“Eighty-five percent of Gartner clients who use GRC technology have multiple tools in place.”
Overview
Scoping a governance, risk and compliance tool is difficult when requirements are unclear and needs evolve quickly. Many risk and compliance teams struggle to define what functionality they actually require at launch, how much complexity is necessary early on, or how to avoid overcommitting to modules they do not yet need.
Right-sizing a GRC investment means taking decisions about how clearly risk information is connected, understood and acted on across the organisation. Without a unified view, even well-scoped tools can reinforce silos and fragmented reporting.
The Gartner® research How Can ERM Rightsize Their GRC Tool Investment examines considerations for enterprise risk management leaders when determining how to right-size their GRC tool investment. It provides insights to support clearer scoping and more informed planning decisions.
