Manufacturing & FMCG GRC, built for every site

One platform for NIS2, ISO 27001:2022 and supplier risk at every site, whatever the size of your compliance team.

Supply chains are complex. Your GRC programme should match.

Manufacturing and FMCG organisations face some of the most demanding supply chain risk and compliance obligations in the market. SureCloud is GRC software for manufacturing companies, built to manage those obligations across every site, supplier and framework. IDC's June 2026 Market Note headlines Gracie AI as “The Industry's First Cross-Domain Agentic Platform”.

Manufacturing GRC Software

NIS2 has put manufacturing in scope. Supply chain risk is no longer optional.

NIS 2 Certification for FMCG

NIS 2

 NIS2, the EU's updated network and information security directive, now covers medium and large manufacturers in sectors such as medical devices, electronics, machinery, vehicles, chemicals and industrial food production, where they carry out activities in the EU. That means formal obligations around cybersecurity risk management, supplier due diligence, incident reporting and operational resilience, and management bodies can be held liable. Maximum fines are at least €7M or 1.4% of worldwide turnover for important entities and €10M or 2% for essential entities such as large pharmaceutical manufacturers, whichever is higher in each case (Article 34 of NIS2). The European Commission's NIS2 overview and our NIS2 guide set out the scope.

Multi-site Operational Resilience

For multi-site operations with complex, international supply chains, compliance runs as an operational programme: controls, evidence and incidents for every plant sit in one place, with documentation as an output. 

Built for lean compliance teams

Compliance in manufacturing often sits with a small team, and they're responsible for every site, supplier and framework. Gracie AI, SureCloud's virtual GRC team, performs the repetitive activities that usually need extra headcount, such as creating records, checking evidence and drafting remediation suggestions.

AI operates the role. Humans lead the programme. Gracie AI Agents with Personas and Skills work within each user's permissions, log every action and keep your team in the approval loop, so your small team stays in control of the work.

Gracie AI is available on every plan, with advanced capabilities on Automate and Orchestrate. See how it works day to day in GRC for compliance managers, or find out more about Gracie AI.

From compliance documentation to compliance evidence.

Multi-site compliance:

 Manage compliance across business units, regions, and legal entities in one platform. Report separately by site. Govern centrally.
img-vert-fmcg-slider-002 (1)

Supply chain risk at scale:

Centralise your vendor library, automate assessments, tier suppliers by risk, and monitor continuously. Built for high-volume, geographically dispersed supply chains. See our third-party risk management software, the due diligence guide on gathering third-party information and what a supply chain attack costs.

OT/IoT risk management:

Operational technology and IoT risk sits alongside IT and cyber risk in one connected register. No separate tool. No blind spot.

Your factory floor may run devices IT never signed off and AI tools nobody logged. Recording them in the same register can put each exposure in front of an owner early. Read more on third-party operational risk.

NIS2-aligned controls:

Pre-built control mapping to NIS2. Evidence collected automatically. Audit-ready reporting. See NIS2 compliance software. 
img-vert-fmcg-slider-005

Incident management:

Mandatory NIS2 incident reporting, managed within the same platform as your risk and compliance programme.

SureCloud supports NIS2, ISO 27001:2022, PCI DSS and GDPR on one platform. Map a control once and it evidences each framework, whether you're working through enterprise ISMS design for ISO 27001 or UK GDPR compliance.

Common Questions from Manufacturing and FMCG Teams

How long does it take to roll out GRC across multiple manufacturing sites?

QuickStart, SureCloud's structured implementation, usually takes about four weeks at the pace you set, and Assure can go live as fast as one week. Timing depends on your site count and what you've already standardised across sites. Gracie AI drafts the configuration from a plain-English description, and your admins approve it. See how Gracie AI configures compliance in minutes. 

How do you evaluate a GRC platform for a multi-site manufacturing operation?

Check four things: central governance with separate reporting by site, NIS2 and ISO 27001 coverage, visibility of supplier risk beyond your own controls, and a fit for the team you have. Ask each vendor to show your own site structure working, because that's where multi-site tools differ. Our guide to vetting NIS2 compliance software lists the questions to ask. 

Do we need a large compliance team to run SureCloud across our sites?

 A small team can run it, even where one person owns compliance, risk and supplier assurance together. Gracie AI performs repetitive activities, and your team reviews what it's produced. Assure is a pre-built compliance toolkit for teams without dedicated GRC resource, while supplier risk management is available on Automate and Orchestrate, which include unlimited named users. 

Is SureCloud a good fit for manufacturing and FMCG risk and compliance?

 Yes. SureCloud manages multi-site compliance, supply chain risk and OT and IoT risk in one platform, with central governance and site-level reporting. NIS2 controls come pre-mapped, and ISO 27001, PCI DSS and GDPR run alongside. Connected tools feed evidence to controls automatically (broadest on Orchestrate), so you're walking into an audit with current records. 

How is SureCloud priced for manufacturing and FMCG firms?

Pricing follows your requirements, including your team size, existing tools and compliance objectives. Automate and Orchestrate include unlimited named users, and Assure includes 10. Request pricing and the team will send the pricing guide, then scope a plan to your operation. 

Does SureCloud cover GDPR as well as NIS2 and ISO 27001 for manufacturing and FMCG firms?

 Yes. SureCloud supports NIS2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS and GDPR on one platform, so a multi-framework manufacturer maps each control once and evidences it across frameworks. Data Privacy Management, an add-on on Automate and Orchestrate, handles DPIAs and processing records, with DSARs on Orchestrate. Our UK GDPR compliance software page sets out what's covered for the UK regime. 

What does a vendor risk manager need to know about NIS2 in manufacturing and FMCG?

 NIS2 requires supply chain security measures covering your relationships with direct suppliers and service providers (Article 21(2)(d) of NIS2). Assess suppliers against a consistent set of questions, so you've got current evidence for each one. Vendor tiering sits on Orchestrate. Our GRC platform for vendor risk managers shows how this works day to day. 

What does good manufacturing and FMCG risk and compliance look like under NIS2?

 Management approves and oversees the cybersecurity measures, spanning risk analysis, incident handling, business continuity and supply chain security. Significant incidents need an early warning within 24 hours of awareness, a notification within 72 hours and a final report one month after that notification. Good looks like a named owner and evidence for every measure, ready for a regulator to inspect.
