Policy Governance and Compliance Management
Control the policy lifecycle and run evidence-based compliance monitoring, self-assessments, attestations and corrective action from a shared framework.
What this solution addresses
Vilfora ERM combines a governed policy repository with compliance plans, review programmes, checklists, self-assessments, evidence and non-conformance management. Policies stay connected to the obligations, controls, risks, processes and employee groups they are intended to govern.
Policies are stored as documents without reliable ownership, version, approval, effective-date or review controls.
Compliance testing relies on manually assembled checklists and evidence with little connection to obligations or controls.
Attestations and acknowledgements are difficult to target, chase and prove during review.
Included capabilities
Each capability uses the same ownership, workflow, approval, evidence and audit-history foundation as the wider ERM platform.
Policy lifecycle
Draft, review, approve, publish, amend, retire and periodically reassess controlled policies.
Version and applicability
Preserve effective versions and map each policy to entities, functions, regulations, risks and controls.
Compliance monitoring
Schedule reviews, assign tests, capture samples and evidence and record reviewer conclusions.
Self-assessments
Distribute structured questionnaires with scoring, comments, attachments and approval workflow.
Acknowledgement and action
Target employee groups, monitor completion and convert non-conformances into corrective actions.
A governed end-to-end workflow
