ANTWERP, Belgium — [11 July 2026] WITH BV (and its Birdseye.digital Contract and Vendor Management SaaS platform) today announced that it has successfully completed its SOC 2 Type I certification, marking an important milestone in the continued strengthening of its platform, operations and customer trust.
For Birdseye, this is more than a security milestone. It is a reflection of how the company believes modern that also Contract and Vendor Management should work: with clear ownership, strong governance, reliable data handling, structured follow-up and the operational discipline needed to support critical business relationships over time!
Birdseye is built to help organizations move beyond static contract storage and fragmented spreadsheet-based follow-up. As an end-to-end contract and vendor management platform, it supports the full lifecycle with centralized contract data, configurable activities, obligation and rights tracking, dashboards, risk management and collaboration across internal and external stakeholders. The platform is designed to accelerate contract management in practice, enable real-time updates and turn contract and relationship data into usable insight and action.
In many organizations, contracts and vendor relationships are still managed through a mix of spreadsheets, folders, email trails and siloed ownership. That makes it harder to maintain visibility, coordinate responsibilities, prove compliance, and steer the portfolio with confidence. Birdseye addresses that challenge by connecting contract data, process activities, risk, governance and reporting in one operational environment.
“As organizations face growing pressure around compliance, third-party oversight, operational resilience and auditability, trust in the underlying platform becomes essential,” said Dominique Kindt, CEO of WITH and Birdseye. “Our clients do not just need a place to store contracts. They need a solution that helps them govern obligations, manage vendor relationships, structure recurring reviews and support better reporting & decisions. Completing our SOC 2 Type I audit, with our partner BDO, reinforces that Birdseye is built with that level of discipline in mind.”
The audit, performed by BDO Belgium, covered key internal controls related to security, availability and confidentiality, providing customers with added assurance that WITH’s and Birdseye’s control environment is designed to protect sensitive information and support reliable operations. That foundation matters especially for organizations managing large contract portfolios, regulated vendor ecosystems and increasing demands linked to frameworks such as DORA, GDPR, NIS2, ESG and broader third-party risk expectations.
Birdseye combines software and practical contract management expertise. Through WITH, customers also benefit from hands-on experience across strategic sourcing, vendor management, contract lifecycle management, governance, regulatory translation and operational implementation. That combination is central to the Birdseye proposition: not software in isolation, but a platform shaped by real-world contract and vendor management practice across financial services, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, transport, airports, public-sector-style environments and other industries.
“Security and trust cannot be an after thought in Contract and Vendor Management,” said Koen Verckauteren, Product Director of Birdseye. “We built Birdseye to help organizations manage the reality that starts after signature: obligations, reviews, risks, actions, stakeholders, performance and governance. This milestone confirms that the discipline we help our clients create in their contract and vendor portfolio is also reflected in the way we run and secure our own platform.”
Birdseye remains committed to continuous improvement and is already preparing for the next step in its assurance journey with SOC 2 Type II.
Birdseye is an intelligent contract and vendor management platform that helps organizations gain practical control over their contracts, obligations, risks, activities and vendor or business relationships.

Backed by WITH’s hands-on expertise in strategic sourcing, vendor management, contract lifecycle management and regulatory implementation, Birdseye helps organizations strengthen control, improve compliance and drive better decisions across the full contract and vendor lifecycle.
