In 2012 we took a close look at the methods used to control compliance and the evidence required to meet it. We found that traditional management systems did little to help or to communicate compliance needs.
The static nature of traditional systems do not form part of the day to day business activities. In many cases outdated, templated documents are utilised that are neither relevant, effectively controlled or respected within the organisation or by the regulator.
Furthermore, it was apparent that management systems were locally controlled, often isolated, making communication a real problem. Invariably, the majority of the organisation would be unaware that a management system existed.
With advances in technology and increasingly stringent compliance requirements, we recognised the need for a software system to manage this.
