We're Expanding the Orchestra (And Handing You the Conductor's Wand)
Risk and compliance orchestration has always been the foundation of what we do. Just like how the word itself brings to mind a musical orchestra, you can think of each part of the TPRM process as an instrumental section.
Due diligence workflows are the first violins, stringing along the melody throughout the entire symphony. Legal is the percussion section, ensuring a consistent beat. And Certa’s orchestration engine is the conductor that makes sure every player is working in synchronicity.
But today, we’re announcing a change. We’re expanding the orchestra to two new categories: intake & orchestration and supply chain risk management. And with the release of Vibe Configuration℠, which allows you to orchestrate people, processes and systems using natural language, we’re handing you the conductor’s wand.
Vibe Configuration (It’s AI, Not UI)
Many people by now have heard of vibe coding: writing code by prompting large language models rather than generating line after line of precise syntax.
Today we’re handing you the conductor’s wand by introducing Vibe Configuration℠. In short, users can create and edit workflows by providing Certa’s chatbot instructions in plain English.
Whereas modifying workflows in the past might’ve required help from coders and consultants — causing extra costs, delays, and inefficiencies — Vibe Configuration℠ lets you take control of your orchestration flows without having to write a single line of code.
In Certa Studio, you can directly tell the chatbot to “create a new infosec questionnaire” or “remove step five of the intake process,” and you’ll see your change happen in real time.
You can even upload a process diagram, such as from Miro or Visio, and watch as the AI agent translates your flowchart into step-by-step instructions for building the workflow. Once you approve the instructions, the AI agent will start creating your customized, automated process.
A decade ago, drag-and-drop, no-code platforms simplified programming by letting you assemble programs with pre-built modules. The new era of self-serve programming goes beyond simplification, but replacing technical language with human, natural language.
It’s AI, not UI.
What this means for you: no more relying on IT and consultants to make important changes. Save time and money by creating and editing workflows on your own, and ensure that you’re responding to new risks and regulations as quickly and effectively as possible
Start with Certa: Intake & Orchestration
Our clients know us for our powerful orchestration engine and our “third party risk by exception” approach. Teams can automate what slows them down while monitoring what needs their attention.
Today, we’re adding a new section to our orchestra, and expanding our use cases beyond risk and compliance. Now, enterprises can use our scalable operating system starting at intake.
A business requestor fills out a form. Depending on the nature of their request, they’ll get routed to the corresponding function for approval. They’ll also be taken to the necessary screening and risk assessment processes.
The decision logic is completely based on your existing processes and requirements. The only difference is: Instead of relying on emails and spreadsheets, you’ll be leveraging one system for all your procurement, sourcing, and compliance activities. Ensure speed, efficiency, and transparency.
Manage Risk in the Deepest Layers of Your Supply Chain
Businesses are increasingly responsible for the actions of their suppliers; and their suppliers’ suppliers, and their suppliers’ suppliers’ suppliers… and so on.
But it’s difficult to map your supply chain risk without first understanding your supply chain.
That’s why we’re adding instruments to our orchestra and introducing Certa’s supply chain risk management (SCRM) solution. Certa’s n-tier mapping capabilities let you see exactly how your contractors and subcontractors are connected to one another.
When there’s a potential risk, such as a forced labor risk or location-based risk, Certa’s SCRM solution will provide you with a proposed remediation plan; for instance, swapping out a problematic tier 4 supplier with one that does not raise any alerts.
Certa’s SCRM solution takes you to the deepest levels of the supply chain to find the most hidden risks. In a regulatory environment where businesses are held responsible for the actions of their n-tier suppliers, it’s important to see exactly what supply chain risks your company is exposed to and how to effectively mitigate them
In short, we’re expanding the orchestra, and we’re handing you the conductor’s wand. Our third party operating system is intelligent, agile, comprehensive — the same as it’s always been — but with additional capabilities that enable companies to work better with one another.
