GRC FOR IT SERVICES & MSP

IT Services & MSP: Manage 10 Clients in Compliance with 1 GRC Platform

As an IT Services company or MSP, you manage compliance for multiple clients (ISO 27001, NIS2, GDPR). Discover how a multi-tenant GRC platform can reduce audit time by 3x and industrialize your services.

The IT Services/MSP challenge: managing compliance for multiple clients

If you're an IT Services company, MSP (Managed Service Provider), or cybersecurity consulting firm, you know the problem: your clients ask you to support their compliance (ISO 27001, NIS2, GDPR), but each client has:

  • Different frameworks: one client wants ISO 27001, another NIS2 + GDPR, a third HDS
  • Disparate tools: Excel, SharePoint, OneDrive, emails... impossible to consolidate
  • Non-standardized processes: you reinvent the wheel for each new client
  • Time-consuming audits: manual evidence collection, email reminders, double reporting

Result: your consultants spend 70% of their time on administrative tasks (collection, reminders, reporting) instead of high-value expertise. Your margin decreases, your teams are frustrated, and you can't scale.

The hidden cost of multi-client management without GRC

Concrete example: An IT Services company managing 10 clients without a GRC platform:

  • • 10 different Excel files → time waste, errors, no consolidation
  • • 50h/month manual evidence collection and email reminders
  • • Client audits: 8d per client Ă— 10 clients = 80 days/year lost billing
  • • Management reporting impossible: no overview of clients' posture

Case study: IT Services company 150 employees, 10 multi-framework clients

Before OwlCub

Context:

  • • InfoTech IT Services, 150 employees, Lyon
  • • 10 clients in managed services + cyber consulting
  • • Frameworks: ISO 27001 (6 clients), NIS2 (3), GDPR (all), HDS (1)
  • • Team: 1 full-time CISO + 3 part-time GRC consultants

Problems:

  • âś—10 different Excel files, no consolidation possible
  • âś—Total duplication: ISO 27001 treated 6 times independently
  • âś—Time-consuming audits: 8d per client = 80d/year immobilization
  • âś—Impossible reporting: management doesn't see global posture
  • âś—Consultant turnover: frustration with administrative tasks

Annual cost: €200K of time lost in administration (50h/month × 12 months × €350/d)

FAQ: Questions from IT Services and MSPs

Can I customize the platform with my IT Services logo?

Yes, white-label mode available. You can customize logo, colors, and domain (e.g., grc.youritservices.com). Your clients see your brand, not OwlCub. Option available from Business plan.

How does billing work: me or my clients?

Two models possible: (1) Global IT Services billing: you pay 1 invoice for all your clients and rebill as you want. (2) Per-end-client billing: OwlCub bills each client directly, you get a 30% commission. You choose.

How many clients can I manage on the platform?

Unlimited. OwlCub pricing for IT Services is degressive: €1050/month for 10 clients (€105/client), €1900/month for 25 clients (€76/client). More clients = lower unit cost. Contact us for quote 50+ clients.

What happens if a client leaves our IT Services company?

You decide. Either you delete their space (data deleted after 30d), or you transfer their space to an autonomous OwlCub account (client continues directly with OwlCub). Full PDF/Excel data export possible before transfer.
