When it fits
Organisations already using automated GRC software, AI-generated gap analyses, supplier risk platforms or continuous control-monitoring systems.
Why look closer
An automated result is only as reliable as its source data, coverage, assumptions and interpretation. A green status can mean a check passed, not that every applicable obligation is fulfilled.
What's included
- Tool purpose, configuration, evaluated requirements and exclusions
- Source-system coverage, freshness and data quality
- Traceability of controls to underlying evidence
- Targeted testing of selected high-impact control claims
- False confidence risks, limitations and management decisions
Can the software do all of this?
This service is not a blanket rejection of AI. Reliable automated checks are identified as strengths; unsupported conclusions, blind spots and unsuitable legal assumptions are flagged.
How it works
- Agree scope and prioritiesTogether we define what is reviewed and what is not.
- Review documents and available tool outputsWe evaluate documents and the available outputs of your tools.
- Validate selected control evidenceWe test the evidence for the most important controls in a targeted way.
- Discuss findings and practical next stepsWe discuss the findings and the practical next steps.
Your result
An independent findings memo separating validated claims, unsupported assumptions, limitations and priority actions.
Scope and limits
This is not legal certification or a guarantee of full compliance. Work is limited to the scope agreed with the client; access to systems, documents and staff is subject to your approval.
We are auditors and consultants, not lawyers. This service is not legal advice.
