Prodiance and FCTS Consulting Help French Firms Increase Transparency with New Spreadsheet GRC Solution

 
 
San Ramon, Calif. and Paris, France - February 4, 2009 - Prodiance Corporation, a leading provider of Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) software solutions, and FCTS Consulting, France's first spreadsheet engineering services and software specialty company, today announced a formal partnership and comprehensive GRC solution to automate internal controls for mission critical spreadsheets, Access databases, and other end-user computing (EUC) applications. The joint solution combines best of breed technology from Prodiance with professional services and domain expertise from FCTS Consulting to help firms in France increase transparency and drive sustainable compliance.

"Prodiance delivers a comprehensive, enterprise class software solution to help organizations establish the proper safeguards and controls over mission critical spreadsheets and EUCs," said Sébastien Troszczynski, general director and co-founder of FCTS Consulting. "We are the first mover in the French market for Spreadsheet Control Software, and are very excited to be partnering with a market leader such as Prodiance."
