Kopenhagen (Dänemark), 19.05.2026 – Die europäische GRC-Plattform Formalize kooperiert ab sofort mit UNE, dem offiziellen spanischen Ableger der internationalen Normierungsorganisation ISO. Die Vereinbarung ermöglicht die direkte Einbindung der ISO-Standards in die Plattform. Damit verringern Unternehmen den Prüfaufwand für die Einhaltung der Standards, der durch Updates von Normen und unternehmensweit verteilten Dokumenten entsteht.

Introduction

For most compliance teams, managing ISO standards has meant juggling PDFs, spreadsheets, and manual interpretation of dense regulatory language. The standard lives in one place; the evidence of compliance in another; the internal expertise somewhere else entirely. For smaller teams without a dedicated compliance function, that gap is hard to close.


Through this collaboration, Formalize is embedding the official ISO standards directly into its platform. This eliminates the long-standing friction of external procurement and "proof-of-purchase" audits, allowing organizations to access official frameworks in a native, actionable format.

About Formalize

Formalize is a European operational GRC platform used by 8,000+ companies across 15 million seats. The partner network includes 900+ consultancies and law firms. Offices in Aarhus, Copenhagen, Milan, Munich, and Madrid.

"While PDF standards are essential for information, they weren't designed for daily operational execution. Our platform turns requirements into action by ensuring the system and the standard speak the same language. Being selected to develop advanced GRC tools with input from an official ISO/IEC representative is the strongest possible confirmation that we got it right,”
