CAMMS

Governance, risk and compliance software, now part of Riskonnect

Camms has produced business software for governance, risk and compliance for many years, and its website now announces that it has joined forces with Riskonnect, a company that builds configurable risk management technology. The page tells visitors looking for Camms products that they are in the right place, and links to the combined range, which spans governance, risk and compliance software, cyber and IT risk, environmental, social and governance reporting, and business continuity and resilience.

The original product families

Before the combination, Camms described its offer as integrated solutions in four areas: risk, strategy, projects and people. They could be used one at a time or together as a complete system. The company said its aim was to help organisations make better decisions, manage risk, align the talents of their staff and concentrate on what matters.

• Risk: software for managing opportunity and risk across an organisation, together with policy management, which addresses the problem of out-of-date or mismanaged policies when an organisation relies on spreadsheets, email and shared drives.
• Strategy: tools to turn an organisation's strategy into delivery and to measure individual and collective performance.
• Projects: support for delivering projects and portfolios consistently.
• People: tools that digitise manual meeting processes and streamline workflows and reporting.

It also offered ESG reporting, aimed at going beyond the minimum reporting requirements, with data delivered to stakeholders in a clear form and integration across an organisation's IT systems.

Incident reporting and other themes

The company published guidance on incident, hazard and near-miss reporting, listing signs that an organisation needs a better process. It also described its products as quick to implement and use, with out-of-the-box solutions and customer care.

Recognition

Camms names Gartner, Forrester and Chartis Research among the analysts, and G2 and Capterra among the review sites, that have recognised its software. In the Forrester Wave for governance, risk and compliance platforms in the third quarter of 2021, the company made its first appearance as a strong performer.

The present site confirms the move into Riskonnect, and the product areas it lists now sit under that group's name.
