We're seeing industry-wide demand for solutions to make compliance sustainable and, at the same time, more efficient and more effective. Many companies are beginning to act on improvement opportunities identified through their Sarbanes-Oxley efforts. Increasingly, companies are undertaking projects to better leverage technology to improve information quality, automate internal controls and enhance monitoring and reporting capabilities.

Organizations are under increasing pressure to demonstrate that they are achieving compliance. However, implementing a series of end-point technology solutions to meet each compliance mandate individually is not only difficult to manage, it's a drain on internal resources. Risk Commander is designed to alleviate the burden of managing disparate compliance controls, making compliance reporting easier and more cost-efficient so organizations can focus on what really matters -- their business.

Achieving compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley, a law aimed at improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate financial statements, is dependent on having access to timely, accurate, and complete information and establishing process controls -- the same success factors required to create more secure and efficient global trade operations.

With a recent University of Rochester study concluding that the total effect of Sarbanes-Oxley has reduced the stock value of American companies by a staggering $1.4 trillion dollars, it is now clear that the costly regulatory burdens imposed by this legislation absolutely outweigh its benefits. The PCAOB and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act raise unconstitutional barriers to needed liquidity, discourage entrepreneurship and innovation, and hinder U.S. competitiveness by denying access to needed capital. Further, the high cost of compliance that disproportionately affects smaller public companies is having long-term, exponential negative implications for our economy.

[Still, even when you concede that Sarbanes-Oxley performed a public service--by spurring companies to clean up their acts--the fact remains that the law has created inequities, especially for small companies. Even Oxley himself has begun backpedaling. In a recent speech in London, he recalled the] hothouse atmosphere ... a bit more flexibility for small and medium-size companies.

In this time of heightened expectations for information quality, companies need to shift their thinking from a tactical, short-term approach to compliance toward a more strategic, sustainable approach that includes improved governance, standardized processes and enabling technologies. Sun's technologies can be leveraged to build solutions for integrating compliance into clients' daily operations, building accountability into the IT operation and improving long-term business performance.

One thing that wasn't done well in the first year [of Sarbanes-Oxley, 2002], something companies are starting to get right, is assigning ownership of controls -- knowing how processes will be monitored, day in and day out, and who's on top of them.

It wasn't particularly material. And it's not particularly unusual. A lot of companies are going back and reviewing their controls because of Sarbanes-Oxley and finding tax errors. But for a company like H&R Block, it was particularly embarrassing.

Alexander Paris

Companies should look for solutions to support multiple regulations and multiple business units. Sustainable compliance, that is, a level of effort that is sufficient but not excessive, will only be achieved by consolidating compliance efforts through a programmatic rather than project oriented approach.

Spending on Sarbanes-Oxley is only the visible tip of the compliance iceberg. Any expectation that compliance spending might moderate is just wishful thinking as companies in all industries grapple with increased regulatory concerns and stricter governance and risk policies within their own firms.

Poor information quality is a critical problem for companies today. Today's companies have trimmed down—inventory, people, and time—to help raise productivity. Reliance on accurate information is growing. But as the amount of data companies have to deal with increases, so does the time spent investigating and resolving information quality issues. Clearly, progress in information quality must be made for companies to operate in today's marketplace and regulatory climate.

Enterprise 9.0 - Compliance Edition spans both worlds. It enables our customers not only to meet their regulatory compliance and corporate governance requirements, but also enhance internal controls, implement best practices and improve business efficiency.

Compliance is definitely a big driver of this. One fundamental [Sarbanes-Oxley requirement] is, if it is a public company, to report to Wall Street how many customers you have; because people are making investment decisions as to whether your customer base is going up or down. If you have no idea how many customers you have because you have acquired different companies, then you potentially have a compliance issue there.

Companies around the world have purchased more than $40 billion worth of enterprise applications, including ERP, CRM and HR, during the past few years. This has generated significant volumes of data in support of the operational processes they automate. By investing in BI, companies can further leverage their enterprise application investments and turn the torrent of data into meaningful insight to better measure performance, respond more quickly to market changes and opportunities and comply with an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
