PCI Compliance
QBS successfully led the PCI Compliance program for Regis Corporation, a global leader in beauty salons, hair restoration centers and cosmetology education. QBS conducted a readiness assessment, defined the necessary remediation program, and led the development of the necessary controls and solutions to effectively meet the PCI Data Security Standard requirements and manage risk. QBS used a holistic, risk based approach to determine where gaps existed, the risk associated with those gaps and the most expedient, cost-effective strategy to achieve PCI DSS compliance. QBS developed and led the compliance program to identify and resolve the highest risk areas first with a particular focus on reducing scope. The result was a significant savings in time, effort and money. In addition, the foundation was laid for Regis Corp.’s on-going Governance, Risk, Compliance (GRC) program. QBS has been working with companies in the Twin Cities on PCI Compliance since 2006. The company’s PCI Compliance and Assessment Practice provides a proven five-step framework for organizations seeking to identify cost-effective solutions to manage risk and meet the requirements of the PCI Data Security Standard.

Distribution Process Efficiency

The solution integrated directly with the preferred distribution company, automatically managing the process of shipping product from warehouse to customer site. Because of this customer web portal, the manufacturer significantly increased their business.
