How to achieve compliance by design

GRC collaboration

GRC is a team game

Everybody plays a part: from the leadership, to the compliance team, to the people who perform work across your organization. Collaboration is the key. The people that do the work need to collaborate with managers, compliance teams, and regulatory experts to ensure work is compliant, risk adjusted, and aligned with business objectives.

Build GRC right into your work processes

GRC happens by design

Types of work that carry risks—or are impacted by regulations and policies—need to be co-designed between the people doing the work and your risk and compliance officers. Hornbill's drag-and-drop workflow canvas means everyone can understand the flow of your business processes.

Establish a change process to ensure ongoing compliance

Dynamic GRC guarantees on-going compliance

GRC is a shifting landscape, so business processes must adapt to track the current reality. When something changes, the process may need to change. Having a change process in place means you can adapt how people work quickly and safely—with collaboration being a critical factor. With Hornbill, you can enforce a change process on GRC-applicable business processes to ensure your compliance team is involved.
