Implement ISO 27001 – Hybrid Approach
You Lead the Implementation. I Guide the Way.
The Best of Both Worlds
Want expert support without hiring a full-time consultant?
Hybrid Support is your perfect middle ground.
You stay in control of your ISO 27001 implementation—but with expert guidance, reviews, and milestone checkpoints to make sure you’re on track. Ideal for teams with internal capability who need structure, assurance, and momentum.
I’ll walk you through everything you need;
- Typical certification timeline: 6 – 8 weeks
- Includes full review & audit preparation support
- Optional: Audit attendance
Who It’s For
- SMEs with internal staff who can write or adapt policies
- Organisations with partial documentation or previous frameworks (e.g. NIST, CIS)
- Teams that want to reduce cost without increasing risk
- Those aiming for full certification or internal compliance

FAQs
Can I switch to full support if needed?
Yes, you can upgrade at any time.
Do I need prior ISO 27001 experience?
No—but having documentation or a framework like NIST in place helps. I’ll explain every clause and expectation as we go.
What’s the time commitment for our team?
Typically 3–7 internal working days, spread across 6–8 weeks. It is depends upon how deep you feel you need to go, and what’s right for you. This is very much a ‘rough estimate’ based on a smaller organisation with tight scope, and established practices.
Does it include all the document templates I need?
Yes. It includes my template pack for ISO 27001.
Can ISO 27001 really be done in under 8 weeks?
Yes—if you’re a smaller business ready to move quickly.
ISO 27001 is about putting a fit-for-purpose framework in place—not building gold-plated bureaucracy.
I help you:
– Focus on the essentials
– Tailor controls to what you already do
– Formalise and evidence your key processes
You don’t need perfection on day one—just a clear, working ISMS and a plan to follow it. If you’re ready to run fast, I’ll get you there.
