Compliance and Governance
Following scandals and client concerns, compliance is everywhere. International bodies and national governments turn to compliance frameworks as a regulatory tool of choice. HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, BIS Outsourcing guidelines, FFIEC, FDA21 CF11 etc. Our trilateral governance model leads the industry and improves the viability of our clients.

Building a coherent compliance strategy is complex and costly. As the requirements grow and spread almost like a virus, many leading organizations are finding that ad hoc responses are inadequate.

Agilità helps you build governance models and compliance frameworks that ensure that service management structures are resilient to the changing world of compliance. We lead the world in ISO17799, BS15000, CobIT and ITIL expertise.

 
 

CoBIT
COBIT, issued by the IT Governance Institute and now in its third edition, is increasingly internationally accepted as good practice for control over information, IT and related risks. Its guidance enables an enterprise to implement effective governance over the IT that is pervasive and intrinsic throughout the enterprise. Agilità consultants have been trained by the best in the industry, through partnerships our own experience is continually supported by the leading experts in the field.

 
Sarbanes-Oxley
In the US and for companies active in the U.S., the Sarbanes-Oxley Act has been a dominant agenda item. While public companies and the accounting profession have made tremendous progress in meeting the rigorous requirements of this legislation, many C-level executives are still spending hours per day working on audit and compliance requirements.

Agilità believes that compliance as far as IT-enabled services are concerned cannot be adequately managed based on the individual rules of a particular regime; whether it is Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA or the FDA. Agilità believes that comprehensive immunization is the best policy. Using best practice approved by recognized auditors such as BS15000, SysTrust and ISO17799, we build immunized service environments that can stem the flood of audits and satisfy compliance through installing proactive certifiable best-practice.
 

Basel-II
Like its close relation, Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel-II is not aimed at IT but impacts the way in which IT is managed and the relationship between a business and its IT suppliers. This is especially the case if there is an outsourced relationship involved. Having a consolidated approach to IT governance is critical to ensure that the IT organization can deliver a common infrastructure to support regulatory compliance, performance management, risk management, and ethics initiatives.

Agilità believes that compliance as far as IT-enabled services are concerned cannot be adequately managed based on the individual rules of a particular regime; Agilità promotes comprehensive immunization as the best policy. Using best practice approved by recognized auditors such as BS15000, SysTrust and ISO17799, we build immunized service environments that can stem the flood of audits and satisfy compliance through installing proactive certifiable best-practice.

 
BIS Guidelines for Outsourcing
The bank of international settlements has issued nine recommendations to regulated financial institutions on how to contain risk when transferring work to an outsourcer. Agilità understand the guidelines and knows how to implement IT service management frameworks to ensure that you are compliant and in control.
