Combined GRC competence: mauer* business consulting and GBTEC enter into strategic partnership

The recently formed partnership between the auditing and tax consulting company mauer* and GBTEC leads to the bundling of competencies of the two GRC specialists. Thus, customers receive the best possible support during planning, implementation and operation of their active GRC management system.

mauer* has extensive, subject-specific implementation experience, which is complemented by GBTEC's IT expertise to provide a comprehensive service in the area of Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC). GBTEC has specialized in the digitalization of the various GRC disciplines for over 15 years and supports companies worldwide with the BIC GRC software platform.

"It is a matter of concern for us to be able to offer our clients not only targeted consulting and project support, but also a software solution that enables optimal risk and compliance management. In GBTEC, we have found a strong partner due to its extensive product portfolio, which can map all use cases in the GRC area," explains Stephan Mauer, founder and executive partner of mauer*.

Samuel Brandstätter, Head of Product Line GRC and Managing Director at GBTEC Austria adds: "The design and establishment of GRC management processes is an extensive and important undertaking, in the context of which many of our customers rely on consulting partners like mauer*. The interplay of consulting and IT expertise results in valuable synergy effects, from which our clients can increasingly benefit in the future by sealing this partnership."

mauer* and GBTEC are equally committed to the philosophy that an efficient and effective GRC management system lays the foundation for integrity-based, value-oriented corporate governance. This consensus is the optimal prerequisite for a long-term, successful collaboration between the two GRC specialists.
