Audit-Ready Without the Scramble

Compliance teams expect to be audit-ready. Reality? Contracts scattered across email, SharePoint chaos, vendor obligations untracked. Expectica IQ closes the gap—automatically tracking every contract, obligation, and compliance requirement before auditors ask.

The Compliance Expectation Gap

What you expect vs. what actually happens when auditors come knocking

You expect to be audit-ready. You're not.

Reality check:

  • Auditor asks: Show me all vendor data processing agreements
  • You scramble through email for 3 days
  • Find 80% of contracts, miss 20%
  • Audit finding: Incomplete vendor documentation

The gap: You expected complete records. Reality was scattered chaos.

You expect vendor compliance. You can't prove it.

Reality check:

  • SOC2 requires vendor security documentation
  • You have 47 vendors, only 23 security questionnaires on file
  • Can't prove when vendors were last reviewed
  • Compliance gap discovered during audit

The gap: You expected vendor compliance tracking. Reality was manual spreadsheets that went stale.

You expect regulatory obligations are tracked. They're not.

Reality check:

  • GDPR requires data retention limits
  • Customer contracts contain different retention periods (1 year, 3 years, 7 years)
  • Nobody's tracking which data to delete when
  • Regulatory violation risk

The gap: You expected automated obligation tracking. Reality was hope and prayer.

Close Compliance Gaps Before Auditors Find Them

Expectica IQ's DealTracer and SpendTracer agents work together to track compliance obligations across both customer contracts and vendor agreements

STEP 1

Complete Contract Repository (Automatically)

Unlike manual CLM tools that rely on people uploading contracts, Expectica IQ autonomously monitors M365/Google Workspace and captures EVERY contract:

Vendor agreements and MSAs
Data processing agreements (DPAs)
Security questionnaires and certifications
Customer contracts with data obligations
NDAs, BAAs, and compliance documentation

Result: 100% capture rate. Zero manual uploads. Always audit-ready.

STEP 2

Extract Compliance Obligations (AI-Powered)

Our AI reads every contract and extracts regulatory obligations:

Data retention requirements (Delete after 3 years)
Security obligations (Annual pen test required)
Compliance certifications (SOC2 Type II maintained)
Audit rights (Customer may audit annually)
Data processing terms (GDPR compliance required)

Result: Know every obligation across every contract—automatically.

STEP 3

Track Vendor Compliance (Proactive Alerts)

Expectica IQ doesn't just file contracts. We track whether vendor expectations are met:

COMPLIANCE GAP DETECTED

Vendor: Acme Cloud Services

Obligation: Annual SOC2 report required

Last report received: March 2024

Next report due: March 2025 (30 days from now)

Status: No new report received

Action: Request updated SOC2 report from vendor

Result: Proactive compliance tracking, not reactive audit scrambles.

Built for Compliance Teams

Features designed to close compliance gaps and eliminate audit surprises

Complete Contract Coverage

Traditional Approach:

  • Legal uploads contracts to CLM (maybe 60% captured)
  • Procurement uploads vendor agreements (maybe 40% captured)
  • Security uploads DPAs (maybe 50% captured)
  • Result: 40-60% contract coverage, massive compliance gaps

Expectica IQ Approach:

  • Monitors ALL email at admin level (100% capture)
  • Finds contracts Legal/Procurement/Security didn't upload
  • Discovers shadow IT vendor agreements nobody knew existed
  • Result: 100% contract coverage, complete audit trail

Automated Compliance Tracking

Instead of manual spreadsheets tracking vendor compliance, Expectica IQ automatically tracks:

When vendor security reviews are due
When DPAs need renewal
When compliance certifications expire
When audit rights can be exercised

Dashboard Shows:

42 vendors with current SOC2 reports
5 vendors with SOC2 reports expiring in 60 days
3 vendors missing required security documentation

Regulatory Obligation Management

Customer contracts contain data obligations:

"Delete customer data within 30 days of termination"
"Provide data export within 15 days of request"
"Maintain data only in US data centers"

Expectica IQ extracts these obligations and tracks compliance:

DATA DELETION DUE

Customer terminated 25 days ago

EXPORT DEADLINE

10 days remaining

DATA RESIDENCY

US-only requirement flagged

Audit-Ready Repository

Auditor asks: "Show me all vendor contracts with data processing terms"

Traditional Approach:

  • 3 days searching email, SharePoint, file shares
  • Hope you find everything
  • Manual review to identify which have DPA clauses

Expectica IQ Approach:

  • Instant search: "Show all vendor contracts with data processing agreements"
  • Results in 30 seconds
  • AI has already identified which contracts contain DPA terms
  • Export complete list with links to all contracts
