"We share OCEG’s belief that organizations are challenged by the prospect of integrating governance, risk and compliance business processes," said Andy Wyszkowski, Global Head of Compliance for SAI Global. "As a member of OCEG and its Technology Council, we look forward to leveraging our extensive global experience by participating in the important work of setting standards and outlining processes for GRC performance improvement."

“OCEG is delighted that SAI Global has joined our global Technology Council at this important moment in the development of GRC performance management,” said Lane Leskela, OCEG’s Vice President of Technology Programs. “We look forward to their unique contributions to our working groups for technology standards and tools. In addition, as a provider of key process framework standards developed in the Australian and New Zealand markets, OCEG members will benefit from SAI Global’s perspective on improving GRC capabilities in the enterprise.”

Leaders4 delivers one automated tool for integrating the dimensions of a corporation’s GRC program, eliminating solution fragmentation, standardizing processes and driving down the cost of governance, risk and compliance programs.
