Overview
Many organisations are stuck with GRC platforms that are hard to change, costly to run and slow to support assurance. Small tweaks demand consultants or IT; reporting lags and board confidence in your management of risk and compliance suffers.
The opportunity is to move from legacy complexity to the clarity of a connected, next-level platform: one that links risks, controls, obligations, incidents and audits, improves frontline engagement, and is built for embedded, explainable AI.
| The rewards can be significant: Forrester's Total Economic Impact™ study found customers derived a 210% ROI, US$711K net present value (NPV), and a 7-month payback after deploying Protecht, including 60% less time maintaining risk registers, 75% faster attestations, and an 80% reduction in time spent creating reports. |
This guide shows how to build a credible business case and implement a low-risk, high-reward replacement for GRC software that isn't meeting your organisation's needs.

“Replacing legacy GRC is not a like-for-like swap. It is a chance to simplify, connect and embed assurance into daily work, so teams move faster, audits land cleaner and boards gain confidence.”
