From routine to strategic: Building the business case for AI in GRC.
July 1 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT
Description:
To elevate our role and keep pace with the business, assurance teams must evolve. The shift allows AI to handle the administrative grunt work while ensuring smart delegation. By automating routine tasks, such as extracting data from vendor SOX reports and the detailed tick-and-tying test work, teams can reclaim the bandwidth necessary for the strategic work that the business truly needs from us. However, this evolution requires a dual focus: leveraging automation while establishing and maintaining enterprise-grade guardrails that actually protect data.
This session will focus on the shift from traditional oversight to smart delegation. We will break down how to dissect your team’s workload, separate the tasks requiring human judgement from the routine administrative lift, and safely introduce AI to handle the rest. You will leave with a strategy to pitch automation to the board, proving that it is the best way to expand your reach and deliver greater value to the organization.
Learning objectives:
- Develop a framework to distinguish audit tasks that involve human-based judgment from routine administrative tasks that can be automated by AI
- Compare data privacy, technical debt, and governance risks between building your own AI tools and enterprise-grade solutions.
- Develop a strong business case for GRC technology investments that focuses on increasing risk coverage, quantifiable efficiency gains, and organizational resilience.
