Grant Thornton launches SOC.x
Summary
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Grant Thornton LLP has launched SOC.x, a new platform to more efficiently produce reports covering System and Organization Controls (“SOC”), while also providing industry-leading, market-accepted quality. “Our engagement teams now have more time to focus on our clients’ risk areas, think advantageously and provide high-value recommendations.” Partnering with Quisitive to tap the Microsoft Azure cloud Historically, companies that produce SOC reports use relatively low-tech business applications and processes, such as spreadsheets, file collaboration sites and ticketing systems. Tapping into Azure allowed Grant Thornton to move SOC reporting onto one single platform that its professionals can ubiquitously access, while enjoying greater automation, standardization and collaboration. The platform is available to all of Grant Thornton’s service professionals so they can help quickly solve specific business problems for clients with new and emerging technologies. Grant Thornton, which has revenues of $1.92 billion and operates more than 50 offices, works with a broad range of dynamic publicly and privately held companies, government agencies, financial institutions, and civic and religious organizations.
