Synthetic assessment example

Can an MSP with remote staff and incomplete Ofcom controls become a BT reseller?

A synthetic BT reseller readiness example showing how incomplete regulated-sales procedures affect an otherwise prepared MSP.

This is a controlled, synthetic example. It contains no applicant or customer data. The result is preparation guidance, not Netify acceptance, BT approval or permission to trade.

  • An Anti-Bribery and Corruption policy is available.
