CMO Compliance

CMO started life as a bespoke software development firm focussing on risk and compliance management solutions. The turning point came when we noticed the similarities that existed between the bespoke Governance, Risk & Compliance (“GRC”) solutions we were providing at the turn of the millennium, and set out to create a single software solution that could be configured rather than customized depending upon the client organisation and GRC process. CMO has remained true to this vision, throughout 6 product version releases and countless new features, often driven by client requirements and industry regulation. The result is a GRC software solution with a greater range of out of the box features than anything else on the market today. Another result of this vision is the flexibility the product provides end users to “reconfigure” or adjust their solution as and when their GRC landscape changes. Finally, the focus on configuration over customisation and the advanced nature of our generic product enables CMO to deploy the solution for clients in six weeks or less, a fact no other vendor can realistically compete with.
Beyond our level of configuration, CMO built its success on being first to market with latest technology. This tradition continues today with the recent release of our iPad and iPhone products. Whilst many incumbents are still selling solutions that were built pre web 2.0 (circa 2003) and resting on their recognised brands and strategic networks, CMO has forced its way into contention through cutting edge solutions using latest web technology, simple to use interfaces and a willingness to take on technological advancement as a core competency. CMO are pioneers, not reactionaries in this respect and will continue to pave the way in building solutions that leverage latest technology and make it simple to use and implement for our client base.
Finally, CMO has made simplicity of use, a core focus. GRC solutions demand significant change management within business, often impacting the daily activities of tens of thousands of end users. Software that cannot be easily operated and instantly introduce efficiency to process will struggle to be accepted. With this in mind, CMO always looks to make their interfaces intuitive and minimalist. Our satisfied clients continually rate it as a key reason for selecting us over our competition. Further, we have been recognised in this manner as global leaders by analysts including Forrester Research as well as Michael Rasmussen, who invented the GRC phrase.
