Built for compliance program effectiveness
The DOJ no longer asks whether a program is in place – it asks whether it prevents misconduct and changes behavior. EQS gives compliance leaders the unified ecosystem and documented evidence to answer that question with confidence.

COMPLIANCE COCKPIT
Complete oversight.
One partner.
EQS Compliance Cockpit integrates every critical compliance workstream into a single platform, so your program tells one coherent, defensible story.
The ground has shifted.
Has your program kept up?
Three forces are reshaping what ‘good’ looks like for US compliance programs right now
Regulatory fragmentation
The DOJ ECCP, EU Whistleblower Directive, Sapin II, and UK Bribery Act each carry distinct obligations. Managing their interplay through manual processes isn’t just inefficient, it’s a liability.
The efficacy mandate
The DOJ’s ECCP has moved beyond activity metrics. Training completion rates don’t satisfy prosecutors anymore. Evidence that your program shapes real decisions and prevents misconduct does.
The silo problem
Hotline data, COI disclosures, and policy attestations in separate systems fragment your risk picture – making it impossible to demonstrate a culture of integrity to regulators, investors, and employees.
EQS was built to solve all three.
SPEAK-UP PROGRAM
Most speak-up programs collect reports.
Few can prove what they did with them.
When the DOJ evaluates a speak-up program, it isn’t counting reports — it’s looking for documented evidence that disclosures were triaged consistently, investigated thoroughly, and resolved in ways that demonstrably influenced your program. Most programs can’t show that trail, not because the work didn’t happen, but because the infrastructure wasn’t built to capture it.
Integrity Line is engineered around that evidentiary gap — from the employee experience of reporting to the investigator experience of resolving — so every case builds toward a defensible record of program effectiveness.
Configurable without the cost
Compliance teams can adapt intake flows, routing logic, and case workflows directly, without professional services engagements or delayed SOW cycles. Your program stays current as your organization evolves.
Built for global regulatory complexity
Integrity Line is a modern helpline architected around the specific requirements of the DOJ ECCP, EU Whistleblower Directive, Sapin II, and the UK Bribery Act, so multi-jurisdictional programs operate from a single, compliant infrastructure.
Intuitive, multi-channel intake in 80+ languages
Secure web, phone, and mobile reporting with integrated machine translation, so your team manages cross-border cases without leaving the secure environment.
AI-assisted transcription, classification, and metadata cleansing
Streamlines intake processing, routes cases to the right team instantly, and ensures attachments don’t inadvertently compromise investigation objectivity — reducing manual effort and keeping cases clean from the start.
Defensible documentation
Every case is logged in a secure, auditable environment that satisfies the specific evidentiary standard the DOJ’s ECCP and other global ethics and compliance standards require when evaluating whether a compliance program genuinely functions.
POLICIES
Policy management and accountability
Distribute the right policies to the right people and create a documented record that they were received and acknowledged — closing the gap between distribution and accountability.
- Targeted distribution by role, department, or geography eliminates company-wide noise.
- Attestations require employees to confirm comprehension, not just receipt.
- Automated escalation of incompletes to management in real-time to close gaps in your control environment.
APPROVALS
Disclosures: Conflicts of interest, gifts & hospitality
Replace spreadsheets and email chains with a structured disclosure workflow that is designed to mitigate organizational risk before it escalates.
- Mobile-optimized forms reduce friction and underreporting across global employee populations.
- Rules-based routing triggers approvals by value, disclosure type, role, and geography and more – automatically.
- Centralized risk visibility of every approval and denial, ready for regulatory or investigative review.
THIRD PARTIES
Third-Party Risk Management
Most global bribery and corruption violations originate outside your organization. Extend your compliance program to where regulators increasingly expect oversight.
- Risk-tiered vendor lifecycle management from onboarding to continuous monitoring.
- Configurable anti-bribery and anti-corruption screening workflows consolidated across your global portfolio.
- Integrated screening and monitoring data providing an efficient and defensible process for ongoing third-party oversight.
INSIGHTS
Compliance analytics and insights
Consolidate compliance activity across modules into real-time dashboards that serve your team, your board, and your regulators.
- Cross-platform visibility — case data, attestations, and disclosures in one view provides a comprehensive risk picture.
- Real-time statistics and KPIs including substantiation rates, case volume, and resolution timelines – to track program performance against internal benchmarks.
- Your compliance data stays yours — fully portable for integration with existing BI and analytics tools, and ready to surface in board reporting without manual assembly.
