ISR-GEM · IFR readiness support
Expert advisory and diagnostic
Our expert advisory services help football clubs assess their IFR licensing readiness, identify potential gaps and prioritise actions. Through independent review, evidence verification and clear board-level reporting, we provide practical insights to support informed decisions and strengthen governance.
Digital readiness platform
Our digital readiness platform helps football clubs assess their current position, track supporting evidence and monitor progress towards IFR licensing readiness through structured self-assessment and clear reporting.
Built around the regulator's framework
ISR-GEM is purpose-built around the IFR's licensing regime — the Mandatory Licence Conditions, financial plan, corporate governance statement, fan engagement and annual declaration requirements established under the Football Governance Act 2025.
Let's establish where your club stands.
A confidential first conversation can help you understand your options and decide what to do next.
Clear, independent and evidence-led
For smaller clubs, the challenge isn't necessarily knowing that compliance matters. It's finding the time, people and expertise to get everything together while still running the club. We provide a light-touch IFR compliance service designed specifically for smaller football clubs.
Getting started is straightforward:
