5 critical components to a smooth IRM/GRC implementation

Having a well-designed Integrated Risk Management (IRM) or Governance Risk Compliance (GRC) system has big benefits for organizations of all sizes. Even if you don’t have one, you likely know the purpose: a repeatable, automated system of checks and balances that decreases an organization’s risk exposure. Of course, there are other benefits, too, like eliminating the duplication of work and increasing transparency and accountability.

Software selection demands careful consideration; however, equally⁠—if not more⁠ important—is customizing said software to your unique needs and processes. Not to mention planning for user adoption.

There’s a lot to know when investing in an IRM/GRC solution, so we’ve developed this guide to familiarize you with the implementation process. We hope to save you from making costly errors. And help you have the smoothest implementation possible.
