operating in regulated and federal-aligned environments
  • Introducing AdRem’s managed IT, cybersecurity, and compliance readiness capabilities to regional decision-makers
  • Supporting early-stage conversations around CMMC readiness, audit preparation, and long-term cybersecurity strategy

Partnering with AdRem’s internal teams to align services with regional demand and mission-fit opportunities

Supporting Compliance-Focused Growth in 2026

Chris’s appointment supports AdRem’s long-term growth strategy in markets where cybersecurity and compliance requirements continue to rise. Many organizations preparing for CMMC Level 2 and other federal-aligned obligations are seeking guidance long before a contract opportunity reaches its final stage.

AdRem is reinforcing its ability to engage earlier in the process helping teams map requirements, clarify readiness priorities, and reduce the risk of avoidable compliance gaps.

Chris will also work alongside Compliancy Sherpa LLC to support early-stage conversations around readiness assessments and compliance strategy, especially for organizations preparing for CMMC Level 2 and other regulated obligations. AdRem expects to begin deeper engagement across Colorado in early 2026, with future regional decisions shaped by client demand, partnerships, and long-term mission alignment.

“Colorado has always been home, and over the years I’ve built relationships with leaders who are looking for the right cybersecurity and compliance partner,” said Chris Stocker.

“I’ve long envisioned being able to support that community more directly, and after many conversations across the industry, AdRem was the organization whose mission and values aligned with the kind of impact I want to make.”

What This Means for Compliance-Focused Organizations

For organizations operating in regulated environments, this appointment strengthens AdRem’s ability to support clients through compliance and cybersecurity planning earlier in the process, especially as CMMC deadlines and federal cybersecurity expectations continue to accelerate.

Here’s what this means in practical terms:

  • More direct regional engagement for organizations preparing for CMMC and federal contracting requirements
  • Earlier access to guidance around readiness assessments, documentation planning, and risk reduction
  • Stronger support for long-term compliance strategy; not just short-term remediation
  • Continued focus on security, reliability, and operational maturity for regulated industries

Expanded leadership support as AdRem builds its long-term presence across the Rocky Mountain region

Regional Engagement Begins in Early 2026

With Chris in place, AdRem will begin engaging organizations across Colorado in early 2026, with a focus on building the right relationships and supporting compliance-focused initiatives where they matter most.

Strategic decisions around future regional presence will continue to be guided by client needs, partnership opportunities, and long-term alignment with AdRem’s mission: delivering secure, reliable services without sacrificing personal support.
