How Looply supports actions for SAP GRC processes

Where Looply can support SAP GRC processes

Looply is particularly relevant where SAP GRC workflows need timely input from users outside the core access governance team. This is especially useful when the manager’s role is to confirm business need rather than perform detailed technical risk analysis.

Whether is it a SAP GRC workflow that needs timely input from users outside the core access governance team, an access request requiring a manager to confirm a business need, a remediation/mitigation control confirmation, or an access review campaign, Looply can help remind reviewers of assigned work and support faster completion by placing review tasks in a familiar collaboration channel.

Looply can notify a manager that an employee is waiting for access and present the approval task in Teams. 

For SoD-related access requests, Looply can help surface the additional approval or review step required from a business owner, role owner or control owner. The task can be presented as part of the workflow rather than becoming another item that has to be manually chased.

Across these examples, the same principle applies: when the process depends on business participation, Looply helps make that participation easier, and helps the GRC team keep open items moving toward closure.

The action layer around SAP GRC

SAP GRC provides the governance process. Looply improves engagement with the people who need to participate in that process.

That makes Looply an action layer around selected SAP GRC workflows. It helps route tasks into Microsoft Teams, present the relevant context, capture the response and keep the process moving.

This is a practical improvement rather than a theoretical one. The benefit is measured in approvals completed sooner, fewer stalled requests, fewer reminders, fewer forgotten tasks and better visibility of where action is still required.

For organisations already using Microsoft Teams as a central part of daily work, this is a natural extension of the access governance process.

Make the business step easier to complete

SAP GRC can identify and govern access risk, but access governance still depends on timely input from the business. If managers, role owners and control owners do not see or complete their tasks quickly, the process slows down.

Looply helps by bringing selected GRC-related actions into Microsoft Teams, where business users already work. That makes those tasks easier to see, easier to complete and easier to track.

SAP GRC finds the risk. Looply helps the business act and delivers the authentication to update SAP immediately.
