The Challenge
- I need to ensure our products meet current, stringent environmental compliance legislation, as well as be prepared for regulatory changes coming down the line.
- Working across multiple industries, from aerospace to life sciences and from energy to consumer electronics, we need to interpret the applicability of regulatory changes to NI’s product portfolio and develop systems to ensure we are compliant.
- It may not be obvious, but companies spend a significant amount of time assessing the same law, which wastes time and resources.

C2P is a compliance and market access software platform that provides reliable legislative information, insights, and actions, to help clients get products to market faster, while ensuring they are compliant with all relevant regulatory requirements.
- With C2P, NI receives daily email alerts on topics of interest, and alerts can be shared with other members of the organization
- C2P assessments ensure NI can see whether a new piece of legislation is relevant
- C2P provides expert commentary from legal specialists and serves as a single resource for compliance legal developments

The Benefits
- Because of the way C2P structures the information, it provides the ability to monitor, track, and assess different portions of laws, and their applicability, across various portions of the organization.
- For instance, C2P allows reviewing a law at a low level, forwarding questions to our legal team, tracking all conversations along with the law, and storing that data in one location.
- C2P prevents repeated assessing of the same law, and provides the ability to track laws as they evolve through legislative bodies globally.
C2P secures preservation of our corporate compliance knowledge in one place.

- We can monitor the alerts and react in time, across our whole business, to meet new requirements.
- Building on this, the C2P management tools allow us to evaluate legislation just once and document it. Anytime we have questions, C2P serves as our single source for these assessments.
