Encrisp LLC, a global leader in designing and implementing leading-edge Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) solutions, today announced that it completed a multi-year SAP® GRC engagement for a global telecom services provider that resulted in over 75% security and internal controls improvements and efficiency gains related to SAP.
Leesburg, VA (Issues Wire / PRWEB) November 28, 2007 -- EnCrisp LLC, a global leader in designing and implementing leading-edge Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) solutions, announced that it has recently completed a multi-year SAP® GRC engagement for a global telecom services provider -- resulting in more than 75% security and internal controls improvements and efficiency gains related to SAP.
EnCrisp was engaged to provide SAP security redesign across the client's entire SAP landscape. The work included SAP security and controls design and implementation assistance, audit remediation, as well as business liaison and project management for overall SAP compliance and SAP security redesign. The EnCrisp team was comprised of more than 30 SAP experts working cross-functionally to complete the project. As a result of these efforts, the completely redesigned and optimized SAP security model resulted in immediate compliance with all regulatory mandates and audit tests. EnCrisp leveraged its proprietary EnCURE™ GRC platform and integrated it with SAP GRC applications for designing and integrating SAP security and provisioning processes. This included business rules design and security design at object level definition. The EnCrisp team was able to measurably improve security and compliance efficiencies, demonstrating instant ROI in terms of improved maintenance and knowledge transfer.
EnCrisp's EnCURE platform is based on a 'business-driven' security and controls design architecture and, keeping in line with this philosophy, EnCrisp convinced the client that security was not just a technical problem, but rather a business issue and should be driven by the business organization - with IT collaboration. EnCrisp assisted in developing appropriate interfaces between the IT security team, business process teams, and global audit and compliance functions. To ensure future sustainability, an optimal SAP security team was designed, set up and aligned with other IT teams and HR business functions. User training and knowledge transfer provided by EnCrisp also played a key role in ensuring the success of the client's ongoing SAP GRC compliance.
"We guarantee a successful outcome whenever we are engaged to provide GRC solutions. Because of our proprietary methods and tools combined with our global depth, this client engaged us to firefight and fix major issues in their SAP controls environment. Our guaranteed results are due to our confidence in proven abilities to persevere and succeed against all imaginable odds in any GRC implementation effort worldwide. This is what distinguishes our execution from other firms," said Bhavesh C. Bhagat, Chairman and CEO of EnCrisp. "Our 'business-driven' approach is key to EnCrisp's success. The combination of our best-in-class SAP technical expertise, including programming, coupled with our financial and audit depth at the CFO and controller level helped us lead and collaborate with each of the Big Four firms and other IT integrators involved in supporting the client's SAP infrastructure. This level of skills and execution integration kept the project moving smoothly and resulted in timely completion with a 'Zero Defect' Go-Live scenario. To finish a multi-year security design and GRC alignment effort like this - without a single end-user help desk incident - is a best practice achieved through excellent teaming with our client colleagues and partners."
