Customer Project

Retail and financial services regulations require Woolworths to complete ongoing control reviews to ensure that all applications that are critical to the organization are well managed. Annual Application reviews are required to determine the level of controls that are implemented and the effectiveness of those controls.

Challenges

The existing framework and process needed to source data from several sources and only allowed a static view. This set up made it necessary to start over each year, unable to leverage existing data from past reviews.

Results

With Phinity, Woolworths is able to have all data, including assessments and evidence, in one place. Leveraging the platform as a single source of truth provides a unified workspace in which all data can easily be kept up to date.
