Sarbanes-Oxley

Financial control certification and corporate governance regulations like SOX are now well-established. Your company has data and procedures that have worked to keep you compliant. Wouldn’t you like to get more for all of that effort?

• Leverage other assessments and control testing activities?
• Improve the efficiency of the process in order to free up your resources and time?
• Take advantage of this information to run the business more effectively?

Make Sarbanes-Oxley work for you.

Link to financial statement accounts – incorporate your material financial statement accounts into ERA. Link risks, controls, processes and other key data elements to the appropriate accounts to develop a more holistic view.

Track certification progress – automatically generate certification surveys to allow regular sign-off. Use status reports, workflow rules and notifications to proactively manage the process.

Use data to start focusing more on risks – move beyond controls. Don’t lose sight of them, but you can work to avoid unnecessary risks and pursue opportunities with reasonable odds of success if you know what to look for.
