Why STEER
Understanding and managing compliance and integrity risks as an integral part of day-to-day business activities is essential to achieving operational and strategic objectives. At STEER, we believe that management systems are only effective when they are embedded in business processes, aligned with organizational culture, and evaluated by experienced professionals who understand both the standard and the business reality.
STEER is deliberately structured as a boutique firm, focused on quality, independence, and senior-level expertise. Our clients benefit from:
Recognized leadership in ISO 37001 and ISO 37301, led directly by Daniel Bleeker and Kerry Keating, whose combined experience includes working with Compliance, Investigations, Corporate Security, HR, Audit and Legal functions across multinational organizations.
Subject-matter expert audits, based on the principle that the true value of an ISO certification audit lies in it being conducted by professionals with deep, hands-on expertise in the relevant standard.
Integrated management system capability, enabling efficient and coherent audits across multiple ISO standards without diluting technical rigor.
Strict independence, as STEER conducts audits exclusively under accredited certification body authority and does not provide advisory or implementation services.
Global reach with consistent quality, supported by a network of senior, certified auditors operating under STEER’s direct governance and quality oversight.
By combining deep specialization in compliance and anti-bribery with disciplined use of external subject-matter experts for other ISO standards, STEER delivers audits that are credible, practical, and respected by Boards, executive management, regulators, and certification bodies worldwide.
What We Offer
Our services provide value beyond certification. STEER supports organizations globally with ISO management system audits conducted under the authority of accredited certification bodies, delivering independent assurance and strengthening cultures of integrity.
STEER’s core expertise is in Anti-Bribery Management Systems (ISO 37001) and Compliance Management Systems (ISO 37301), supported by decades of senior executive and operational experience. In addition, STEER offers audits for organizations operating integrated management systems that include other internationally recognized ISO standards, such as:
ISO 9001 – Quality Management Systems
ISO 14001 – Environmental Management Systems
ISO 27001 – Information Security Management Systems
ISO 27701 – Privacy Information Management Systems
ISO 42001 - Artificial Intelligence Management Systems
ISO 45001 – Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems
Many organizations manage risk, governance, and controls across multiple ISO standards within a single, integrated framework. STEER supports these organizations by delivering coordinated, efficient audits that respect the unique requirements of each standard while ensuring consistency across the overall management system.
Audits of ISO 37001 and ISO 37301 are led by STEER’s co-founders, Daniel Bleeker and Kerry Keating, who are recognized subject-matter experts in these standards. Audits of other ISO standards are conducted by certified external auditors with deep expertise in their specific discipline, operating under STEER’s governance, quality management, and oversight model. This ensures that every audit is performed by a qualified subject-matter expert, while maintaining a single point of accountability and consistent audit quality.
