Do you need a fast track to pursuing best practice?

Design & Document your internal processes and controls, with our Architect application, to identify and address risk factors.

Architect enables you to lay the foundations for incorporating proven best practices into your operations (including the widely adopted COSO risk management framework) and build a coherent, comprehensive, documented set of processes and controls across your organization.

It capitalizes on the experience and methodology developed by CODA and its partners. The first methodology supported is SOXlite™, developed by internal audit specialist Control Solutions International.

It has created a straightforward “top-down” compliance methodology based on industry best practices and its years of helping clients implement effective, practical control systems. In partnership, CODA has applied the Architect software to deliver this methodology for Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance in the US – as well as similar support, in the near future, for other regulatory compliance requirements around the world, such as J-SOX (the Japanese equivalent), Basel II, the Code Tabaksblat (in the Netherlands) and the LSF (in France).

With Architect, organizations can fast track the stages of scoping and defining their enterprise risk management programme by selecting from an “off-the-shelf” list of key processes (along with associated procedures and controls to mitigate likely risks). Rather than building a framework from the ground up, they simply choose the most relevant best practices for their industry, needs and structure and can then amend them, if necessary, for their own specific situation.
