About

Expert GRC support, where and when needed

Blueprint GRC is part of a new generation of service providers, structured and resourced to meet the more practical demands of the most discerning firms in our sector.

Designed to deliver results

Blueprint GRC was designed from the clients’ perspective. Our team combines decades of expertise and practical industry experience with the knowledge gained from establishing, integrating and growing several of the industry’s most successful regulatory consultancies.

Our objective was to then channel that knowledge in a way most beneficial to our clients.  

Our design principles:

Listen – Then offer what clients need, not just what advisors want to sell.

Expertise – Make available to all of our clients, the very best-in-class resources.

Value-proposition – Focus billable time on practical and pragmatic results-driven solutions, not rule regurgitation and report-writing.

Utilise AI – Explore how AI can become a tool to assist, NOT replace, expert governance, risk and compliance resources.

Easy to do business with – Avoid distraction from overt and aggressive cross-selling, beta-testing RegTech prototypes and billing/admin frustrations.

Communicate – At every level, remain accessible and accountable. 

When Blueprint GRC provides a seconded individual to your team, they will already have a technical and management support infrastructure. This will provide continuity if our secondee is temporarily unavailable (e.g. holiday or illness), as well as equipping our secondee with a comprehensive level of technical support.

Our carefully selected team is pre-vetted, background checked and typically already known to our management team, often through many years working together. We ensure our team are fully equipped with the right expertise and receive on-going training to a consistent professional standard.

Director-led delivery

Our most senior personnel over-see projects, secondments and on-going support. All engagements are led by experienced individuals, not junior analysts. 

When it comes to in-sourcing temporary resources to your team, Blueprint GRC does not operate like a temp staff agency or a lone independent contractor. All client assignments are overseen by our experienced management with frequent interaction with the client, and fully supported and developed by our technical team.

We have combined some of the regulatory consulting industry’s most seasoned subject-matter experts with a hand-picked team of resources at all levels.

Technology neutral

Our team is agnostic to your in-house GRC technology, RegTech or AI – we will work with the technology you have, the same as any member of your compliance team would need to do. Naturally we use our own technology, but our client support is driven by expert individuals, through first-hand personal service, using technology as a tool.

We recognise the clearly evident and useful application of Generative AI in investment research, DDQ maintenance, big data analysis, presentations etc. We are examining the potential use of AI in the GRC control environment and how it can be utilised to optimise our clients’ valuable time, effort and budget.

Co-operative approach

Blueprint GRC’s appointment may be an alternative to your existing compliance consultants or our team will happily work alongside your incumbent provider.

Our appointment does not necessitate displacing your other advisers and we readily receive referrals from consultants and other service providers needing practical resources to implement advice for their clients.
