Use cases

Who Sprint is for

Sprint is designed for organisations that need to achieve certification efficiently, without building an in-house compliance function from scratch.

First-time certification

Organisations pursuing SOC 2, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials or any other framework for the first time.

Customer-driven deadlines

When an enterprise customer or partner has set a certification deadline and you need to move fast.

Funding round requirements

Investors increasingly require evidence of security compliance. Sprint gets you certified before your round closes.

Tender qualification

Public sector and enterprise tenders often require specific certifications. Sprint ensures you qualify.

Post-incident recovery

Following a security incident, Sprint helps you implement the controls needed to demonstrate improved security posture.

Rapid market entry

Entering a new market or geography that requires specific compliance credentials before you can operate.

Process

How Sprint works

A proven, end-to-end process that takes you from gap analysis to certified, with your dedicated consultant managing every step.

01

Kick-off and scoping

We agree the target framework, certification scope, timeline and key milestones. You are assigned a dedicated compliance consultant.

02

Gap analysis

We conduct a thorough gap analysis against your target framework, producing a prioritised remediation plan.

03

Remediation sprint

Working alongside your team, we implement controls, write policies, and close gaps, moving at pace to hit your certification timeline.

04

Pre-audit readiness review

Before your audit begins, we conduct an internal readiness review to validate that all controls are in place and evidence is complete.

05

Audit support

We support you throughout the audit process, managing auditor communications, responding to queries and providing additional evidence as needed.

06

Certification and handover

Once certified, we provide a handover pack covering how to maintain your programme and what to expect at your next annual audit.

Deliverables
