Managed IT | Compliance & Governance
Compliance without the chaos
Governance and compliance services for firms to navigate regulatory requirements with clear policies, proper documentation, and audit-ready evidence.
Regulatory requirements shouldn't consume your leadership team
From SOC 2 and ISO 27001 to the security controls your cyber-insurance renewal and client contracts now require, the compliance landscape keeps expanding, and meeting your obligations shouldn't become a full-time job.
Requirements you can actually understand
Compliance frameworks are dense and confusing. We translate what’s required into plain language and practical steps, so you know exactly what needs to happen and why.
Policies that exist and get followed
You know you need documented policies but never get around to creating them. We develop practical policies and help embed them into how your team actually works.
Evidence at the ready
When clients ask about your security posture or auditors come knocking, scrambling to pull together documentation is stressful and time-consuming. We maintain audit-ready evidence so you’re always prepared.
Governance without the overhead
You don’t have the bandwidth for a full-time compliance function, but you still need proper controls in place. We provide the expertise and ongoing management without the headcount.
Sound Familiar?
Compliance gaps?
We help firms navigate regulatory requirements and client expectations, building governance frameworks that protect your business without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
Confidence in your posture
Know exactly where you stand against relevant standards and what needs attention, with no need for guesswork.
Policies that work in practice
Documentation that reflects how your firm actually operates, not generic templates that sit in a folder and never get used.
Audit readiness year-round
Continuous evidence collection and documentation so you’re never scrambling when a client or auditor asks questions.
Reduced risk exposure
Proper controls and governance that minimize your regulatory and contractual risk to protect your firm and your client relationships.
Clear path to certification
If you’re pursuing ISO 27001, SOC 2, or other certifications, we guide you through the process with a realistic roadmap and hands-on support.
Ongoing compliance management
Requirements evolve and controls need monitoring. We provide continuous oversight so compliance doesn’t slip once the initial work is done.
What's Included
Compliance & governance services
Five services that cover the whole compliance lifecycle, from first assessment to ongoing reporting. Each is scoped to your firm's actual obligations, not a generic checklist.
Compliance assessment
Your current posture measured against relevant standards, with gaps ranked for action.
Policy development
Required policies drafted around your firm: data handling, acceptable use, incident response.
Data governance
Controls for classifying, protecting, and handling sensitive project and client information.
Audit preparation & support
Evidence and guidance for audits, plus roadmaps to ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification and the security controls your cyber-insurance requires.
Compliance reporting
Regular reporting on posture and control effectiveness, with regulatory changes tracked as they land.
The Resolved Difference

Evidence ready for audits
Documentation, logs, and controls organized so that when a client questionnaire or audit arrives, the answers are already in hand.
A single point of accountability
One team owning your compliance posture, not a checklist vendor that hands you a binder and walks away.
Governance that keeps up
Ongoing monitoring and reviews so your controls stay current as regulations, clients, and your firm change.
Client security questionnaires, answered
When a client sends a security questionnaire, the answers come from evidence we already maintain, not a last-minute scramble.

FAQ
Compliance & governance questions
Do we need a full-time compliance person to work with you? +
No. We provide the compliance and governance expertise and ongoing management without the headcount, so you get proper controls in place without a full-time compliance function.
Can you help us get ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certified? +
Yes. If you are pursuing ISO 27001, SOC 2, or other certifications, we guide you through the process with a realistic roadmap and hands-on support, including audit preparation and evidence.
What happens when a client sends us a security questionnaire? +
The answers come from evidence we already maintain, not a last-minute scramble. We keep documentation, logs, and controls organized so that when a client questionnaire or audit arrives, the answers are already in hand.
Will you write policies our team will actually follow? +
Yes. We develop practical policies drafted around how your firm actually operates, then help embed them into how your team works, rather than generic templates that sit in a folder unused.
How is compliance different from risk management? +
Compliance shows you meet the requirements clients and regulators set. Risk management is the wider view of what could go wrong across security, continuity, and vendors, and which exposures your firm accepts, reduces, or insures. Most firms need both, so we run them as one program.

Two sides of the same coin
Compliance proves it. Risk management decides it.

Put a two-year plan behind your IT spend
Most firms buy technology one urgent decision at a time, with no plan behind the spend. A Strategic Technology Assessment fixes that: where your firm is today, where you want to go, and a two-year roadmap and IT budget to get there, quarter by quarter.
No obligation, and you do not have to switch providers to get the assessment. Deliverables yours to keep.
