Overview
IBM OpenPages Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) solutions provide deep insight into enterprise-wide risk and compliance activities, enabling companies to increase business performance and adapt to new regulatory challenges with a proactive, risk-based approach to regulatory change.
Many of today’s leading companies have chosen OpenPages to deliver a fully scalable, integrated GRC architecture, enabling the elimination of siloed risk management practices, while allowing increased efficiencies and intelligent investment prioritization.
Benefits of the OpenPages GRC Platform
- No change to your methodology - OpenPages software does not require any changes to ongoing risk management processes or the development of custom extensions to existing software.
- Lower costs - OpenPages does not require custom code, which is more expensive to develop for initial implementation and much more expensive to maintain and extend over time.
- Time to deployment - The OpenPages metadata–driven application framework provides unparalleled configuration and adaptability to support rapid implementation at a fraction of the time of custom development projects.
- Future proofing - Risk and compliance processes need to evolve over time to meet changing business and regulatory requirements. OpenPages’ unique configuration capabilities instill individual risk frameworks with the adaptability needed to meet changing requirements, while minimizing the impact on continuing business operations.
