Acceptance and competence boundary

Acceptance is subject to a documented review of privacy-management competence, capacity, processing context, relevant jurisdictions and any need for legal or specialist input. Mang Morgan does not provide legal advice; an engagement may require an approved specialist or be declined if the required competence or independence cannot be demonstrated.

Who it is for

A proportionate engagement with clear boundaries.

Organisations preparing a PIMS for independent assessment or seeking a clear baseline before implementation work continues.

Frequently asked questions

Does this service result in certification?

No. Mang Morgan does not issue ISO/IEC 27001 or ISO/IEC 27701 certificates or guarantee a certification outcome. A certification decision remains outside this engagement.

How is the scope confirmed?

We confirm the intended outcome, management-system boundary, criteria, locations, processing context, evidence, stakeholders, dates and limitations before issuing the final proposal.

Can the work use a client platform?

We can work in authorised client-owned GRC or privacy-management platforms where appropriate. Platform status helps organise evidence but does not replace testing or professional judgement, and platform experience does not imply partnership.

What happens if the scope changes?

Additional sites, products, processing activities, jurisdictions, frameworks, interviews, revisions, travel, remediation or accelerated dates are assessed through agreed change control.
