Compliance Cloud · Pricing

Three tiers. No per-user charges. No surprises.

Compliance Cloud is your ISO management system as a service: one private, UK-hosted portal where your policies, registers, evidence and audit trail live and stay current, built and backed by our experienced consultants. Every tier includes the full portal with unlimited users; what changes is how much of the running we do. With The Toolkit you drive a fully templated system yourselves. With The Quality Manager we stay on for internal audit, management review and quarterly upkeep, year after year. And with The Compliance Director we're hands-on in your system every month, with a dedicated consultant watching every clause between visits.

All prices are based on a single ISO standard. Additional standards share the same portal and can be added at any time. Each one adds £100 per month on The Quality Manager, or £150 per month on The Compliance Director.

The demo is the real portal with a worked example inside it, and three fields opens it. Every tier below includes it.

SELF-MANAGED

The Toolkit

Prepared
£299
per month
For clients who'll run it themselves
Less than one consultant day, a month. UK consultant day rates run £500 to £1,200. This is the platform your management system lives in, for less than the cheapest of those days.

The platform, templated and waiting for your system to move into it. Every register the standard asks for is already there, structured clause by clause, with document templates to work from wherever you have a gap. You upload what you already hold, migrate the rest across at your own pace, and the portal keeps it in order. This tier is yours to drive, and we are a call away.

The platform, ready to move into
  • Your own private portal, scoped to the standards you actually hold
  • Every register the standard asks for, already built and clause-indexed, waiting for your data. Risk, legal, suppliers, training, nonconformity and CAPA, documents, objectives.
  • Document templates for the manual, policies, procedures, scope statement and objectives, to work from wherever you have a gap
  • Upload and migrate what you already hold straight in, so nobody is asking you to start again
  • Document library ticked off as you migrate each piece, so you can see what is left
Yours to run, with the rails in place
  • Monthly compliance checklist with stamps and red flags, so nothing quietly slips a year
  • Evidence uploads on every record, so the audit trail builds as you work rather than the week before a visit
  • Every heat map and dashboard, so you can see the state of the system without asking anyone
  • Unlimited users and sites — UK-hosted, backed up, GDPR-compliant, no per-seat fees
  • Email support when you need a pointer
  • Step up to The Quality Manager whenever you want. Everything you have built carries over and nothing is re-done.

The platform, the structure and the templates. You move your system in and run it at your pace.

MOST POPULAR

The Quality Manager

Protected
from £799
per month
For clients who want it maintained for them
Around ten consultant days a year. Except it is not ten days spent in one panic. It is the audit, the review and the upkeep spread across twelve months, with the system staying yours.

Certification isn't a day you survive. It is a standard you are expected to maintain for three years, evidenced continuously and tested at every surveillance visit. Most nonconformities aren't raised because a business did something wrong. They are raised because nobody kept the paperwork breathing between audits. This is the tier where that stops being your problem.

  • Everything in The Toolkit, and then we stay.
Your compliance year, run for you
  • An annual end-to-end, full system audit, on site and in person. Every clause, every process, booked into month 10 so a surveillance visit never catches you cold.
  • Annual management review facilitated, with the agenda, inputs, minutes and outputs that satisfy Clause 9.3
  • Quarterly upkeep reviews of your registers and records, so they are current on any given day rather than rebuilt the week before an auditor arrives
  • Findings raised straight into your CAPA register. Corrective actions are managed to closure, then checked later to see they actually held.
Backed when it counts
  • The nonconformity guarantee — if your certification body raises a major nonconformity against a clause we maintain, we put it right at our cost and we are on the follow-up visit with you.
  • Certification-visit day support, with priority email and phone access in the run-up
  • Your ISO 9001:2026 transition included, with no separate fee and no upgrade to buy
  • A named consultant who knows your system, not a ticket queue

Your system stays audit-ready all year. The Quality Manager maintains it for you.

FULLY MANAGED

The Compliance Director

Guaranteed
from £1,799
per month
For clients who want us a part of it, every month
Less than half a quality manager’s salary. The UK average is £50,598 before employer NI and pension. And when they leave, the system leaves with them. This does not.

A consultant works inside your system every month. Between visits, Compliance Cloud keeps checking it against every clause in your scope, flagging weak, missing or ageing evidence before anyone outside your business sees it. You find out a record is thin in March, rather than in October with a man in a high-vis lanyard sitting in your meeting room.

  • Everything in The Quality Manager, and then a consultant on the inside.
A consultant inside your business
  • Monthly hands-on consultancy. We work in your system with you, every single month.
  • A dedicated consultant, the same person all year, contactable at the end of an email
  • Unlimited advisory access — nobody in your business hesitates to pick up the phone
  • Priority response when something urgent lands
Every clause, watched all year
  • Compliance Cloud runs continuously against every clause in your scope, all year, not sampled once
  • Weak, missing and ageing records flagged months before a visit, not found during one
  • Legal register maintained, with new legislation tracked in for you
  • An annual system health report you can put straight in front of your board
Handed over, not hunted for
  • The Audit Pack — your whole evidence file assembled and indexed clause by clause before every visit, ready to hand to the auditor on day one. No trawling, no “I’ll find that and send it over”, no fortnight of reconstruction.
  • Certification body liaison all year round. We deal with them so that you do not have to.
  • We sit the visit with you, and answer to the clauses we maintain

When the certification body arrives, nothing is being prepared. It is simply handed over.

Built and run by practising ISO consultants — not a software house guessing at compliance
Everything you build on The Toolkit carries straight up the tiers, and nothing is ever re-done
No per-user fees, no storage tiers, no surprise invoices. One written monthly figure.
Your data stays yours, with a full export whenever you ask and confirmed deletion if you leave

Additional standards £100–£150/month each

Add ISO 14001, 45001, 27001 and others to the same portal. Shared registers appear once and standard-specific registers switch on. Each additional standard adds £100/month on The Quality Manager or £150/month on The Compliance Director, reflecting the extra audit and review work it brings. AS9100 and ISO 13485 are quoted individually.

Onboarding & build from £500 one-off

We configure your portal, seed it from our framework and your existing documents, set your compliance-year start, and train your team. Most clients are ticking their first monthly checklist inside a fortnight.

Founding client places — onboarding and build free We're onboarding a limited number of founding clients with the one-off onboarding and build waived in full: your portal scoped, your manual, policies and procedures written, your registers seeded and your compliance year set, at no charge, in exchange for honest feedback and a testimonial when we've earned it. Monthly pricing is the standard rate.

Notice and termination

The agreement runs for twelve months and renews yearly. Either side can end it with three months’ written notice, and there is no exit fee.

Through the notice period the service carries on exactly as before: the checklist, the reviews and the audit all run as normal, so you are never paying for a system that has already been switched off. At the end of it we export everything to you, registers, evidence and history, and confirm deletion afterwards.

Simple annual agreement, with no per-user fees, no storage tiers and no surprise invoices. Your monthly figure is confirmed in writing at the walkthrough once standards are agreed. Your data is exportable to you at any time, and in full at the end of an engagement.
What you are comparing it against

The system is not the expensive part. Not having one is.

Every certified company already pays for quality management. In salary, in day rates, or in the fortnight before an audit. The only question is whether it is paid deliberately.

A quality manager

£50,598
UK average salary, before employer NI and pension

Even at two days a week and before on-costs, that is several times the monthly fee. And when they leave, the system leaves with them, because it lived in their head and their spreadsheets.

Consultancy by the day

£500–£1,200
typical UK consultant day rate

Bought reactively, at a day rate, to reconstruct a year of records in a fortnight. It works. The bill just lands in the same month as the audit, every year, for ever.

Certification itself

£1,200–£2,500
typical annual surveillance fee, 10–25 employees

Payable whether or not your system is in good order. A major nonconformity adds a follow-up visit at further cost, and puts your certificate, and the tenders that depend on it, in question.

The Quality Manager tier

£799
per month, around ten consultant days a year

Except it is not ten days spent in one panic. It is the portal, the annual internal audit, the management review and quarterly upkeep, spread across twelve months, with the system staying yours.

Salary figure: Indeed UK quality manager salaries, from 2,300+ reported salaries. Consultant day rates and surveillance fees are typical published UK ranges for SMEs; your certification body sets its own. Figures are for comparison, not a quotation.

The nonconformity guarantee

On The Quality Manager and The Compliance Director: if your certification body raises a major nonconformity against a clause we maintain for you, we put it right at our cost: root cause, corrective action, evidence pack and close-out. We are on the follow-up visit with you. You do not pay us twice to fix our own work.

Covers the registers, records and reviews inside your service tier. It does not cover things outside our hands: a process you changed without telling us, records your team did not complete, or a finding against an operational practice we do not run. We will tell you plainly which side of the line a finding falls on, in writing, before the follow-up visit.

The new edition

ISO 9001:2026 transition — included, not invoiced.

The 2026 edition was published on 16 September 2026 and every certificate must be transitioned by September 2029. On The Quality Manager and The Compliance Director your transition is part of the service you already pay for. There is no separate transition fee and no upgrade to buy. On The Toolkit the 2026 templates and the transition tracker land in your portal automatically as they are released.

Pricing questions

Fair questions about the money.

What's the commitment?
A simple annual agreement, renewing yearly, and you step between tiers at renewal, or as your needs change. Either side can end it with three months’ written notice, and there is no exit fee. Everything in the portal is your data and your intellectual property: documents, registers, records, evidence. If you leave we export the lot to you, registers, evidence and history, and confirm deletion afterwards. A client who stays because leaving would be painful is not a client, it is a hostage, and we would rather earn the renewal.
Why is there a build fee on top?
Because week one is real work, and pretending otherwise just hides it in the monthly price. The one-off covers scoping your standards, manual, policies and procedures to your actual operation, seeding your registers with your own data, and setting your compliance year running. From £500 depending on scope, and it is quoted in writing before anything starts.
What if we only need this for a few months, to get through an audit?
Compliance Cloud earns its keep in the eleven months when nobody is watching. That is when the records either get made or they do not. If you want a system that survives the audit rather than one that survives the auditor, this is the right shape.
We are not certified yet. Which tier?
The Quality Manager, almost always. Building a system from nothing is where the consultancy cost sits, and starting inside a portal that already holds the framework to everything the standard asks for means you are adapting rather than authoring. Then we run the internal audit and management review you need in place before a stage 2. You arrive with a system that has been running for months, not a folder finished last week.
What do additional standards cost?
Each standard beyond your first adds £100 per month on The Quality Manager, or £150 per month on The Compliance Director, because each extra standard brings its own registers, audit scope and review work. Everything lives in the same portal either way.
Are there really no per-user charges?
Really. Whether five or twenty-five people have access to the portal, the price is the same. We think charging per seat punishes exactly the behaviour a management system needs — the right people in it.
Is the internal audit really included?
On The Quality Manager and The Compliance Director, yes. A full clause 9.2 internal audit, end to end across your whole system, on site and in person, planned into month 10 of your compliance year so certification visits never catch you cold. It's the single most valuable thing we bundle.
What does onboarding actually involve?
We build your portal, load your policies and registers from our framework and your documents, set up your users, configure your compliance year, and run a training session with your team. From signed agreement to first ticked checklist is typically under a fortnight.
Can we start on The Toolkit and upgrade later?
Yes. Start at the level you feel suits you best. However, if you are new to management systems, we would recommend starting with The Quality Manager.

A 30-minute walkthrough, your standards and scope agreed, and a clear written monthly price. No chasing, no obligation.
