Method

How it runs

  1. Phase 1

    Kick-off

    Confirm the scope and list the systems, services and teams it covers.

  2. Phase 2

    Foundations

    Policy, roles, objectives and the risk method: clauses 4 to 6.

  3. Phase 3

    Risks and controls

    The risk assessment, the treatment plan and the Statement of Applicability.

  4. Phase 4

    Evidence

    Your team uploads evidence against each control in the portal; we review it.

  5. Phase 5

    Internal audit and management review

    Done by someone not involved in the earlier phases, as the standard requires.

  6. Phase 6

    Audit readiness

    A summary of open points and the handover to your certification body.

Price

Three paces, one set of deliverables

The certification body's audit fee, typically EUR 6.000 to 12.000, is paid by you to them. It is never part of my price.

Questions

Asked before ordering

Who does the certification audit?

An accredited certification body that you choose and contract. We prepare you; we never audit what we advised.

Do we have to implement all 93 controls?

No. The Statement of Applicability records which controls apply to your risks and why the others do not.

How do we pay?

Half when you order and half at the certification-audit milestone. Online payment opens once the company's payment account is live.
