What does a compliance assessment cost?

Updated: 2026-11

In short

The cost of a compliance assessment depends mainly on how many regulations actually need examining, in how many markets and entities you operate, the state of existing documentation and how deep the gap analysis should go. A short scoping turns this into a fixed scope.

A serious compliance assessment has no standard price, because companies are affected very differently. A Swiss SME without EU customers or AI needs a different assessment from a group with entities in three countries, connected products and consumer customers.

We therefore start with a short scoping and then state a fixed scope. The following factors determine it.

What drives the cost

Number of regulations

The more regulations are in question after a first review, the more applicability and gap checks are needed.

Markets and entities

Entities in Switzerland, Germany and Austria each bring their own implementing laws and authorities.

State of documentation

Existing, current documents shorten fact-finding; missing or outdated ones lengthen it.

Number of interviewees

Each additional business unit with its own systems and processes means further interviews.

Depth of the gap analysis

An overview at the level of duties is faster than an examination down to individual systems and contracts.

Implementation support

Support after the assessment is optional and agreed separately.

How we price

  1. 01

    Fixed-scope assessment

    After scoping, a fixed scope with clear results and timeline.

  2. 02

    Staged assessment

    First applicability across all regulations, then the gap analysis only for those that apply.

  3. 03

    Assessment plus support

    Assessment followed by implementation support over an agreed period.

We deliberately publish no online prices: every case differs. After a short first conversation you receive a binding fixed price or clear frame.

FAQ

Is the applicability check useful on its own?

Yes, as a first stage. It shows which regulations apply and creates the basis for all further decisions.

Is there a free starting point?

Our regulatory check on the website gives a first impression, and the initial conversation is free.

Do internal resources cost anything?

Yes, mainly time for interviews and documents. We keep this low with prepared questions.
