Demonstrable SOX compliance with PolicyMatter
Sweeping changes in legislation mean SOX compliance is high on the agenda for enterprises today. Practising SOX compliance. Demonstrating SOX compliance. Being able to audit SOX compliance.
That’s why organisations have given priority to communicating and auditing the key policies that define their SOX compliance. But getting the systems in place that will allow them to do this is another matter. Staff handbooks, Intranets and induction courses are clunky, ineffective and resistant to change.
And proving SOX compliance makes a whole raft of demands:
- SOX compliance means ensuring staff read and agree to key policies
- SOX compliance also means making sure they understand what they’re agreeing to
- demonstrating SOX compliance demands clear reports and detailed audit trails on policy acceptance
- SOX compliance means integrating the solution with the existing business environment
- SOX compliance demands effective change management of key policies across their life-cycle
All of which combine to make SOX compliance a potentially massive administrative challenge for the compliance, governance and other teams tasked with delivering it.
Hence PolicyMatter - unique policy management software designed from the ground up to address the challenges of SOX compliance. With new accountabilities reaching across the whole enterprise, PolicyMatter presents policies to staff clearly and effectively, tests understanding where necessary, and automatically generates the kinds of records and audit trails needed to prove SOX compliance.
However, using PolicyMatter to demonstrate SOX compliance doesn’t mean a major increase in administrative resource. New directives or changes in SOX compliance regulations are easily managed with PolicyMatter, with new policy clauses highlighted and repeat policies automatically re-presented after a set period. So practising the rigorous approach needed for SOX compliance also benefits customers with additional business efficiencies and reduced costs.
