A Deep Fathom perspective Readiness or review

Where Readiness and Review Fit Your Practice

Your firm’s expertise can contribute wherever a supplier needs to establish, maintain, or examine its compliance position. Deep Fathom supports two service relationships: readiness work delivered through the platform and independent review of work prepared elsewhere.

Some firms will extend an existing readiness offering. Others will choose to focus on review. The platform and commercial relationship should reflect the work your firm wants to take on.

A Platform Relationship for Readiness Work

Deep Fathom takes defense suppliers through the compliance process, including the work behind their SPRS score, system security plan (SSP), plan of action and milestones (POA&M), and supporting evidence. AI-assisted review helps examine that work as it develops. The supplier remains responsible for its implementation and representations.

For your practice, that creates a platform on which to deliver preparation and ongoing compliance services across multiple clients. Your team brings its methodology and judgment to the work, including the decisions that need direct professional attention.

The relationship can continue as the client’s systems and obligations change. Updating its compliance position creates further work long after the initial deliverables. See how a readiness practice can use Deep Fathom.

A Review Relationship Around Prepared Work

Other suppliers want an independent view of work their own team or another provider has prepared. That work may include AI-assisted conclusions and deliverables developed with Deep Fathom.

Your review brings its own professional judgment. Its value depends on the questions examined, the work performed, and the conclusions your firm can support. A commercial relationship with Deep Fathom carries no expectation of a favorable finding.

We see an opportunity among suppliers that want additional scrutiny even when formal certification is not the immediate purchase. The choices available to suppliers explain where that demand may arise. Independent review has its agreed scope; formal certification remains a separate engagement under its applicable requirements.

Multiple Ways to Work Together

Use Deep Fathom to support your supplier readiness practice, provide independent review of work prepared elsewhere, or combine platform access with your existing services. We can structure the relationship around your clients, your delivery model, and the role your firm wants to take.
