Consulting on a Diet

Welcome to a new era of lean, outcome-driven GRC consulting. We've stripped away the bloat to deliver measurable governance, risk, and compliance results without the overhead.

The Problem: Consulting Bloat

PowerPoint Purgatory

Decks multiply exponentially whilst junior analysts 'find their feet' on your invoice. Six-month engagements drag well past Christmas, delivering questionable value.

Governance & Cyber Chaos

Regulatory requirements expand relentlessly, cyber threats evolve daily, and operational inefficiencies drain resources—issues keeping executives awake at night.

Inflated Costs

Traditional consulting models result in indefinitely extended project timelines and mysteriously expanding budgets, with no corresponding increase in value.

Our Solution: Lean GRC Consulting

CMX is a joint initiative between Next Practice Management and Cyber Matters, created to transform how governance, risk and compliance services are delivered.

40%

Cost Reduction

Early adopters report savings of up to 40% compared to traditional day-rate engagements.

100%

Knowledge Transfer

We continuously transfer skills and expertise, leaving your organisation stronger than we found it.

0

Bloat

We've eliminated unnecessary processes, meetings and deliverables to focus purely on outcomes.

Our Approach

Price for Outcomes

We charge for results, not time. You'll know exactly what you're getting and how much it will cost—no surprises.

Transfer Knowledge

We don't hoard expertise. Throughout our engagement, we'll equip your team with the skills to maintain and build upon our work.

Leave You Stronger

Our success is measured by your continued success after we leave. We build sustainable capabilities, not dependencies.

If this approach sounds refreshing, you're our kind of people.
