Companies today are currently facing unprecedented business disruption and radical technological change to their business. We deliver practical, tailored, and sustainable solutions designed to improve the operating effectiveness of your governance, risk, and compliance framework and activities, and to leverage these activities to support the business in anticipating and responding to risks more quickly and effectively.

Every company has different challenges, and it will depend on your goals and aspirations for your governance, risk and compliance activities. We help companies transition and position their existing governance, risk and compliance activities to become more agile, forward-looking and ‘strategic risk partners’ to the business.

Our approach combines proven hands-on experience with deep governance, risk and compliance knowledge, coupled with access to global and local best practices.

Depending on the scope of the project, we normally agree fixed price contracts. This allows you to have a fixed budget with no surprises.

However for short-term consulting projects or urgent projects, we find that time and materials (disbursements) contracts are more appropriate.

We work in close collaboration with our customers to determine the scope of a project depending on the business needs, challenges and size of the organization. The project scope is typically determined during the initial consultation and discovery sessions.

Although we adapt our approach to your business needs and goals, a typical consulting project is organised in the following way:

Initial discovery meeting(s) to determine your governance, risk and compliance challenges (‘as-is’ scenario) and obtain information (under a non-disclosure agreement – NDA).

We will submit a proposal that includes a scope of work (SOW), pricing, requirements, and timelines for your consideration and acceptance.

Once the proposal is accepted, we will agree a regular communication and milestone reporting plan, and we will commence with the analysis and root cause identification.

We then design and develop best-in-class solutions to present and agree with you. The accepted solution is documented together with an implementation plan, and agreed with you.

We will then work with you and your subject matter experts to transfer the knowledge and implement the agreed ‘to-be’ solution.

After an agreed period we will check-in with you to review the implementation and change effectiveness, and address any remaining gaps.

Although we prefer to have an official closeout of the project, we will continue to check-in from time to time as agreed to ensure that the solution is working as it was intended and is delivering the results you expected.

The length of time of a project varies and is based on a number of factors including:

• Business needs and challenges
• Size of the organization, division or team
• Scope of the project
• Budget

We appreciate the value of your time, and we make every effort to ensure that we structure our projects and scope of work so that we are not a burden on you and your team, and that the work is carried out efficiently and in the shortest time possible, without compromising quality.
