The operating challenge

What this solution addresses

Vilfora ERM consolidates issues originating from RCSA, incidents, compliance reviews, audit, KRIs, third parties and management review without breaking the link to the source record. Each issue can carry severity, root cause, owner, target date, actions, milestones, dependencies, evidence and closure validation.

01

Findings from different functions are tracked in separate logs, creating duplicate actions and inconsistent status reporting.

02

Target dates move without a controlled record of rationale, approval or residual exposure.

03

Actions are marked complete before independent reviewers validate evidence and sustainable closure.
