Bidvest ALICE: SaaS for Governance and Assurance
de Bidvest Advisory Services (Pty) Ltd
ALICE is an intelligent platform enabling assurance departments (GRC) to automate their procedures.
ALICE is a platform that enables you
to create an ecosystem of digital services to govern, manage and monitor your
business. She combines intelligent automation with cognitive services to
create a digital workforce to assist those charged with governance and
management oversight responsibilities with real-time and continuous visibility
into a business.
Often those charged with governance
and management oversight have to rely on a consolidation
of insights generated from manual processes
to gain visibility into the risks of the entire business environment. ALICE provides a
platform to automate the generation of consolidated insights based on automated collection
mechanisms, continuous and remote running of cognitive services and automated
reporting capabilities. These
consolidated insights are provided to those charged with governance and
management oversight responsibilities through a single pane of glass with
drill-down facilities available.
Through the automated data collection mechanisms
and intelligent translation and reporting
capabilities, ALICE creates digital services. Business logic and rules are translated
into repeatable algorithms and augmented
with cognitive services, as required, are applied to data assets to:
- Identify exceptions;
- Provide valuable insights;
- Provide focused monitoring mechanisms of business risks;
- Provide stratified sample selections; and/or
- Provide
intelligent opinions over entire populations,
if required.
The above outcomes of the digital services are available in default dashboards and working
papers in ALICE or are available as data points
accessed via ALICE's APIs to be visualized and reported in any GRC Tool or BI tool of
choice.
