Onboarding and offboarding

• Getting started: We help users start using the service through a structured onboarding process designed to support rapid and confident adoption. At the start of the contract, we work with the client to understand their regulatory responsibilities, case types, workflows and user roles. We configure the service to reflect agreed processes, permissions and reporting requirements before go-live.; ; We provide comprehensive online documentation as part of the service. This explains how to access the platform, create and manage regulatory cases, record inspections, upload evidence, progress enforcement actions and run reports. Documentation is tailored for different user roles, including administrators, inspectors and case officers. It is available throughout the contract and updated as the service evolves.; ; We include remote onboarding and training sessions. These sessions introduce the platform, demonstrate key features and explain end-to-end regulatory case management processes. Administrator sessions focus on configuration, workflow management, user access and reporting. Operational sessions focus on daily use, task handling, decision recording and audit requirements.; ; Additional training sessions can be provided where required, for example when new regulatory regimes are introduced or new teams join. Ongoing support is available through the service desk to answer questions during early use and beyond.
• Service documentation: Yes
• Documentation formats: HTML
• End-of-contract data extraction: At the end of the contract, users extract their data through a controlled and well-defined exit process that ensures data ownership, security and continuity. We agree an exit plan with the client that confirms timescales, data scope, formats and secure delivery methods.; ; As part of the standard exit process, we provide a full export of all client data held within the service. This includes regulatory case records, inspection data, enforcement actions, decisions, documents, evidence files, audit logs, risk assessments and reports. Data is provided in open, commonly used formats suitable for migration to another system or secure archiving. Secure transfer methods are agreed with the client.; ; During the exit period, the service remains accessible so users can validate the exported data and confirm completeness and accuracy. We provide reasonable support to explain data structures and address any questions raised during validation.; ; Once the client confirms successful data extraction, we securely delete all remaining client data from our systems in line with our data retention and information security policies. We can provide written confirmation of deletion if required.; ; The standard contract price includes data export and secure deletion.
• End-of-contract process: At the end of the contract, we follow a clear and managed exit process to support a smooth transition for the client.

• API: Yes
• What users can and can't do using the API: The API can be used to integrate the service with other systems and automate regulatory case management activities. The API supports operational efficiency while maintaining control, security and auditability.; ; Through the API, users can set up parts of the service by creating regulatory cases, registering entities, submitting inspection records and recording compliance actions where enabled. The API allows authorised systems to submit data, create tasks, assign cases and retrieve reference information. User accounts and roles can also be managed through the API, subject to permissions.; ; Users can make ongoing changes through the API during live operation. This includes updating case details, recording inspection outcomes, adding notes, uploading or retrieving documents, progressing enforcement actions and extracting reporting data. All API actions require authentication and follow role-based access controls. Every action is logged to maintain a full audit trail.; ; There are clear limitations on API use. Users cannot change platform-level configuration, core workflow logic or security controls through the API. Validation rules, approval steps and audit logging cannot be bypassed. Users cannot modify system performance settings, availability controls or apply software updates. These responsibilities remain with the supplier.
• API documentation: Yes
• API documentation formats: HTML
• API sandbox or test environment: Yes
• Customisation available: Yes
• Description of customisation: Users can customise the service at the application level to match their regulatory processes and statutory duties, while core platform controls remain consistent and secure.; ; Clients can customise case types, inspection workflows, enforcement stages and decision outcomes. They can configure data fields, forms, templates and risk scoring models. Notifications, task rules, dashboards and reports can be tailored to reflect operational needs. User roles and permissions can be set to align with organisational responsibilities and separation of duties.Customisation is completed through the service administration interface. Authorised users make changes using guided configuration tools without code or infrastructure access. Changes can be tested and adjusted over time as policies or regulations change. Where enabled, some configuration and data updates can also be managed through the API, subject to permissions and validation rules.Who can customise is controlled through role-based access. Client-appointed administrators manage workflows, forms, permissions and reporting. Operational users can customise their own views, filters and dashboards within defined limits. Inspectors and case officers interact only with cases assigned to them. The supplier retains control of platform-level configuration, security controls and system updates to protect stability, performance and compliance.This approach provides flexibility for clients while maintaining auditability, security and consistent service operation.

Scaling

• Independence of resources: We guarantee independence of resources through a multi-tenant design with strong logical separation and capacity controls. Each client’s data and activity are isolated within the platform. We apply resource limits and monitor usage to prevent one client’s workload from affecting others. The platform is sized to handle peak demand and scaled as usage grows. We review capacity regularly and adjust it in advance of demand increases. This ensures consistent performance and availability for all users, regardless of activity levels elsewhere on the service.

Availability and resilience

• Guaranteed availability: 99.9%
• Approach to resilience: Our service is designed to protect client assets and remain available during faults, failures or unexpected events. We build resilience into the platform at every layer. Each hosted service runs in an isolated environment to limit the impact of failures and prevent cross-service issues. We use resource controls to stop individual workloads affecting others. The hosting platform uses redundant components. Compute, storage and network services are designed with no single point of failure. Storage uses replication to protect data integrity. Network paths are redundant to maintain connectivity if a component fails. We monitor platform health continuously and respond to alerts through defined incident processes. Backups are taken daily to protect against data loss, corruption or security incidents. We maintain a disaster recovery capability that allows services to be restored if a major incident occurs. Recovery processes are documented and tested. The datacentre environment supports resilience through physical and operational controls. Facilities use multiple power feeds, backup power generation, resilient cooling and diverse network connections. Physical access is restricted and monitored. We support resilience through operational practices. Changes are tested before release, rollback plans are defined. Maintenance is planned to avoid disruption where possible. Security patches are applied promptly.
• Outage reporting: We report outages through email alerts

Identity and authentication

• User authentication needed: Yes
• User authentication: Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
• Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels: We restrict access to management interfaces and support channels through role-based controls. Only authorised staff can access administrative systems. Each user has an individual account with least-privilege permissions. Strong authentication is required, and shared accounts are not used. Access rights are reviewed regularly and removed when roles change. All actions are logged and monitored. Support systems follow the same controls. Only trained staff can view or handle tickets, and they see only information needed to resolve the issue. These controls align with our ISO 27001:2022 and Cyber Essentials requirements.

• Information security policies and processes: We operate a formal set of information security policies aligned to ISO 27001:2022. These policies cover access control, asset management, secure operations, supplier management, incident handling, business continuity and data protection. Each policy has a defined owner and is reviewed on a scheduled basis or when risks change. Our reporting structure is clear. Overall responsibility for information security sits with senior management. Day-to-day oversight is handled by the security lead, who reports directly to senior management. The security lead manages risk assessments, policy compliance, incidents and audit activity. We ensure policies are followed through a combination of controls and checks. Staff receive security awareness training when they join and at regular intervals. Access to systems is role-based and reviewed periodically. Changes to systems follow an approved change process. Logs and monitoring support oversight of activity. Security incidents follow a defined process. Each incident is logged, investigated and closed with corrective actions where needed. Internal reviews/external audits provide assurance. Findings are tracked and addressed through improvement plans.
• Software Security Code of Practice: Yes

Operational security

• Configuration and change management standard: Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
• Configuration and change management approach: We manage configuration and change through defined processes. All service components are recorded in a central register. The register tracks ownership, version, status and lifecycle stage. We update it when components are added, changed or retired. This provides a clear audit trail. All changes follow a change process. Each change is logged, reviewed and approved before implementation. We assess security impact by checking access, data handling and exposure. Changes are tested in a staging environment. We apply approved changes during planned windows and record outcomes. This approach keeps the service controlled and secure.
• Vulnerability management type: Supplier-defined controls
• Vulnerability management approach: We follow a structured vulnerability management process. We monitor potential threats by reviewing vendor security advisories, trusted industry sources and vulnerability feeds. We assess each issue for relevance and impact on our services. Risks are prioritised based on severity and exposure. High-risk vulnerabilities are addressed first.; ; We deploy security patches promptly. Critical patches are applied as soon as practical, and within 24 hours where risk is high. Routine operating system and platform patches follow a regular update cycle. All fixes are tested before deployment and recorded. This process keeps the service current and reduces exposure to known threats.
• Protective monitoring type: Supplier-defined controls
• Protective monitoring approach: We use protective monitoring to detect and respond to potential security issues. We monitor system logs, access events and service behaviour for unusual patterns. Alerts are raised when thresholds or anomalies are detected. We review alerts to identify possible compromises. When a potential compromise is found, we follow our incident process. We isolate affected systems, review access and secure accounts if needed. We record actions and findings. We respond during support hours within defined SLA times and immediately for critical issues. High-risk incidents are prioritised to reduce impact and prevent further exposure.
• Incident management type: Supplier-defined controls
• Incident management approach: We follow a defined incident management process. We have pre-defined procedures for common events such as service outages, security alerts and performance issues. Users report incidents through our support ticketing system, with urgent issues escalated by phone during support hours. Each incident is logged, prioritised and assigned an owner. We track actions and resolution steps. After resolution, we provide an incident report to the user. The report outlines the cause, impact, actions taken and any follow-up measures. Incidents are reviewed to identify improvements and reduce repeat issues.
