The recent spate of accountability legislation has meant regulatory compliance efforts are just as much the domain of IT and marketing, as they once were for finance and legal.
 
But even if the focus on compliance has shifted to a different part of the house, the premise for addressing it remains the same:

 
1) Interpret new regulations /
legislation

What are they asking for, and what are our obligations?
 
2) Identity and quantify risk and
exposure

How far are we from compliance, and what will it take to become compliant?
3) Respond with mitigation efforts
Where do we focus first, given our risk and exposure?

Interpret 
Knowitsoft have expertise in interpreting new regulatory legislation, and translating it into component data, process and performance standards, which can be used on their own, or incorporated into an interpreted compliance model within MetaSphere.


Identify
 
Using the MetaSphere suite, organisational data, process and structure are modelled to identify what information is held, how it is handled. The ‘actual’ model is then compared against an interpreted compliance model, for quantifying risk and exposure.

Respond
 
Using a cost and performance approach, the highest risk (most costly) items are addressed first. Performance monitoring capabilities within MetaSphere provide timely and relevant feedback to stakeholder audiences as to the progress of compliance efforts, as well as quickly identifying any lapses.
