How a readiness & governance assessment engagement runs, what happens in each phase and what you see. Exact scope, tier and timeline are fixed in your proposal and SOW.
01Scoping & framework selection
The standard or regulation, the systems and the business units in scope are fixed.
You see · Your audit or regulatory driver.
02Evidence collection & interviews
Policies, configurations and records reviewed; control owners interviewed.
You see · Documents and time with control owners.
03Gap analysis
Each requirement mapped to current state: met, partial or missing, with the evidence behind it.
You see · A clear gap register.
04Roadmap & evidence plan
Prioritized remediation with owners, and the evidence an auditor will ask for.
You see · A plan you can execute or hand to us.

Scoping call
A practitioner, not a salesperson, walks through targets, constraints and what a good outcome looks like for you.
- 02
Proposal & rules of engagement
A fixed-scope proposal with tier, price and deliverables. Rules of engagement, contacts and out-of-bounds systems are agreed in writing.
- 03
Sign, then start
MSA and SOW are signed electronically and the deposit is paid. Only then does testing begin.
- 04
Execution
Testing runs to the agreed plan. Critical findings are escalated as they are found; you don't wait for the report.
- 05
Report & debrief
An executive summary plus technical findings with evidence, reproduction steps and fixes, walked through with your team.
- 06
Retest
Where the tier includes it, we verify your fixes and reissue the report, so auditors and customers see the issues closed.
Timelines are set per engagement in the SOW.
