WEBINAR

Making the business case for GRC transformation: Value now, confidence for what's next

Tuesday, 29 September 2026 | 11AM (AEST/BST/ET)


Build a stronger case for GRC transformation. Learn how to quantify the cost of fragmented processes, identify credible near-term value and choose a foundation that will not limit what comes next.

From recognised pain to a credible case for change

Risk and compliance leaders often know their current approach needs to change. Manual work, overlapping systems, weak evidence trails and slow reporting create visible friction. The harder question is how to turn that friction into an investment case the wider business can support.

In this webinar, Protecht's Michael Howell and Echo Payton-Brown will show where to look for current-state cost, which benefits can be quantified credibly and how to balance immediate value with confidence in the platform decision.

Find out:
  • Where fragmented GRC creates measurable cost across manual work, duplicated systems and reporting.
  • How to separate immediate, quantifiable benefits from longer-term transformation value.
  • How to use independent research and benchmarks credibly while building support from executive, finance and technology stakeholders.
  • How to solve today's fragmentation without limiting what GRC needs to support next.

Make the case with evidence, not aspiration

A compelling GRC transformation case should show where value can be realised first without relying on broad promises about everything a future platform might enable. The webinar will use independent ROI findings and practical examples to show how benchmarks can inform the discussion, while keeping the organisation’s own current state at the centre of the case.
