Established ISO & Cybersecurity Audit Firm – 23-Year Brand, $118K SDE
Founded in 2002, this information security and compliance consulting firm has built an exceptional reputation over 23 years specializing in ISO internal audits, readiness assessments, and cybersecurity advisory services. Operating as a home-based, relocatable business in Plymouth, MN, the company generates $362K in annual revenue with $118K in seller's discretionary earnings.
Business Highlights:
- 23-year established brand with 100% client success rate on first-time certification audits
- Experienced team of 12 contractors delivering high-touch, senior-level consulting
- Strong reputation in regulated industries including healthcare and telecommunications
- Process-driven service delivery aligned to ISO frameworks
- Home-based operation with flexible contractor model minimizing overhead
The company differentiates itself in the expanding ISO compliance and cybersecurity market through personalized engagements and deep expertise, positioning between high-fee large consulting firms and low-credibility template providers. The business operates in a growth market driven by increasing regulatory requirements and heightened cyber risk awareness.
Growth Opportunities:
- Convert audit-only clients to recurring annual compliance retainers
- Expand into ISO readiness and implementation services
- Cross-sell CMMC, SOC II, privacy, and tabletop exercise offerings
- Increase business development and sales focus
- Strategic integration opportunities for cybersecurity or IT services platforms
The founder-led business offers structured transition support up to six months to ensure continuity of client relationships and service quality. The sale is opportunity-driven as the owner focuses on another venture, not distress-motivated.
This turnkey operation presents an excellent entry point or bolt-on acquisition in the high-demand compliance and cybersecurity consulting market, with established processes, experienced team, and clear growth pathways.

The company is not dependent on a physical office and is well-suited for remote or hybrid operations, reducing fixed overhead and improving scalability.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The company operates within the expanding ISO compliance and cybersecurity advisory market, driven by increasing regulatory requirements, customer security expectations, and heightened cyber risk awareness. Competition ranges from large consulting firms with high fees and limited personalization to low-cost template providers lacking depth and credibility. The company differentiates through senior-level expertise, customized engagements, and a long-standing reputation in regulated industries such as healthcare and telecommunications.
- Opportunities for Growth
- This business offers multiple clear avenues for growth. A buyer can convert audit-only clients into recurring annual compliance and internal audit retainers, expand upstream into ISO readiness and implementation services, and cross-sell CMMC, SOC II, privacy, and tabletop exercise offerings.
Additional upside exists through increased sales focus, and modest investment in business development. A strategic buyer may also realize synergies by integrating JBW Group’s audit capabilities into a broader cybersecurity or IT services platform.
