WHO WE HELP
We work with organisations that need to certify, fix a gap, or respond to a buyer requirement — and need it done correctly.
Most organisations come to Systemizer because something has changed. A client has asked for Cyber Essentials. A tender requires it. An NHS buyer wants evidence of controls. A prime contractor has sent a supplier questionnaire. Whatever the trigger, we start from the same place: understanding your situation, your environment, and your deadline — and telling you honestly what needs to happen next.
SEGMENTS WE SERVE
Find your organisation type.
Government & Public Sector Suppliers
Organisations bidding for public contracts where Cyber Essentials or CE Plus is required under PPN 014 — including central government, executive agencies, and NHS bodies.
Professional Services Firms
Law firms, accountancy practices, financial services businesses, and consultancies responding to client contractual requirements, regulatory expectations, or insurance conditions.
Healthcare & NHS Supply Chain
Healthcare suppliers, health tech businesses, and NHS supply chain organisations facing PPN 014 requirements, DSPT alignment requests, or NHS procurement conditions.
SMEs & Growing Businesses
Smaller organisations certifying for the first time — typically in response to a client request, a tender requirement, a cyber insurance renewal, or a security incident.
Technology & Digital Suppliers
SaaS businesses, MSPs, and digital agencies onboarding enterprise clients, joining procurement frameworks like G-Cloud, or responding to supplier security questionnaires.
Defence & MOD Supply Chain
Defence contractors and subcontractors at any supply chain tier where DEFCON 658 applies — including organisations supplying to MOD prime contractors.
Construction, Engineering & Facilities
Construction, engineering, and facilities suppliers responding to public sector frameworks, main contractor requirements, or infrastructure buyer assurance requests.
Findings & Remediation
Organisations with failed assessments, vulnerability scan findings, pen test results, or audit gaps that need practical remediation support.
Organisations that have failed a Cyber Essentials assessment, received a vulnerability scan or pen test report without remediation support, or whose certificate has lapsed — we work with all of these. Our Resources guides cover each of these situations in detail.
MOST COMMON TRIGGERS
Most organisations come to us because one of these things has happened.
A client has asked for it
A customer or partner has made Cyber Essentials a condition of contract — often with a renewal deadline attached.
A tender requires it
A public sector or enterprise procurement lists Cyber Essentials as mandatory. Without it, the bid will not be evaluated on its merits.
An NHS or public sector buyer requires it
PPN 014 applies to NHS bodies and central government departments. Suppliers in scope need Cyber Essentials or CE Plus before contract award.
A prime contractor has asked for it
Defence and enterprise prime contractors are flowing cyber requirements down to subcontractors at every tier of the supply chain.
An assessment has failed or lapsed
A previous attempt did not go to plan, or the certificate has expired and the environment has changed since the last assessment.
A scan or pen test found gaps
A vulnerability report or penetration test has produced findings with no clear remediation path. The gaps need to be identified, prioritised, and closed.
NOT SURE WHICH APPLIES TO YOU?
Start with a conversation.
Our initial consultation is a working call — typically 30 minutes — in which we understand your situation, your deadline, and what needs to happen next. You will leave with a clear picture of what is required and what it will cost.
