From Stalled Deals to ISO 27001 Ready in 16 Weeks

The Situation

A 20-person, owner-funded Communication Platform as a Service (CPaaS) company was hitting a wall. Enterprise prospects liked the product, but kept stalling at procurement. The reason was always the same: no ISO 27001 certification.

A competitor with a less feature-rich product was using their own certification to circle existing clients. Deals weren't being lost on features. They were being lost on trust.

Internally, senior engineers were spending several hours every week responding to security questionnaires, time pulled directly from building the product that made them competitive in the first place.

What They Needed

Not a consultant who'd hand over a stack of policies. They needed someone to own the problem, build the program, drive the execution, and get them audit-ready without pulling their team off the product.

They engaged Logic Weave's GRC as a Service to do exactly that.

What We Delivered

Drawing on 24+ years of experience across SaaS, FinTech and HealthTech, Logic Weave embedded as their fractional security leader and took full accountability for the path to ISO 27001 readiness. That meant building the management system, running the risk assessments, implementing controls, and preparing the team for audit — not just advising from the sidelines.

The Outcome

Procurement conversations that had previously stalled started moving forward. The sales cycle shortened. The engineering team reclaimed several hours every week, back to building product instead of answering questionnaires.

The competitor's compliance advantage disappeared overnight.

Why It Worked

Most scaling companies don't lack intent, they lack ownership. The missing piece is someone who takes accountability for execution, not just advice. Logic Weave filled that gap with hands-on fractional leadership and a clear path from intent to audit-ready.
