After a period of little regulation, many companies are now facing a growing number and an increasing complexity of new laws, regulations, and standards. This has a huge impact on how organizations conduct their daily business and involves various changes in organizational and governance structures, software systems and data flows as well as corporate culture, organizational power and communication. We argue that the implementation of a holistic compliance cannot be divided into isolated projects, but instead requires a thorough analysis of relevant components as well as an integrated design of the very same. This paper examines the state-of-the-art of compliance research in the field of information systems (IS) by means of a comprehensive literature analysis. For the systemization of our results we apply a holistic framework for enterprise analysis and design. The framework allows us to both point out “focus areas” as well as “less travelled roads” and derive a future research agenda for compliance research.Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-642-01862-6_15
