Disciplines that define your resilience A modular approach to building your CPS 230 Compliance program.

CPS 230 is a prudential standard introduced by APRA to strengthen the operational resilience of financial services institutions in Australia. It requires organisations to establish frameworks that manage operational risks, ensure continuity of critical operations, and maintain third-party arrangements. Achieving CPS 230 compliance involves detailed risk assessments, business continuity planning, scenario testing, and board-level oversight. It applies to banks, insurers, and superannuation trustees, ensuring they can withstand and recover from disruptions that could impact the broader financial system. Fixinc supports institutions in aligning with these regulatory requirements through tailored advisory and implementation programs.

We do CPS 230 Compliance the same way we run our own business; by simplifying processes, going back to first principles, and standardising programs so anyone at any time can adopt how you plan and respond to a disruption. When you engage in a CPS 230 Compliance program with our Advisors at Fixinc, you are embarking on a partnership that is a collaborative effort, held together by strong and reliable communication. We're not your usual consultancy, we're something different, fresh, modern with a focus on the people that make up Australian, New Zealand, and Malaysian business.

Frequently asked CPS 230 Compliance questions

We start with an initial consultation to understand your needs and objectives through a 45-minute discovery call. This is followed by a digital proposal outlining recommended services, approach, timeframes, and investment required. We can then develop a detailed project plan based on agreed priorities. Once signed, an hours' engagement meeting is conducted within a 4 week window, and then the program begins.

We use a combination of engagement strategies, including stakeholder workshops, training sessions, communication campaigns, and practical exercises to build awareness and capability across all levels of the organisation. At a more general level, we build relationships with key members of your team through email campaigns, one on one meetings, and even connecting over LinkedIn. This builds trust and typically uncovers issues or ideas from more introverted colleagues.

Yes, and in fact, it is our core service offering outcome. At Fixinc, we're seeking to build lifelong partnerships with individuals and organisations. This does two things: it allows us to pore ourselves into the very fabric of your organisation and threat landscape, build relationships where we are always available to support you, and hold ourselves accountable to ensure your resilience capability is continuously growing.

First and foremost, it is the simplicity of our programs. Many organisations and professionals are led to believe that the "threat landscape is evolving at an unprecedented rate", and whilst there is no legitimate data to support this claim, it only creates fear through marketing. We believe that resilience can be a simple, modern skill developed through building a culture of resilience, and removing the noise of bulky plans and poor technology.

Implementation timeframes vary based on organisation size and complexity, typically ranging from 6-9 months. We provide a detailed project plan with milestones and can phase implementation to address priority areas first. Our team are considered industry experts in project management and implementation. Typically, the only delay are stakeholders from your organisation. Our quickest program rollout was 4.5 weeks.

Fixinc tailors programs based on industry-specific risks, regulatory requirements, and your business goals through detailed assessments and expert consultations. Utilising hundreds of millions of threat intelligence data sets through our technology partnerships, we're able to create tailored programs for each organisation in any industry.

Initially, we need to understand your current resilience capabilities, regulatory obligations, key risks, and strategic objectives. We'll provide a detailed information request once we agree on the scope of engagement via our client portal.

Our pricing is based on the scope of services required, organisation size, and complexity of requirements. All activities start from a base investment that we can share with you. We provide detailed proposals with clear deliverables and can structure engagements to align with your budget constraints. Typically, our client base has an annual business continuity budget of $45,000 or an entire resilience program of between 55 and $100,000.

Our comprehensive suite of services helps organisations prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptions through integrated approaches to emergency management, crisis management, IT disaster recovery, and business continuity planning. We align these with international standards and local regulatory requirements. However, at its core our programs and support gets into the heart of your culture and continuously identifies ways to simplify how you plan and respond to threats. People are busy, they don't have time to attend multiple, day long training. We make it simple.

Our team focus heavily on streamlined project management processes. We utilise our own technology to create implementation plans that make every step seamless. External factors (like getting your team involved with meetings) may impact time, but we have techniques to speed this up. Typically, a single program can take between 5 weeks and 3 months.

While ROI varies, organisations typically see benefits through reduced impact of disruptions, improved stakeholder confidence, competitive advantage, and reduced insurance premiums. We can provide case studies demonstrating value realisation.

We specialise in serving medium to large-sized organisations across New Zealand, Australia, and Malaysia (the Oceania and ASEAN regions), in both public and private sectors. Our clients include financial institutions, government agencies, healthcare providers, and major corporations. You can see a list of all our industries serviced here.

We offer specialised consulting services to help organisations meet APRA's CPS 230 requirements, including risk assessment of third and fourth party suppliers, operational resilience framework development, and implementation support. We ensure alignment with regulatory obligations so you can remain confident in this valuable but disruptive regulation.

In most cases, you can expect programs to start from $10,000 AUD. However, reviews are as little as a few thousand. After we establish a scope of work and your requirements, we can provide you an initial quote within the same day of enquiry to pinpoint a more appropriate fee. We believe in long-term partnerships at Fixinc, so if budgets are a restraint, we can work with you.

Still have questions?

Over a no-obligation call, we will walk you through how are tools work for you to determine if they're right for you.
