Technology Audit in Cambridge
A structured review of everything a Cambridge business runs — systems, licences, contracts, security posture and the people who hold the knowledge. Commissioned before an acquisition, after inheriting an estate, or when the honest answer to what do we actually have is that nobody knows.
Why this comes up
The problem
No single person can list the systems the business depends on. Licences are paid for staff who left, contracts renew unexamined, and critical knowledge sits with one person nobody has documented.
What you get
What we deliver
- A complete inventory of systems, licences, subscriptions and who owns each
- Contract and renewal positions, including notice periods and exit terms
- Security posture assessed at a level a board can act on
- Key person dependencies identified, since those are the least visible risk
- Costs consolidated, which usually reveals overlapping tools and dormant licences
- Findings ranked by risk and by recoverable cost rather than listed flat

Technology Audit in Cambridge — common questions
- What usually comes as the biggest surprise?
- Spend. Duplicate tools bought by different departments, licences for people who left years ago, and subscriptions renewing on a card nobody reviews. The recovered cost frequently exceeds the audit fee within the first year.
- Is this the same as a security audit?
- No, though it covers posture at a level that identifies whether a deeper security assessment is warranted. A dedicated penetration test or Cyber Essentials assessment goes considerably further on that specific question.
- We are acquiring a business. Is this the right work?
- For the technology view, yes — systems, licences, contracts and key person risk. Where the target's own software is the asset being bought, technical due diligence goes deeper into the code and the team.
- What do we get at the end?
- An inventory you keep and a ranked findings list, written so a non-technical director can act on it. Handing over a spreadsheet of systems without a judgement on what matters is not worth commissioning.
- Do you work with businesses across Cambridgeshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East of England, including Cambridge and the surrounding Cambridgeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Cambridge businesses do you usually work with?
- Deep-tech and biotech clients bring genuinely technical briefs, often involving data pipelines, instrumentation or research tooling. Beyond that we work across Technology, Life Sciences, Research, Higher Education and Biotech.
- Do you cover the areas around Cambridge?
- Yes — we work throughout East of England, including Norwich, Milton Keynes, London, Northampton. Cambridge is an urban area of roughly 150,000+, and we take on work across the wider Cambridgeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
