How the support service works
Continuous improvement is an important aspect of remaining
compliant with a number of regulations; this is why many
organisations find benefit in repeating these assessments at
regular intervals (e.g. annually). This provides a consistent
metric for key stakeholders (e.g. Senior Management,
the Board, Regulators, or shareholders) to measure and
demonstrate continuing improvement and increasing
maturity levels
