Partner programme

Sell it, deliver it,
or build on it.

Conscious is an assurance platform for organisations that answer to more than one regulator. Most of them reach it through a firm they already trust: the consultancy that runs their assessment, the integrator that connects their estate, the provider that holds the programme together between audits. This is how that firm works with us.

We are early, and we would rather have a small number of partners who can deliver than a page of logos. Every application is read by a person, and a straight no comes back faster than a maybe.

01 One programme, four ways in

One programme, four ways to work with us.

Pick the one that describes your firm. More than one is normal, and the application lets you say so.

Resellers and distributors

You sell into accounts you already hold. Conscious is licensed through you, deployed hosted or in the customer’s own cloud, and the account stays yours.

Consultancies and advisory firms

You run assessments, gap analyses and readiness work for clients. Deliver them in Conscious instead of a spreadsheet, and hand over a record with your findings, their evidence and a named owner against each gap.

Managed service providers

You hold the programme together between audits. Run each client in their own workspace, with the evidence collected on a schedule and the judgements still made by a named person on the client’s side.

Technology and integration partners

You run an identity service, a cloud platform, a service desk or a security product that holds evidence our customers need. We would rather read it from you directly than ask a person to export it every quarter.

02 What each side commits to

Plainly, both ways.

What you get

  • The platform, whole. Hosted by us, in your cloud or your client’s, or on an isolated network. All three run identical code, so a feature shown in a demo is present in the isolated install.
  • The catalogue. Control frameworks and privacy regimes held as data, each naming its instrument and the date it was last verified. Every mapping states whether it was transcribed from the authority’s own published correspondence or authored by us and dated.
  • A named person here. Not a portal queue. Questions are answered by the person who knows the answer, in writing.
  • Training before your first client sees it. We would rather spend the time up front than have a demonstration go badly in front of an account you have held for years.
  • The account you bring stays yours. A deal you register is recorded in writing, with a date, before any work begins.
  • Commercial terms agreed before the work. Discount, margin and the length of the arrangement are settled in the second conversation, against the scope the first one establishes. Nothing is left to be discovered at invoice.

What we ask

  • A person who owns the relationship. One name on your side who we can reach and who can reach us.
  • At least one trained practitioner before the first client is onboarded, so the first engagement is not also the first time anyone has opened the console.
  • Client work delivered in the platform. A programme that is exported to a spreadsheet after the first week loses the record that makes it defensible, and the client ends up where they started.
  • Honesty about fit. Tell us when Conscious is the wrong answer for a client. We will do the same for you, and neither of us loses anything by it.
  • Nothing said on our behalf that we would not say. Conscious holds no certification today and does not claim one; it is not fully automated, and a person accepts every judgement. Those lines matter more to us than a faster close.

03 From application to first client

Four steps, and you can stop after any of them.

  1. 01Apply

    The form below, a few minutes. A person reads it and answers either way.

  2. 02A conversation

    What your clients actually ask for, where they operate, and whether the catalogue covers it. This is where we say if the fit is wrong.

  3. 03One client, end to end

    A single framework that matters, taken to a signed assessment with its evidence attached. You see the platform under real work before anything is committed.

  4. 04Terms

    The commercial arrangement, agreed against the scope the first three steps established.

04 For partners already working with us

The partner portal.

Register the accounts you are working on, and see what we said back. The date a registration is recorded is the date it runs from, which is the whole reason to do it early.

Register a deal

Six fields. It is recorded against your firm with the date, and held for a stated period. A customer another partner already holds is refused at the point you enter it, with the date they registered, rather than discovered at the end of a sales cycle.

No password to lose

Sign in with a link sent to the address on your approved application. Accounts are opened by hand once an application is accepted, so there is nothing to register for and no list of our partners to be found by guessing.

Sign in to the portal Training and collateral will be added here as they are ready.

04 Apply

Tell us about your firm.

Six fields. Enough to route it to the right person and make the first conversation a useful one; the rest is what the conversation is for.

Pick the closest. If more than one applies, say so below.
