Institutional Compliance Program
Overview
Institutional Compliance at Stanford is the responsibility of a number of different organizations with oversight residing under the Executive Director of Internal Audit and Institutional Compliance.
This website describes an initiative to develop a matrix compliance program which connects these different components, coordinates their operations and represents the University's institutional perspective. The goals of the initiative include:
- Coordinate the University's compliance assurance activities (laws, regulations, contractual requirements)
- Ensure the institutional perspective is always present
- Assess existing programs against Federal Sentencing Guidelines characteristics of "ideal" compliance program, and improve as necessary (the "Matrix" of the Plan)
- Implement "early warning" program for emerging compliance issues
- Carry out specific compliance support activities
What you will find here includes a comprehensive lists of offices and cognizant officers responsible for compliance within a given area. In addition, references to relevant policies are provided.
Information on the Stanford University Hospitals' Compliance Program is available on the web.
