MHP Consulting & OneTrust form strategic partnership

MHP Consulting has announced a strategic partnership with OneTrust, a platform provider for compliance solutions that focuses on digital compliance across industries.

Digital compliance has emerged as a significant competitive factor in the evolving digital landscape. Laws and regulations such as the GDPR, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, and the EU AI Act require companies to strategically manage their data processes. MHP Consulting has partnered with OneTrust to address these needs and assist companies in efficiently implementing complex digital compliance requirements via a collaboration that merges consultancy and technology.

Markus Wambach, Group COO at MHP, highlighted the benefits of this partnership: "The partnership with OneTrust gives us the opportunity to make digital compliance holistic and future-proof. Together, we will enable companies to implement legal and regulatory requirements efficiently, minimise risk, and maximise the value of their data."

The alliance is globally oriented, initially focusing on Europe and North America. There is a high demand for digital compliance management solutions tailored to meet specific regulatory requirements. MHP's digital compliance competence centre provides services at the intersection of business and IT, offering a scalable solution that aligns with cost-sensitive business models.

MHP aims to leverage this partnership to extend comprehensive support for companies as they navigate digital transformation challenges. Daniel Andernach, Head of Digital Compliance & Product Governance at MHP, stated, "Thanks to our close cooperation with OneTrust and our consulting and service approach, we can provide even more comprehensive support to companies to help them tackle the compliance challenges associated with digital transformation – from strategy development to practical implementation."

Philipp Ruprich-Kienlein, Digital Compliance Manager at MHP, added, "Our basic principle is to comply with laws and seize opportunities. A specification-compliant data strategy opens up new potential for added value and reinforces the trust of customers and partners, thus creating optimum conditions for long-term business partnerships."

OneTrust places trust and expertise at the core of its partnerships, aiming to deliver responsible data handling solutions. Robert Sindlinger, Vice President DACH at OneTrust, remarked, "A strategic partnership with MHP is especially important for OneTrust. MHP has been successfully implementing digital innovations at numerous companies for many years. Other important factors are the steadily increasing legal requirements and people's clear expectations when it comes to dealing with their data. New solutions are called for, and we work together to offer our customers these."

The partnership is set to build upon existing concepts through shared insights and experiences. MHP and OneTrust work collaboratively to make these accessible to their clients and support them in achieving compliance effectively and individually.
