Gap assessment

Know exactly where you stand against a standard or law, and what it will take to close the gaps.

A gap assessment is the fastest way to replace guesswork with facts. We measure your current practices against every requirement of the standard or regulation you are pursuing and tell you plainly what is already in place, what needs work and what is missing.

The result is not a generic checklist. Each gap comes with a recommended fix, an owner, a priority and an estimate, so you can decide whether to close gaps internally, with our help, or in phases.

Gap assessments are also available as transition assessments for organisations moving to ISO 9001:2026, ISO 14001:2026 or ISO/IEC 27701:2025.

What you get

  • A clause-by-clause and control-by-control gap register
  • Risk-ranked priorities, not a flat list
  • Effort and timeline estimates you can budget against
  • An executive summary leadership can act on

  2. Document review

    Review existing policies, procedures and records.

  3. Interviews and walkthroughs

    Short sessions with process owners to see how work really happens.

  4. Gap report and roadmap

    A prioritised findings register and a realistic plan to close it.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a gap assessment take?
For a single standard and a single site, typically five to ten working days from kick-off to report, depending on size and availability of your team.
Can you assess several standards at once?
Yes. Combined assessments (for example ISO 27001 with SOC 2, or ISO 9001 with ISO 14001 and ISO 45001) save time because many requirements overlap.
