Sarbanes-Oxley White Papers

Compliance Framework for Manufacturing

Overview Increased scrutiny in regulatory oversight has brought about a new host of regulations and enforcement initiatives of particular importance to manufacturers. In addition to specific vertical regulations, including OSHA, EPA and other state-mandated safety and environmental regulations that manufacturers are accustomed to dealing with, they now need to comply with new requirements imposed by legislation such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), Homeland Security Act and the USA Patriot Act. The cost of non-compliance carries severe penalties - including plant shut downs, fines and even criminal prosecution. While each mandate has its own specific requirements, there is one common denominator: The need for greater visibility, control and accountability of content and processes to lower risk.
