There has been a renewed focus on corporate governance in the light of several high-profile cases in which large companies failed to place proper controls to monitor stakeholder activities. These incidents have led to heightened regulatory oversight in all business aspects, and an increasing demand for the accountability of the people involved. If companies are not careful about preventing occurrences of fraud, they could end up inviting severe regulatory penalties, while also running the risk of irreparably damaging their brand.
The client is positioned in a highly competitive space that requires companies to rapidly create new brands and products, and expand their distribution networks to stay ahead of the curve. It is critical for Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) initiatives to keep pace with this rapid business expansion.
The client's goal was to strengthen governance, and consolidate risk management and compliance on a unified platform to ensure compliance with local and international laws, financial reporting regulations, and operational policies.
The client selected MetricStream to implement a solution that would help in complying with all applicable regulations, managing associated risks, and adhering to strict corporate governance standards while pursuing an aggressive growth path.
MetricStream has a strong track record in helping large global brands successfully manage risk and corporate governance challenges. Based on this experience, MetricStream was selected to help the client implement a GRC solution that would conquer existing challenges, and scale up to ensure that all future requirements were met.
MetricStream GRC Solution provides the client the following capabilities:
Internal Audit Management
MetricStream's next generation internal audit management solution helps the client to not only manage regular audit processes, but also enable effective risk and compliance management. Through a single and comprehensive framework, the solution helps the client manage multiple internal audit activities. It also provides the capability to leverage risk metrics to present critical business intelligence for defining and planning the company's audit strategy. Using the solution, the client is able to manage the complete internal audit lifecycle – beginning with audit planning and scheduling, and extending to the development of standard audit plans and checklists, field data collection, the development of audit reports and recommendations, the review of audit recommendations by auditees and the management, and the implementation of audit recommendations.
SOX Compliance and Internal Controls Management
The client is required to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) requirements, as per the directions of its parent company in the US. With the MetricStream solution, the client is able to assess, design, and improve internal controls, monitor compliance processes at a granular level, and provide sufficient evidence to external and internal auditors that controls have been tested to their satisfaction. The solution helps streamline multiple surveys and certification procedures to ensure the strength of the controls placed, and adherence to policies. It also provides a strong built-in library of control tests and embedded best practices that help define control hierarchies. In addition, the solution helps integrate business processes with regulatory notifications and industry alerts.
