Sonke Governance, Risk and Compliance, a division of Sonke Computer Services Africa (SCSA Group), hosted a key launch GRC event in Johannesburg on 30 July, highlighting increased demand for risk, policy and quality management in business.

Document control management;
Quality management;
Policy management;
Health, safety and environmental management;
Non-conformance/CAPA management;
Supplier management;
