Partner program

Become an Aptioris Accredited Assurance Partner.

Aptioris implements the platform. You provide the independent assurance that makes the Adaptive Assurance Score something the outside world can rely on, and build a recurring practice doing it.

Why partner with Aptioris.

Recurring revenue from an assurance practice that only accredited partners can deliver.

Recurring revenue

Each customer starts with a one off Verification and continues with an annual Review, so your recurring revenue grows with every customer you keep.

Differentiated service

An evidence backed assurance offering that GRC, audit and strategy firms cannot replicate without the platform and the accreditation.

Accreditation moat

Aptioris licenses and quality controls the right to attest the evidence backed score, so the partner holds a defensible, trusted position.

Advisory pull through

The prioritised remediation list pulls through your own advisory and delivery work.

What partners deliver.

Verification and Review are the core accredited services, while advisory, implementation and managed assurance extend and strengthen the relationship with the client.

VerificationPrimary

A one off baseline and the first attestation at reasonable assurance.

ReviewPrimary

Recurring reattestation and a board ready trend analysis at limited assurance.

Advisory and remediation

Help customers lift the score against the prioritised findings.

Implementation

Accredited delivery partners configure and onboard the platform for customers.

Managed assurance

Run assurance as an ongoing managed service on behalf of the customer.

How the commercial model works.

Two revenue lines, kept separate. Aptioris is paid for the platform; partners are paid for assurance.

You charge for attestation

Verification, Review, advisory and managed assurance are contracted directly with the customer. You keep the full fee and Aptioris takes no commission.

Aptioris shares platform licensing

Aptioris licenses the platform to the customer and shares part of that licence fee with the partner who originates or supports the relationship.

Accreditation is a fixed fee

You pay to be trained, certified and licensed to use the methodology, toolkit, templates and the Accredited Assurance Partner mark. There is no charge on your service revenue.

What Aptioris provides.

Everything a partner needs to deliver and attest with confidence.
