New Delhi/Lucerne – Birlasoft, a global leader in digital transformation and IT consulting, has signed a landmark agreement with Swiss GRC to implement their comprehensive Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) Toolbox.

The implementation will provide Birlasoft with a centralized platform to streamline GRC-related matters across all departments, enhancing risk oversight and compliance efficiency. By adopting Swiss GRC’s holistic platform, Birlasoft will gain access to detailed reports and dashboards that monitor and manage internal GRC issues, establishing a unified risk framework across various functions like Internal Audit, Risk Management, Information Security, Legal, and Compliance.

Commenting on the partnership, Cdr Sanjeev Singh, CISO and Data Protection Officer of Birlasoft, and Former Director IT of the Indian Navy stated: “Our collaboration with Swiss GRC is a critical step in optimizing our GRC framework. The GRC Toolbox will enhance our internal processes, fortify our risk management capabilities, and reinforce our commitment to governance excellence. With Swiss GRC’s innovative solutions, we are confident that Birlasoft will experience operational efficiencies and improved risk mitigation.”

Aalok Mishra, Associate Director of Birlasoft added: “Implementing Swiss GRC’s platform is a game-changer for Birlasoft. It not only equips us with the tools to manage risk and compliance more effectively but also positions us to drive greater value for our clients by embedding GRC best practices into our operations.”

Besfort Kuqi, CEO of Swiss GRC, expressed excitement about the collaboration: “We are excited to welcome Birlasoft as our first major client in India, marking a crucial moment in our international expansion. Securing this partnership against major competitors is a testament to the strength of Swiss GRC’s platform. We are eager to see the positive impact our solutions will have on Birlasoft’s operations and their clients globally.”

Rajeev Dutt, General Manager MEA & APAC at Swiss GRC, emphasized the strategic importance of the partnership: “Birlasoft is a key partner for us as we expand our footprint in India and beyond. Their decision to implement Swiss GRC not only reflects our product’s strength but also opens the door to future collaboration across their client network. We look forward to working closely with them to deliver impactful results.”
