At GlobalSuite Solutions, we believe great GRC software is never truly finished. As risks, regulations, and threats evolve, our platform evolves with them. That is why more than 2,000 organizations in over 30 countries trust GlobalSuite® to manage Risk, Security, Compliance, Business Continuity, Audit, Privacy, TPRM, and ESG from a single tool.
Today we take another step in that evolution with Quantum, the new stage of the product focused on making the platform more modern, intelligent, and proactive. Following advances in document management, inventory, compliance, and artificial intelligence, Automations arrives: a cross-cutting capability that will change how your team works day to day.
The goal is simple: move from recording information to acting on it—automatically, while maintaining full traceability for every decision.
Your GRC team’s day-to-day, without repetitive tasks
Even with good GRC software, some tasks still consume hours every week: notifying the owner when something critical changes, launching a survey after a change, linking controls one by one, coordinating multiple teams when the same change impacts different areas… Multiply those tasks across all your organization’s processes, risks, and suppliers, and you will understand why traditional GRC ends up taking more time than it should.
Automations is designed to free your teams from four recurring friction points:
Less repetitive work
Your team stops wasting time on notifications, survey launches, and routine updates.
Consistent processes
The same workflow runs the same way every time, without depending on who is available that day.
Connected areas
A change in Risk can trigger tasks in Business Continuity or notify TPRM without email coordination.
Full visibility
Every automated action is logged: who, when, and with what outcome. Effortless auditing.
The result is a more proactive GRC: when something relevant changes in your organization, GlobalSuite® reacts automatically and notifies the right people. Your team focuses on what adds value, not on moving information from one place to another.
How it works: trigger, conditions, branches, and actions
The module is built on a visual rule builder designed for business users. Each automation is created by chaining four simple blocks that you combine according to the workflow you want to automate:
Trigger
The event that fires the rule: creating or updating a risk, a process, a supplier, or a critical asset.
Conditions
Filters you define: "only if the risk becomes high", "only if the supplier is critical", "only if the owner changes"…
Branches
Different paths within the same rule. They allow you to react differently depending on which condition is met.
Actions
What GlobalSuite® does for you: notify, launch a survey, assign controls, open an action plan, or create an impact analysis.
A single rule can combine multiple conditions, branches, and actions, executed in the order you choose. And to speed up go-live, the module includes configurable templates with the most common scenarios: in just a few clicks, you can have your first automation up and running.
Can you imagine how many hours your team would save by automating these workflows?
Talk to a GRC expert →Real-world scenarios: what your team no longer has to do manually
The best way to understand the impact of Automations is to see what stops being manual work in day-to-day operations. Here are some of the more than fifteen scenarios it covers from day one:
You register a new supplier or critical asset
GlobalSuite® automatically associates it with its risk analysis, links the corresponding threats and controls, and notifies the owner. What used to take you half an afternoon now happens in seconds.
A risk increases and exceeds the acceptable threshold
The platform generates an action plan and suggests the appropriate controls from the catalog, without waiting for the next monthly review.
A supplier’s criticality changes
The corresponding assessment is launched automatically and the owners are notified. No reminder emails, no manual follow-up.
A key business process is modified
GlobalSuite® triggers the corresponding impact analysis and sends the survey to the owner to reflect the change in the business continuity plan.
A survey updates the impact analysis
The information is automatically transferred to the consolidated view and the owner receives a notification. No more manual copying between records.
The owner of a risk changes
The new owner is notified immediately, and the entire reassignment is logged with its history for future audits.
And these are only the priority cases. Any recurring workflow in your organization is a candidate to become an automation: classifications, review launches, links between similar items, coordination between areas… If you do it more than once, you can probably automate it.
Automation, yes—but with full control
A common question when discussing GRC automation is: what if I lose control of what is happening? With GlobalSuite®, that does not happen. Every automation includes a complete activity log, designed so your team—and your auditor—always know what the platform did and why:
- When each rule was triggered and on which item.
- Which conditions were evaluated and with what result.
- Which actions were executed and in what order.
- If there were errors or incidents, with full detail for review.
If an action fails, the main data remains intact and the incident is logged for review. Nothing is lost; everything is auditable. This way, you combine the speed of automation with the security your regulatory framework requires.
Before and after in your team’s day-to-day
If your organization still manages GRC with spreadsheets, emails, and disconnected tools, or if your current software forces you to struggle with every change, this is the operational leap you will see:
Before
- Manually notifying every time a critical data point changes.
- Launching surveys manually after each process change.
- Linking controls one by one from the catalog.
- Coordinating Risk and Business Continuity via email and meetings.
- Manually reconstructing the history when the audit arrives.
With Automations
- Automatic notifications to the right owner, instantly.
- Surveys and reviews that trigger automatically when due.
- Controls linked in bulk according to the rules you define.
- Connected areas across modules without human intervention.
- A complete, exportable audit log in one click.
And, in addition, a Marketplace with more than 275 connectors
Automations does not arrive alone. This same release also expands the GlobalSuite® integrations Marketplace with the addition of more than 275 additional connectors, so the platform can connect to an even broader ecosystem of corporate tools, security solutions, identity systems, databases, and SaaS applications.
The Marketplace now covers areas such as cybersecurity and technology risk (Tenable, SecurityScorecard, SIEM), identity and access governance (Entra ID, Active Directory, LDAP), databases, cloud and data lake (Amazon S3, Azure Blob, BigQuery, Snowflake), ITSM and DevOps (Jira, ServiceNow, GitHub), monitoring and analytics (Datadog, CloudWatch), enterprise messaging, and advanced search and AI use cases. The result: less custom development, faster go-live, and expanded use cases in TPRM, GRC, audit, cybersecurity, and corporate reporting.
Quantum’s evolution continues
That is our commitment to every customer: GlobalSuite® is a living platform. Every quarter we add improvements, new features, and new areas. You are not buying a product; you are adopting a solution that evolves with your organization and the market.
Frequently asked questions
What is GlobalSuite® and who is it for?
GlobalSuite® is the GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance) management platform from GlobalSuite Solutions, used by more than 2,000 organizations in over 30 countries. It enables unified management of Risk, Security, Compliance, Business Continuity, Audit, Privacy, Supplier Management, and ESG from a single tool. It is designed for mid-sized and large organizations in any sector, especially those operating under frameworks such as ISO 27001, ISO 22301, ENS, NIS2, DORA, or GDPR.
What exactly does the Automations module add to my day-to-day?
It saves you the most time-consuming repetitive work in GRC: notifying owners, launching surveys, linking controls, coordinating areas… When something relevant changes in your organization, the platform reacts automatically and leaves a full trace for audit purposes. The result is a more productive team, more consistent processes, and less room for human error.
Who on my team can create automations?
Automations is designed for business users: Risk, Compliance, Business Continuity, or Supplier Management owners can create their own rules in the visual builder by chaining triggers, conditions, branches, and actions. The platform includes configurable templates and step-by-step guides to speed up go-live.
How long does it take to implement GlobalSuite® in an organization?
One of the key differences between GlobalSuite® and other market solutions is its speed of implementation: we are talking weeks, not months or years. Our team supports you through initial configuration, data migration, and training, and your team starts generating value from the earliest phases. Each project has its own plan, but the platform’s flexibility allows it to adapt to each reality without custom development.
How does Automations fit if I am not yet a customer?
If you are considering renewing your GRC approach or replacing spreadsheets and disconnected tools, Automations is another reason to consider GlobalSuite®. However, the decision is never based on a single feature: we invite you to a personalized demo where we show you how the entire platform would fit your organization, which areas we would cover first, and what return you can expect.
Is it safe to automate critical processes such as Risk or Business Continuity?
Yes—and traceability is the key. Every automation logs when it was triggered, which conditions were evaluated, which actions were executed, and whether there were any incidents. If an action fails, the main data remains intact and the error is recorded for review. You combine the speed of automation with the control and auditability your regulatory framework requires.
Does GlobalSuite® evolve with the market and with my organization?
Yes. Our product philosophy is based on continuous evolution: we regularly add new features, listen to our customers, and adapt to regulatory and market changes. Automations is one of this year’s releases, and many more are coming. When you choose GlobalSuite®, you choose a platform that grows with you.
Which plans include Automations?
The Automations module is available with Enterprise licensing or higher. If you would like to understand how it would fit your organization and which plan best suits your needs, contact our team and we will advise you with no obligation.
