Governance
Every business says it values growth, agility and innovation. But if you skip the foundation of governance, compliance and risk you’re building on sand. In today’s landscape, that foundation must include smart controls for AI ethics and the baseline protection of Cyber Essentials. Getting this right means you’re not just ticking boxes, you’re layering security to protect your business in a way that scales across apps, companies and geographies.
IT governance and IT audit services
At PKF Infuse we recognise that robust IT governance is the foundation of sustainable business success in complex multi-entity environments. Our work with leading organisations has helped them build governance frameworks that support strategy, enhance oversight, and enable operational excellence across all apps, systems and business units. We don’t simply advise – we embed systems and processes so management can reduce the burden of governance technicalities and focus on running their business.
We have carefully reviewed each project to identify the common themes and requirements of effective IT governance and IT audit programmes. Combining our deep expertise in governance frameworks with hands-on implementation experience using best of breed GRC tools, we have developed ready-to-use governance accelerators designed for scenarios involving multiple apps and multiple companies, providing layered security to protect your business at scale.
Our Governance & Audit Accelerators make this expertise accessible and cost-effective, providing you with tools to manage governance, risk and compliance (GRC) across multiple business units, platforms and entities. With the right structure you gain confidence in your governance processes, clarity in accountability, and the freedom to innovate.
