GRC Toolbox

GRC Toolbox is an integrated governance, risk and compliance software developed in Switzerland by GRC Partners and promoted as a “Swiss made” solution. It addresses the difficulties organisations experience when managing risks, internal controls, compliance obligations, information security and data protection through separate spreadsheets and documents, which leads to duplication, inconsistent assessments and limited oversight at management level. GRC Toolbox’s approach is to provide a modular platform in which these disciplines share a common data model and methodology, so that risks, controls, measures and responsibilities are linked and can be analysed together. This integrated view helps boards, management and specialists understand their organisation’s exposure and demonstrate compliance to regulators, auditors and other stakeholders.

Modules cover enterprise risk management, internal control systems, compliance management, information security management aligned with ISO 27001, data protection management for GDPR and Swiss data protection law, business continuity management, and audit management. Users can maintain risk registers, carry out assessments with configurable scales, define controls and measures, assign responsibilities and track deadlines through workflows and notifications. Standard frameworks and content packages help organisations get started, while dashboards, heat maps and reports provide oversight for different audiences. The software supports multiple languages and multi-entity structures, making it suitable for groups operating across several countries. GRC Toolbox is available as a cloud service hosted in Switzerland or for on-premises installation, which appeals to organisations with strict data residency requirements. Its target customers include small and mid-sized enterprises, financial institutions, insurers, healthcare providers, public administrations, energy companies and industrial firms, particularly in the DACH region. Its modular structure lets organisations start with a single discipline and extend coverage over time. Pricing starts from around USD 4,900, likely per year, with a free trial; there is no free version in this listing.
