A-LIGN A-SCEND 2.0: Enabling an anytime, anywhere approach to compliance for anyone
2020-05-01 00:30

A-LIGN, a technology-enabled security and compliance partner trusted by more than 2,400 companies, announced the launch of A-SCEND 2.0, its propriety compliance management platform that enables an anytime, anywhere approach to compliance-for anyone.

A-SCEND 2.0 centralizes evidence collection and standardizes compliance requests, making it possible to consolidate multiple audits at once.

"Taking a strategic approach to compliance can save a lot of time and money, but you have to look at the big picture and plan ahead. Internally it's critical to create standard policies and procedures, and externally the key is to consolidate audits with a one-stop shop," said Nora Pan, VP, Products & Technology Standards & Compliance, PMO and Operations, TIBCO. "We picked A-LIGN because of its knowledge across multiple standards. Its technology-enabled service streamlines and standardizes the audit process, so our teams can get back to their day jobs. The end result improves our efficiency, our interoperability and our integration across products and services-basically, we can do more with less."

"Some companies struggle with compliance because they manage audits with spreadsheets and emails, but with A-SCEND 2.0 the same tool used to collect evidence is the same tool used to conduct audits," said Gene Geiger, CTO, A-LIGN. "Compliance is complex and time-consuming, but it shouldn't have to be a full-time job-that's why A-LIGN is transforming compliance by enabling an anytime, anywhere approach to make audits accessible to anyone."

"Technology plays a critical role in compliance, but it is important not to overlook the human element. Just as you wouldn't complete your corporate taxes without an accountant, you need a qualified guide to help navigate the complexity of compliance," said Scott Price, CEO, A-LIGN. "A-LIGN is unifying technology and humanity with its end-to-end compliance management solution and best-in-class experience-it is more than a tech-enabled service, it is a human-enabled service. Together, we are equipping our clients with new efficiencies allowing them to elevate their business to new heights."
