Overview
This Innosuisse project addresses a critical challenge faced by many Swiss companies: the growing need to increase the strategic value and return on investment (ROI) of compliance activities. Although compliance expenditures are growing, most companies lack the necessary tools to effectively strengthen the business impact of their compliance efforts. Consequently, compliance is often viewed as a cost center rather than a function that generates value. At the same time, valuable data, both structured and unstructured, remains underutilized. This project bridges the gap between compliance investments and measurable business outcomes by leveraging AI and data-driven analytics.
The core objective is to innovate success-oriented Compliance KPIs and to develop a prototype of an AI-assisted, real-time monitoring dashboard that will empower Swiss companies to achieve success-oriented compliance. The project will deliver:
1. A validated set of Compliance Key Performance Indicators (CKPIs) linked to business outcomes;
2. An interactive prototype dashboard enabling real-time monitoring of CKPIs;
3. A certifiable reporting methodology that links compliance to strategic and financial performance;
4. A training framework and a practical guide tailored to the needs of Swiss SMEs.
The solution is designed in close collaboration with leading implementation partners from different industries. These partners will co-develop, test, and apply the tools in real-world settings to the extent possible, ensuring broad applicability and immediate relevance. The business case forecasts revenue and efficiency gains across participating organizations within a five-year period. By equipping companies with actionable insights, this project will reposition compliance as a strategic enabler of ethical, transparent, and sustainable business practices, contributing meaningfully to Switzerland’s economic and societal goals.
