A SOC 2® allows us to stay competitive. We’re a pretty small data marketing company, but having the SOC 2® makes us more legitimate in the eyes of potential clients.

SOC 2® Process
From Readiness to Report
Our process for partnering with CPA firms on SOC 2® engagements ensures a seamless expertise for clients from the readiness phase through auditing and reporting. With Pratum leading the readiness portion and the CPA firm leading the examination, we help you hit milestones and receive a report on time with no surprises.
Readiness Assessment & Preparation
Duration: 2 - 4 Months
During this phase, we’ll clarify each stakeholder’s expectations for the process and set your company up to obtain your SOC 2® report with minimal distraction from day-to-day operations. Thorough planning now eliminates surprises during the exam period. From the first meeting, we focus on acting as part of your team, not an external consultant.
Exam
Duration: 6 - 12 Months
Expert project managers will guide you through a smooth exam process. A clear schedule will show you when to expect all testing objectives and selections. The auditor will follow professional standards for conducting a quality exam focused on collaboration and clear communication. Pratum provides audit support throughout to help you understand the auditor’s requests and provide the right information.
Report
Duration: 1 - 2 Months
This is where it all pays off: the SOC 2® report that helps your company retain key clients and win new ones. The auditor will provide a draft report, and Pratum will review it with you to identify any questions or concerns you have. With clear interaction among all parties, the auditor will issue a final report that’s ready for you to share with clients.
