Selection method
How to read the estimate
The calculator is a planning tool. Real quotes still depend on scope, systems, criteria, and how much readiness work is left.
02Use the high end for complex or brand-sensitive audits
Multiple criteria, regulated buyers, complex infrastructure, and Big Four requirements push cost up.
03Add platform and internal labor
The audit fee is not the whole cost. Budget for GRC software, evidence owners, remediation, and optional testing.
