Checkpoint

The console behind every engagement — and yours to keep.

Every certification we run happens inside Checkpoint — posture scans, a live control constellation, a compliance fingerprint that updates as controls land, an in-tenant AI that drafts but never writes. It's provisioned in your Microsoft 365 tenant on day one, and it's included in the engagement, not sold as a separate line item. Stop working with us and it doesn't disappear — it's already yours.

The third-party platform tax, calculated

What does the third-party GRC-platform route really cost you?

Vanta, Drata and similar third-party platforms charge a per-seat annual licence on top of the consulting you still need — a fee that outlives the engagement and keeps renewing whether you need it or not. We deliver the same certification inside Microsoft 365, on Checkpoint, our own console — included, fixed-price, nothing to renew. Move the sliders.

B2B SaaS Platform — 120 employees, Melbourne

A recent engagement
Situation
Three enterprise deals stuck in procurement, all waiting for SOC 2 Type II. Sales needed certification in weeks, not months.
Constraint
Mid-evaluation of a third-party GRC platform: $35k/yr licence + $60k consulting — $165k over three years.
Delivery
Trust Services Criteria mapped directly to existing M365 controls. Evidence capture in SharePoint, automated Power BI reporting via Checkpoint — already living in their tenant. No third-party platform introduced.
Outcome
Type II readiness in 10 weeks at less than half the platform-led quote. Three deals closed within 60 days of certification.

"SOC 2 was a direct sales blocker. Compliance365 delivered Type II readiness in weeks, at a fraction of the usual cost. The reusable evidence pack has since closed multiple six-figure deals."

Honest comparison

We compete with three things. Here's how we differ from each.

Most buyers are evaluating us against Big 4 consulting, a third-party GRC platform, or another Australian boutique.

vs

Big 4 consulting

Deloitte, KPMG, PwC, RSM and similar.

  • Same certifications, 60–80% lower fees
  • Senior practitioner end-to-end — not juniors learning on your project
  • Fixed price, milestone-gated, no scope creep
  • Direct accountability — one point of contact
vs

Third-party GRC platforms — Vanta, Drata & co.

Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, 6clicks and similar.

  • No annual third-party platform licence — $90k–$165k saved over 3 years*
  • Checkpoint, our delivery console, is included — not a second SaaS subscription to manage
  • Evidence lives in Microsoft 365, where your team already works
  • Senior practitioner included — not just software
vs

Australian boutiques

CyberSapiens, Cyber Forte, CyberPulse and similar.

  • Microsoft 365-native delivery, not framework-agnostic templates
  • ISO 42001 early-mover specialisation
  • 100% first-time pass rate, documented across all engagements
  • One evidence set, multiple certifications

Common questions

Answered plainly — no jargon, no evasion.

Will this disrupt my engineering or operations team?

No. Everything is built directly inside your existing environment — Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Intune, Defender. No third-party platform to roll out, no forced change management, no endless meetings. Checkpoint, the console we deliver on, lives in your tenant from day one — your team logs in with the Microsoft account they already have. Your team stays focused on their actual work.

How long does it actually take?

Assessments deliver in 2–3 weeks. Full uplift and certification programmes typically run 8–14 weeks for SMB scope, and up to 6 months for mid-market programmes covering all controls. We give you a realistic timeline on the first call — not a number designed to win the pitch.

What does it cost?

All engagements are fixed-price with milestone-based payments — you only pay when outcomes are demonstrably delivered. Typical programmes run at 60–80% less than large consulting firms, with no annual third-party platform licence on top. Checkpoint, our own delivery console, is included in the engagement, not sold as a separate SaaS line item — and it stays in your tenant, and stays yours, even if you never engage us again. We scope honestly so there are no surprises.

Can we get multiple certifications at once?

Yes — this is one of our core strengths. We map a single set of controls across ISO 27001, SOC 2, Essential Eight, and ISO 42001 simultaneously, so you avoid duplicated effort and cost.
