Herley Industries
Ensuring SOX Compliance and Driving Cultural Change for Business Improvement

For more than 40 years, Herley Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: HRLY) has supplied solid, innovative and sophisticated radio frequency (RF), microwave and millimeter wave components and subsystems to the defense and aerospace industries. Its clients include prime contractors, the U.S. government and governments and militaries worldwide.

The Outcome:

Aline’s web accessibility and well constructed format provided a secure place for both Herley and its auditor to conduct SOX compliance efforts with accuracy and integrity. Aline has made a huge difference for Herley. M&K has found the process so useful, it is encouraging other clients to look at Aline because it thinks it could make a big difference to others as well.

Leading Global Biopharmaceutical Outsourcing Organization
Reducing Key Controls through Standardization and Consolidation

While completing their first SOX attestation, one of the world’s largest biopharmaceutical outsourcing organizations with operations throughout 43 countries in 56 locations and approximately 6,200 employees, knew that building and maintaining a Sarbanes-Oxley compliance program presented challenges — unearthing and solving the issues that stood in the way of compliance and managing the myriad of spreadsheets and documents that are needed for the task.

The Outcome:

After one day of training and just a few weeks to get data uploaded properly, the Company's internal SOX compliance group took on Year 2 of SOX with the Aline platform as the backbone. In only months, the Company was able to reduce the number of key controls by approximately 40 percent and was able to change a fragmented approach to create standardized controls while managing the information across all regions from a central point.

Looking into the future, the Company is using Aline's compliance analytics to delve more deeply into framework optimization opportunities and is excited about the possibilities to further improve their SOX program.
