SureComply was founded by Michael Maher and Sean Bennett in 2015. They saw a growth in fragmented industries that are beset with both a mobile or transient workforce; as well as compliance or credentials that are regulated by either government or industry bodies.
Frequently these industries struggle to attract, engage and retain people due to the lack of support from enterprise software providers. Enterprise software are not designed to scale down and therefore cannot service fragmented industries.
Our vision is to build systems that connect people and organisations with opportunities across the world. Removing labels such as “first world’ or “third world” by providing the same mobile device based options for both the individual and the employer. Our flagship platform OnePassport is free to use by all people. Breaking down walls to opportunity.

Based in Melbourne, Michael leads the SureComply team which is split across three continents. Returning to the origins of SureComply, Michael also heads up the aged care and disability support services by the sister company, Aged Care Development Network (ACDN).
Michael is a social entrepreneur who uses his skills and experience in workforce management and technology to solve community challenges.

Sean Bennett
Sean is the co-founder and the first CTO of SureComply
Sean moves between San Francisco and New Zealand as the Co-Founder and CTO of digital asset management platform, Stronghold. Whilst founding SureComply, he also was the technology led at a company that built a blockchain protocol-agnostic accelerator platform that enabled developers, startups and corporates to learn, experiment, build and deploy solutions powered by blockchain.
Alongside the primary CTO role, Sean also holds advisory positions across multiple industries including financial services and aged care. With particular focus on emerging technologies such as blockchain, smart contracts and machine learning; business and systems analysis, readiness for scale; and solution architecture, API strategy and product extension.
SureComply believes in partnerships and not reinventing the wheel where possible. Therefore the company actively seeks out partners in a wide range of fields. From complementary technology providers to industry specific project partners.
In early 2016 SureComply formed a partnership with global elearning marketplace provider Qintil. In late 2016, SureComply formed a partnership with publicly listed identification, verification and credentialing company CV Check (ASX: CV1). In early 2017, SureComply partnered with the Foundation for Workforce Innovation to provide a national registration and national accreditation system for aged care workers for the Australian government.
From the launch of SureComply, both Sean and Michael planned on providing the SureComply platforms for selected organisations at a low cost or zero cost price point. Keeping to the original aims of the company to support people from all over the world to break down walls in order to access opportunities.
To achieve this aim, the OnePassport Foundation is in the process of being established in Australia. The Foundation will take applications from organisations around the world. Providing support where it can based on the Foundation’s support criteria. The criteria overview being organisations that:
- Of a Not For Profit (NFP) structure
- Without an underlying business or revenue generator beyond membership dues
- Whose aim is to develop people in fields such as leadership and social responsibility
