6. 6 The Pro’s and Con’s of Technology (The Cost / Benefit Analysis) 1.Problem statement Determine the issue/what is the “ask” 2.Scope Don’t boil the ocean 3.Current vs. Future state Develop a vision of implementation and future development Technology acquisition should have a 3-5 year outlook 4.Build vs Buy Understand the marketplace Build only when it’s necessary

7. 7 Identification of a Solution & Vendor Due Diligence Partner early and often With your clients and users Build consensus and vision on goals, scope and deliverables Reach out to other compliance colleagues and firms for input and experiences of others Vendor references Service quality Understanding of the industry Understand regulatory expectations for the technology Participate in user forums Provides a birds-eye view into issues other clients are experiencing Understand the vendor’s capabilities and roadmaps Don’t forget cybersecurity Don’t believe everything the vendor sales people tell you Your own due diligence is the most powerful tool

8. 8 Implementation Do’s and Don’ts Do’s Create a steering committee of stakeholders Users, managers, executives and technology Identify leaders who could be champions of the technology Develop and share a roadmap with reasonable timelines and deliverables The project and plan needs an owner Have a strong roll out plan to users to gain acceptance and early usage Lean on your champions to help drive adoption Ensure you have planned for scalability, performance and availability Ensure your data quality is high Partner early with vendor Experience with the best use of the technology and its implementation

9. 9 Implementation Do’s and Don’ts (cont.) Dont’s “Forum shop” with all clients/users (some have personal agendas, etc.) Lose focus on what is in scope. Avoid and eliminate “scope creep” Surprise your technology team Leave out internal audit – what will they want from the system? Give away proprietary information (be sure you have an NDA in place) Don’t just throw it out there

10. 10 Real Time Monitoring / Exception Reports and Reporting What reports do you need and when do you need them? How does the reporting dovetail with your existing policies and procedures? Can the reporting system: Red Flag key issues? Escalate? How are reports distributed and can you track if they were reviewed? Custom reports – are they worth the effort?

11. 11 Real Life Issues Data sourcing and data quality Data retention Regulatory issues and changes Implementation problems Mismatched product to planned use Poor adoption Misunderstanding the industry Planning for sunsetting the technology

12. 12 Ongoing Assessment & Takeaways Are your compliance systems still scalable? Updates from IT/vendors Business changes & requests Regulatory changes Data management & retention Cyber security issues Ongoing support and costs Is it still the right solution?
