Consulting & Services

You are responsible for your clients’ data and processes without any of it belonging to you. At the same time, customers increasingly check your security and your ability to provide proof before awarding contracts and pass their own requirements on to you. Your most important capital are people who work between clients, locations and systems.

Third-party data
A disruption can affect not only you, but directly also clients and their information.
Proof before contract
In tenders, your security is checked in advance.
Passed-on requirements
Requirements of regulated customers are passed on to you through contracts and supply chains.
Mobile working
Your capital moves between locations, clients and countries.
What we encounter in this environment
„
Your business lives on people, knowledge and access to your clients’ information. The board meeting is about utilization, pipeline and closed deals. Security often becomes visible when a customer demands proof before awarding a contract – or when a disruption suddenly affects the mandate itself.
How we see it

That is not a contradiction, but a consequence of the business model: security does not compete with the service, it has to enable it. The earlier customer requirements, data protection and mandate work are brought together, the less they later become a bottleneck for sales and delivery.

Typical framework conditions

What makes this environment challenging.

Consulting and services are predominantly created in the environment of other companies: with their information, in their systems and often under their requirements. At the same time, pace and trust count. We encounter three patterns in this environment again and again.

Recurring patterns from our practice
01

Trust precedes the service

Clients grant access to information, systems and internal interrelationships before the actual service begins. This trust is thus itself part of the mandate.

02

Utilization is part of the business model

Value creation comes from available expertise. Whatever additionally ties up professionals therefore quickly competes with client work, sales and delivery.

03

Regulation comes through customers

Many requirements reach service providers through tenders and contracts. The customers’ security yardstick thus increasingly becomes their own.

Requirements that play a role
01ISO 27001
02SOC 2
03GDPR
04NIS2 via the supply chain

On an equal footing
