Insight

Winterhawk recently asked SAP’s Nishi Prakash, Senior Director, GRC Global CoE, for her insights. We posed the question:

How does GRC, specifically SaaS and Cloud-based GRC, fit with SAP’s corporate strategy?

Nishi’s reply:

SAP’s Corporate Strategy is to ‘Deliver the Intelligent Enterprise’, using ‘BIS with Predictive Analytics’ and ‘SAP Next Practise.’ Winterhawk’s GRC Synergy delivers a very cost-effective and efficient SaaS service, linked perfectly to our corporate strategies.
