Workiva, a business software company, has announced a partnership with accounting tax, and consulting services firm, Frazier & Deeter, to complement Wdesk implementation for the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and risk management.
“This partnership will help our customers control collaboration, improve financial transparency and mitigate enterprise risk,” Workiva Chairman and CEO Matt Rizai said in a statement.
