Efficient policy management: EQS Group launches EQS Policy Manager

EQS Group has launched EQS Policy Manager, expanding their product portfolio in the business segment Corporate Compliance. The cloud-based solution digitally maps all policy management processes and automates compliance officer workflows.

EQS Policy Manager is the solution for the large number of policies in circulation in companies, a number which is ever-growing due to increasing regulation. From the traditional code of conduct through to data protection, health and safety at work and internal guidelines on internet usage and accepting corporate gifts, the list of policies is seemingly endless. As these documents often circulate in multiple languages, with different site-specific characteristics or sometimes even in outdated versions, it is almost impossible to keep track of them. Not only for the compliance officer, but also for employees (or suppliers) who have to read the guidelines and confirm they have taken note of the content.

EQS Policy Manager substantially increases the efficiency and effectiveness of compliance systems. The software digitally maps all workflows in policy management - from document creation to automated distribution, version-safe storage and effectiveness measurement. In addition, all processes are documented so officers can, thanks to the comprehensive reporting functions, create meaningful reports for management or supervisory authorities. Due to their personalized access, employees are also always in the picture and can access the relevant guidelines at any time.

CEO and founder Achim Weick sees the new software as a major step closer to EQS Group's vision of a comprehensive compliance management system: "We are delighted that with EQS Policy Manager we are able to bring order to the policy chaos. Digitizing and automating the processes makes the work of the compliance officers much easier - and helps our customers to efficiently minimize their compliance risks."

EQS Policy Manager is particularly relevant for medium-sized companies and large corporations with more than 250 employees, as the number of guidelines and associated processes is particularly high in these companies. This means there is a market potential of more than 30,000 customers in EQS Group's European core markets alone. The first customer could already be won before the official launch.
