Procter & Gamble Empowers Global Business Controls
March 15, 2006 - In an effort to manage business controls across its global SAP deployment, Procter & Gamble (P&G) is licensing the BizRights platform and Enterprise Controls Suite from Approva Corporation, an enterprise controls management software provider.
P&G, which maintains the largest global deployment of SAP software in the world, is using this software to design, test, monitor and audit application controls across its global SAP deployment, including managing sensitive access and segregation of duties, supporting a compliant provisioning process for new user requests and monitoring sensitive transactions within SAP. In addition to licensing Approva's products, P&G will also become a member of Approva's Customer Advisory Council and will provide ongoing input into Approva's product direction.
"We're excited about Approva's plans to enhance the capabilities we have developed and are looking forward to using that product to meet our own business needs," says Melanie Moody, associate director, information security & solutions, P&G. "Our goals in choosing Approva are to build on the capabilities we've created and to implement the most comprehensive, scalable and cost-effective solution for monitoring SAP access controls that is commercially available."
