Why TurboFCL

First-time applicants face an acronym salad.

New entrants to the defense industrial base have no in-house security department and no baseline understanding of the process, yet they must satisfy strict DCSA requirements to win their first Facility Clearance.

400hrs

Compliance labor per application

Assembling a first-time FCL package by hand consumes roughly 400 hours of work, an impossible ask for a founder without a security team.

9-12mo

Typical time to a first FCL

Between paperwork, resubmittals, and process confusion, the path to a first clearance commonly stretches across nine to twelve months.

Nooks Solution

TurboFCL

Less headaches.
More results.

Just as automated tax filing navigates the tax code so a citizen doesn't have to read it, TurboFCL navigates the NISPOM so a startup CEO doesn't have to become a security expert.

Now in Pilot

A guided workbook, not another manual.

Guided Task Workbook

A structured checklist walks you through every FCL task: CAGE Code, business records, ownership and control, SF-328 foreign interest, and KMP lists.

Document Parsing & KMP Auto-Fill

Upload your corporate documents and TurboFCL extracts and auto-fills your Key Management Personnel list, eliminating manual, error-prone entry.

Rosetta Stone Terminology

Maps the varying language of state-level corporate documents to the strict terminology DCSA requires, so nothing gets lost in translation.

AI Red-Flag Review

Run an AI review across your data and files to surface compliance issues and discrepancies early, before you submit to DCSA.

On the roadmap: direct API submission to DCSA, automated org-chart generation, and SF-328 auto-fill. TurboFCL is self-service software and does not include security consulting, which is available separately through Nooks Managed Security Services.
