I AM

Craig Antony Willetts​


I'm Craig Willetts, a compliance specialist with over 20 years of hands-on experience helping businesses across the UK and beyond achieve certification, win contracts, and build management systems that actually work in the real world.

I founded CAW Consultancy Business Solutions Ltd on a simple principle: compliance shouldn't be complicated, expensive, or slow. My approach strips away the jargon and delivers practical, plain-English solutions that give businesses a genuine competitive edge. I'm proud of my 100% audit pass rate across over 20 years and all major certification bodies, including UKAS — it's a track record I work hard to maintain every single day.

Throughout my career, I've provided compliance support across a wide range of industries: retail, security, hospitality, construction, cleaning, logistics, engineering, import and export, and manufacturing. That breadth of experience means I understand the unique pressures, risks, and regulatory demands that different businesses face — and I know how to build systems that fit the way you actually operate, not the other way around.

Over the years, I've built a group of specialist businesses under the CAW umbrella. CAW Digital delivers bespoke paperless management systems for a one-off cost with no subscriptions or ongoing fees. Screen My Staff provides BS 7858 screening and workplace wellbeing support, and the ISO Training Institute offers online ISO and compliance courses. In 2026 I also launched Compliance Master — a comprehensive compliance platform featuring dashboards, GPS tracking, incident management, automated reference checks, and AI integration.

Beyond ISO certification, my team and I support businesses with industry accreditations like CHAS, Constructionline, and Safe Contractor, employee screening to BS7858, tender and bid writing (with an 80% success rate), and a growing ISO training academy open to professionals at all levels.

I have worked with thousands of business to help them achive their goals — from small independent businesses to large global organisations such as Fedex and Sanctaury care — and I'm genuinely grateful that 80 to 97% of them choose to stay with me year on year. My mission remains the same: to make compliance a tool for growth, not a barrier to it.
