A Governance Engine Built Inside Business Central
Structured workflows. Automated controls. Embedded evidence. AWH GRC gives Business Central the governance layer it needs — without external systems or data duplication.
Built for CFOs, COOs, and compliance leaders who need their ERP to prove its own governance.
From Workflow Design to Audit-Ready Evidence
Six stages that transform fragmented ERP controls into structured internal governance. Each step builds on the last to create a complete, auditable system.
Define the Workflow
Create governance, risk, or compliance processes with structured stages. Each workflow captures its purpose, scope, and expected duration — version-controlled from day one.
Assign Ownership
Define responsible users and departments for each stage. Everyone knows exactly who is accountable, who must approve, and who is notified when something is overdue.
Enforce Entity Controls
Automatically block, restrict, or release records at defined milestones. Multiple workflows can run simultaneously on the same entity, each enforcing its own governance rules in real time.
Monitor Deadlines & SLAs
Configure durations in working hours, business days, or calendar days. Detect overdue tasks before they become audit findings. Compare configured targets against actual execution times.
Capture Evidence Automatically
Every action is logged with who did it, when, and why — linked directly to the Business Central records it governs. Evidence is generated as a by-product of daily operations.
Analyze & Continuously Improve
Use common stages and versioning to compare execution times across workflows. Identify bottlenecks, optimize control points, and demonstrate continuous improvement to auditors.
Before AWH GRC vs. After AWH GRC
See the difference a native governance layer makes across every dimension of internal control.
Manual checklists and trust-based compliance
Automated entity rules that block, restrict, or release records in real time
Weeks of manual evidence collection from emails, screenshots, and spreadsheets
Evidence generated automatically as a by-product of daily operations
Unclear responsibility — "everyone is responsible" means no one is
Explicit ownership mapped to every stage, user, and department
Static, disconnected SOPs in separate document libraries
Integrated SOPs living inside the ERP workflows, where work happens
Risks discovered after they materialize; reactive firefighting
Real-time SLA monitoring with proactive alerts and escalation
Define, Version & Control Every Process
Move beyond informal process definitions. AWH GRC gives you a structured, versioned repository of every governance workflow — with clear ownership, task sequencing, and benchmarking built in.
Process Definition & Versioning
Create structured workflows with full version history. Compare execution across versions and track changes over time.
Common Stage Benchmarking
Reuse common stages across workflows to benchmark execution time and identify optimization opportunities.
Clear Accountability Mapping
Every stage maps to a responsible user, department, and escalation path. No ambiguity about who owns what.
Structured Task Sequencing
Define prerequisite relationships between stages. Ensure tasks execute in the correct order with proper controls.
Monitor Risks Where They Happen
Stop managing risk in disconnected spreadsheets. AWH GRC embeds risk-based controls directly into your ERP workflows, so you detect issues in real time — not weeks after the fact.
Risk-Based Workflow Design
Design workflows around identified risks. Higher-risk processes get more control points and stricter deadlines.
SLA & Deadline Monitoring
Track real-time SLA compliance across all active workflows. Visual dashboards highlight which processes need attention.
Overdue Detection & Alerts
Missed deadlines are flagged in the process list and calendar. Overdue tasks are instantly visible so issues surface before they become findings.
Bottleneck & Failure Visibility
See exactly where processes stall. Identify recurring bottlenecks and address root causes proactively.
Evidence as a By-Product of Operations
Stop producing compliance evidence as a separate exercise. With AWH GRC, every approval, every decision, and every milestone generates its own audit trail — automatically, without extra effort.
Process-Level Audit Trail
Complete, tamper-resistant record of every action taken within each workflow — who, when, what, and why.
Change Log Integration
Visibility into Business Central's native change log data directly within the governance context of each process.
Structured Approval Evidence
Approvals are captured with full context: the approver, the decision, the timestamp, and the record affected.
Framework Compatibility
Feature-aligned with leading governance, risk, and compliance frameworks: COSO, SOX, ISO, and ESG reporting governance expectations under CSRD/ESRS.
Native Integration With the Microsoft Ecosystem
No duplicated databases. No disconnected compliance systems. AWH GRC works with the tools your team already uses every day.
Business Central Approvals
Native integration with BC's approval workflow engine. Governance decisions flow through familiar interfaces.
User Tasks
Leverage the built-in User Task system for task assignment and tracking within the Role Center.
Email Notifications
Configurable email alerts for deadlines, escalations, and approvals keep stakeholders informed without extra tools.
Power Automate
Connect workflows to the broader Microsoft ecosystem. Trigger automated actions based on governance events.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Architecture
AWH GRC runs entirely within Business Central's security perimeter. Your data never leaves your ERP.
SaaS Cloud Architecture
Deployed as a native Business Central extension on Microsoft's Azure cloud infrastructure. No separate servers to manage.
Native BC Extension
Runs entirely within Business Central's security model. Uses your existing permissions, authentication, and access controls.
No External Data Duplication
All data stays inside your Business Central database. No sensitive information is copied to third-party systems.
ERP-Resident Evidence
Audit evidence lives alongside the transactions it documents. No reconciliation between separate compliance and ERP systems.
