DISP Consulting vs Software — Making the Right Choice

A direct comparison of traditional DISP consulting and technology-enabled compliance platforms covering cost, timeline, scalability, and risk. Traditional consulting costs $20,000–$100,000+ with a 6–18 month timeline and a 67% first-attempt rejection rate. Technology-enabled platforms like DISPulse and DISPath deliver structured workflows, automated tracking, and continuous monitoring at a fraction of the cost. The most effective approach for most Australian defence contractors is a hybrid model.
