Diligent, a leading GRC SaaS company, today announced Diligent One, a first-of-its-kind platform that provides leadership, boards and practitioners with a single source for all their governance, risk and compliance (GRC) needs. The platform was announced live today at Modern Governance Summit, the world’s premier GRC event, and is available in pilot phase now.
Over the last six months Diligent has launched board and leadership reporting dashboards for ESG, Audit, Cyber Risk and Investor Engagement to bring clear and consistent insight into organisations’ risk posture. With Diligent One, users have the ability to customize and create dashboards using company data and systems. Combined with Diligent’s best-in-class solutions across governance, risk, compliance, audit and ESG, customers now have a connected view of risk management and the ability to capture and contextualise data and insights and report to the board — all within a single platform.
“In order to see the big picture, you need to start with data. Yet often that data is in spreadsheets or a number of systems accessed by many different applications. This is where risk lives — in the unconnected dots and spaces between siloed systems,” said Brian Stafford, President and CEO of Diligent, during his keynote speech at Modern Governance Summit. “In our conversations with customers over the years, the one constant has been that they are inundated with data and solutions. This is why we are so excited to bring our customers the only platform on the market that provides a single source of truth for all your GRC needs.”
“In today’s fast-moving business environment, obtaining access to high-quality governance data is essential to understanding and meeting the needs of a diverse set of stakeholders,” said Lili Mehta, Senior Vice President and Global Head of Glass Lewis’ Corporate Business. “Board directors and executives now require a unified view of their data so they can more effectively analyse and report to their stakeholders. By delivering meaningful information, companies can proactively manage a wide range of issues and maintain a competitive edge.”
Diligent One is the only platform to deliver automated analyses of virtually any data and provide continuous monitoring of identified areas of risk, allowing organisations to reduce manual work, build actionable insights and expand risk coverage while saving time and money.
“The risk landscape is expanding and evolving at an increasing rate, and understanding the specific risks that could materially impact the business has become more difficult as a result,” said Adam Bailey, SVP and Global Head of Product at Diligent. “A fragmented approach to GRC is no longer sustainable for organisations. An integrated platform is key to providing the insights needed to drive company performance and ensure operational health.”
