Description

This week, we'll be joined by Mark Walrod, Controls Integration Leader at Clearsulting. Mark shares why controls integration needs to start far earlier than most organizations think, often in what he calls phase zero of a major transformation. From ERP implementations to rolling out AI across the enterprise, he explains how waiting too long to involve controls can create costly rework and unnecessary risk. He also walks through common myths management holds about controls, like assuming a well-known ERP system comes with sufficient controls already built in and outlines practical warning signs teams can watch for to ensure controls are part of the conversation before go live.
