Customer Story

Large North American Bank

A global banking institution accelerated cloud governance certification and established a scalable GRC assessment model under regulatory pressure.

Client Context

Regulatory certification at global scale.

A leading North American bank faced a mandate to certify more than 1,000 systems against newly established control objectives during a corporate reorganization. Prior consultancy efforts had stalled progress, creating significant timeline risk.

  • Engagement scope: certify 1,000+ systems and stand up a scalable GRC assessment model.
  • Key challenges: regulatory deadlines, global complexity, and stalled prior engagements.
  • Successful outcomes: on-time certification and a repeatable cloud governance framework.
Challenges

High-volume certification under regulatory pressure.

  • Certify 1,000+ systems against control objectives within the regulatory deadline.
  • Align a fragmented global environment under a unified governance model.
  • Recover time lost due to prior consulting engagements.
Strategy & Execution

GRC Tiger Team and scalable assessment framework.

  • Formed an eight-person GRC Tiger Team to design the assessment approach.
  • Built decision trees, templates, and working standards to standardize assessments.
  • Deployed and trained IT contractor teams to execute assessments at scale.
  • Introduced an ITC buyout strategy to build long-term internal capability.
