THE CLIENT
Ensuring public mobility through governance and compliance
The client is an essential part of the infrastructure that serves a major metropolitan area, providing millions of trips annually across a range of public transportation options. With a focus on ensuring safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance, the client aims to make public transit a first choice for travel, thus minimizing road congestion and reducing carbon footprint. Its adoption of sophisticated governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) solutions serves as a strategic initiative to continuously improve operational efficiency and compliance, setting the stage for the challenges that lay ahead.
the challenge
Navigating complex governance, risk, and compliance landscape
When the client sought to improve its governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) framework, it was dealing with a landscape fraught with duplicative solutions and fragmented data. Another compliance solution was in place, but it lacked the scalability and integration capabilities the client needed for a more unified risk management approach. The client’s security and risk leadership knew it had to deprecate existing isolated solutions and pivot to a more agile and integrated ServiceNow GRC module. The greatest challenge was determining how to achieve this transition smoothly, effectively, and within a short time frame.
THE SOLUTION
A tailored, multiphase approach to GRC maturity
Partnering with Cask, the client initiated a multiphase ServiceNow GRC project, segmented into two primary phases: GRC MVP and GRC Phase 2. Each phase had unique objectives, defined during detailed workshops and planning sessions.
Phase 1: GRC MVP
- Risk Management: Existing risk register, entity scoping, and prescriptive guidance for risk response management were imported.
- Policy and Compliance: Control, attestations or indicator tasks, and policy exception lifecycle were put in place.
Phase 2: GRC Phase 2
- Recurring Task Tracking: A GRC indicators solution was developed for recurring task tracking.
- Maturation and Enhancement: Scope was created for ongoing maturation efforts like process maturation, third-party integrations, and additional training.
This structured approach, spearheaded by the client with support from Cask, led to tangible benefits, such as enhanced dashboard reporting and notifications for increased enterprise risk visibility.
