BIG Commercial Partners

Build stronger, more senior propositions with BIG

The Business Integrated Governance Community Interest Company (BIG CIC) provides an integrated approach to governance, strategy, and delivery, grounded in a publicly available Body of Knowledge (BoK) developed by a broad practitioner community.

BIG brings together purpose, strategy, portfolio direction, delivery, governance, and assurance into a single, coherent model. That creates practical opportunities for organisations to improve how they decide, prioritise, and execute – not just how they plan.

If you are here – you get that, and you want to leverage it – but maybe you’re not quite sure how?

By becoming a BIG Commercial Partner, your organisation can use the BIG BoK to strengthen and extend your training, consulting, and technology offerings, particularly in board-level and enterprise-wide engagements.

Why Partner with BIG CIC?

Differentiate your propositions
Position your services around integrated governance rather than isolated disciplines. BIG gives you a credible, joined-up narrative that resonates with senior leaders responsible for outcomes, not frameworks.

Compete where others struggle
BIG helps clients tackle problems many competitors cannot address well – strategy execution, balancing BAU with transformation, portfolio coherence, and accountability across complex organisations.

Create new and extended revenue streams
Offer BIG-aligned training, consulting, and solutions to existing and new clients, supported by transparent partner pricing and a lightweight commercial model designed for mutual benefit.

Accelerate your start with BIG
BIG CIC can connect you with experienced Associates to help shape messaging, define propositions, develop materials, and test appetite with your current client base.

What Commercial Partners gain

A role in a growing movement
Collaborate with practitioners and organisations shaping the future of governance and strategy execution, and position your brand as a credible voice in business transformation.

Access to proven content and assets
Use a mature, practitioner-led Body of Knowledge, informed by contributions from over 100 participants, to enhance your own offerings.

Credibility through association
Demonstrate alignment with a certified social enterprise and a recognised professional body for integrated governance.

Practical enablement, not just theory
Access and distribute the BIG BoK, presentation materials, and consulting frameworks as part of your client work.

Visibility and reach
Leverage BIG CIC marketing channels, partner listings, and thought leadership activity to support awareness, credibility, and lead development.

Professional development and community
Give your people access to the BIG LinkedIn Group, YouTube channel, and community forum to broaden perspective, build networks, and stay connected to emerging practice.

Which partner type is right for you?

BIG CIC works with 2 partner types based on the level of credential a partner has achieved:

Partner (Associate level)
This route is suitable if you want to start using BIG concepts, content, and credentials in training or consulting, and have at least one representative who has passed the BIG Associate Exam. It allows you to build and test BIG-aligned propositions with client support from the CIC, while keeping the entry point lightweight.

Professional Partner (Professional level)
This route is intended for organisations delivering more senior, board-level or enterprise-wide work. Professional Partners must have at least one named trainer or consultant who has passed the BIG Professional Exam. This signals deeper capability and experience in applying integrated governance in complex, real-world situations.

Both partner types operate under the same commercial and intellectual property terms. The difference is simply the level of credential held and the depth of work you are positioning yourself to deliver.
