A client of ours, a major global logistics and transportation company realized the necessity of a reliable GRC solution to solve the challenges they face when it came to managing compliance policies, policies, and risks.

Challenges in GRC Implementation:

Our client had a number of issues in their GRC landscape prior to the launch of ServiceNow GRC. These issues included:

• 30% Rework because of Dirty Policy The team struggled to maintain the integrity and accuracy of their policies. This resulted in significant revisions because of outdated or inaccurate policies.
• 20% Lack of Adaptation Policies: Employees in the company had a difficult time adapting to the policies in place which led to inconsistencies and non-compliance.
• 30% Inadequate Reporting of Policy Exceptions: The prior system did not have efficient reporting tools which made it difficult to monitor and control policies and policy violations.
• 25% Failure to comply with KPIs was faced with challenges in meeting the important performance measures (KPIs) in compliance, which could lead to a penalty for regulatory violations and penalties.
• 20 Audit Failures of 20 percent external auditors: The prior GRC system did not comply with the demands of external auditors, which resulted in audit errors and heightened scrutiny.
• 35 percent Hand-written Reporting on Issues In the absence of automated reporting tools forced our client's teams to depend on manual processes, which led to delays, inefficiencies, and even mistakes.

Given the difficulties encountered by our clients with their GRC environment, It became clear that a solid solution was required to get over these hurdles and create a positive transformation. The complexity of implementing the policies and procedures, as well as ensuring that they are in compliance, and managing risks required a robust platform that could streamline operations, improve processes and give real-time information.

Realizing the necessity for an integrated and effective GRC Solution In the wake of recognizing that GRC was a complex and inefficient solution, ServiceNow began to implement the use of the GRC solution offered by ServiceNow GRC. This was motivated by the popularity of the platform and its capability in the management of policies and controls as well as risk assessments, monitoring compliance, and reporting capabilities. With the help of ServiceNow GRC, they aimed to change their GRC methods, confront the issues head-on and attain a range of outcomes that will improve their compliance and governance framework.
