Regulatory Compliance

Your regulatory response reflects the level of control and maturity you have in your business. The flow of new laws and regulations across regional, national and international borders continues to intensify. No matter how large, small or diversified your organization, almost every part of it is touched by a complex web of constantly evolving regulations and subject to enforcement actions and fines. Not to mention reputational risk.

During the past years especially the Life Science Industry felt the impact of growing requirements on transparency in the industry’s interactions with Health Care Professionals and Organizations. As a result of that the PwC Risk Operations Centre has been established on three key pillars People – Process – Technology, to allow Pharmaceutical and MedTech companies to select the right level of support from basic process reviews to entire outsourced solutions of the transparency, not excluding the engage to pay process.

Compliance is about more than prevention. It’s also about navigating opportunities. Opportunities which can strengthen your organization through strategic, proactive measures such as best practices, employee training, internal controls, and benchmarking appropriate for your industry and size. Measures that can uncover value, even as they help assure compliance.

Transformed global business and operations strategies add new interruption risks to existing risk portfolios. Building resilient and recoverable operations is more difficult to implement when a crisis occurs and time is precious.

Your leadership and board members may be asking questions such as:

Are we ready to recover from business interruption risk events publicly disclosed to our investors?
Can we count on our suppliers to have viable continuity plans that protect us in their time of crisis?
How well can our suppliers pivot to support us in our time of crisis?
Does our IT disaster recovery program support our operational recovery and resiliency requirements?
