You Know You Need Compliance.
You're Not Sure How to Build It.
Most companies at this stage have looked at Vanta or Drata. They know a GRC platform is the right foundation. What's harder to see is how to configure it correctly, which controls map to their specific environment, and how to build a program that holds up when an auditor reviews it. GRC Platform Buildout is a structured engagement where TCS stands up your compliance program on your GRC platform, configured to your target framework and ready for evidence collection from day one. No guesswork, no misconfigurations to untangle before your audit window opens.
Buying the platform is the easy part.
Vanta and Drata are powerful tools. But out of the box, they need to be configured to your environment: controls mapped, integrations connected, evidence workflows established, and ownership assigned across your team. A misconfigured platform will not fail your audit immediately, it will collect incomplete evidence quietly, until your auditor reviews what you have and flags what is missing.
As certified Vanta and Drata partners, TCS builds compliance programs on these platforms for companies targeting SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, CMMC/NIST 800-171, and more. The configuration is precise, the architecture maps to your audit requirements, and the handoff leaves your team with a program they understand and can operate.
