Privacy Management System

ISO/IEC 27701:2025 Implementation.

Extend privacy governance into an auditable management system with role-specific controls, processing evidence and continual improvement.

Business context

What this capability solves

Privacy Information Management System implementation and certification-readiness support aligned with the organization’s privacy roles and processing landscape.

EBP Integra delivery principle

Advice, controls, technology, governance, evidence and operating procedures are designed together so the capability can be sustained after implementation.

Deep-dive capabilities

Capability model

The service can be scoped as a focused engagement or combined into a broader enterprise programme.

Privacy Management Gap Assessment

Assess privacy governance, controller/processor roles, processing evidence and management-system readiness.

PIMS Scope & Roles

Define scope, privacy roles, interfaces and processing boundaries.

Privacy Risk & Controls

Integrate privacy risks, obligations, controls and evidence into the management system.

Operational Procedures

Align ROPA, rights, incidents, vendors, retention and privacy engineering with PIMS governance.

Internal Assurance

Support internal audit, corrective actions and management review.

Implementation

Phased delivery

Each phase produces decision-ready evidence and clear ownership for the next stage.

1. DiscoverConfirm scope, stakeholders, obligations, evidence, dependencies and risk drivers.

2. Assess & DesignAnalyze current state, define target controls and agree the implementation roadmap.

3. ImplementDeploy controls, documents, workflows, training and required technology/integration.

4. Assure & OperateValidate effectiveness, close residual gaps, hand over and establish recurring governance.
