No matter how big or from which industry: Today, every company is faced with the challenge of achieving company-wide or cross-departmental goals, executing processes, establishing business relationships while observing legal, industry-specific, standard-specific, social and company-internal rules and monitoring compliance with them . IMS PREMIUM enables clear control, administration and mapping of the complex interaction of goals and risks as well as monitoring processes to be carried out based on applicable laws and standards.

With the functionalities tailored to governance, risk and compliance, relationships and specifications of the entire organization can be easily mapped and supported. Risks can be assessed, monitored and mitigation measures derived. At the same time, goal achievement can be managed using well-thought-out performance management and, where necessary, corrective measures can be initiated and monitored.

IMS PREMIUM offers a simple procedure to identify risks, record them, evaluate them using risk matrices and determine responsibilities for their monitoring. Assessments can be carried out in a structured and consolidated manner across multiple locations and areas. Preventive, risk-reducing or event-related measures can be created directly for the risk. Automated review mechanisms and clear representations of open tasks and responsibilities are available to control and monitor risks and their measures.

Successful compliance management provides management and control mechanisms depending on the market, industry, type or orientation of the business. These support the management in its duty of compliant corporate governance and the responsible bodies in complying with it. In the compliance management system, the relevant fundamentals (laws, statutes, instructions, standards, etc.) can be inventoried and internal dependencies (e.g. affected processes) can be documented. Specifications can be stored in a versioned manner and released in a workflow-controlled manner. Read confirmations, e.g. for new/changed specifications, can be obtained and documented by people on a system-based basis. This ensures transparency, traceability and therefore audit security.

Compliance checks can be defined and carried out, compliance violations can be recorded and measures can be initiated to restore or improve compliance.

The internal control system (ICS) can be implemented using a risk-based approach. Process-related or company-wide controls can be defined cyclically or individually and responsibilities can be assigned. The complete control inventory can be viewed and evaluated by authorized persons at any time.

Those carrying out inspections are made aware of their upcoming inspections and can provide proof of implementation directly in the system. System-supported monitoring mechanisms can also be set up, which, for example, trigger an information/escalation email to a higher-level authority in the event of overdue checks.

Audits or internal revisions can be easily planned, carried out in a workflow-controlled manner and documented verifiably and thus in an audit-proof manner. Findings or recommendations for control optimization are recorded directly and measures are initiated to eliminate the weak points.

All of the GRC topic areas described can be mapped digitally with IMS PREMIUM. The continuous, integrated information capture enables numerous evaluations from a wide variety of viewing angles. No matter whether risks, compliance requirements, controls, compliance checks, audits or internal revisions - every topic has comprehensive evaluation options (reporting).

Thanks to digital and workflow-controlled processes, you can achieve more efficiency and transparency in your GRC management. The procedures and responsibilities in processes are controlled and their implementation is documented automatically and comprehensibly.

IMS PREMIUM provides you with significant support in fulfilling your verification obligations. For example, workflow-controlled release processes and versioning of specifications ensure consistent traceability and audit security.

To promote clarity and transparency, tasks, competencies, responsibilities and much more can be defined in the organization, in processes and in risk/control management, etc.

The integrated management system helps you to provide exactly the information and specifications that the employee needs in his role/function.

Management has a handy management cockpit at its disposal - it can see relevant key figures, risks and news with just one click. The risk manager finds risks and derived measures within his area of ​​responsibility, while the person responsible for implementing controls sees the pending controls. The auditor maintains an overview of the revisions assigned to him and quickly navigates to the documented findings and derived measures.
