Case Study: WorkJam turns GRC into a business accelerator with Vanta

How WorkJam turned GRC from a roadblock to business accelerator

WorkJam, a Montreal-based workflow automation company with 250+ employees, needed to modernize its manual, fragmented GRC processes as it scaled beyond startup mode. Using Vanta, WorkJam’s small security team struggled to keep up with SOC 2 audits, vendor oversight, and compliance requirements like GDPR, ISO 27001, and ISO 27017, while also lacking a single source of truth to connect security work with the broader engineering organization.

With Vanta’s continuous GRC automation, Access Reviews, Vendor Risk Management, and Trust Center, WorkJam centralized compliance, improved collaboration, and turned security into a business asset. The results were significant: compliance checks dropped to about one hour per week instead of seven to eight, vendor risk management saved 100+ hours annually, and the team now saves three to four hours per vendor each year. Vanta’s Trust Center also helped support sales by showcasing WorkJam’s security posture to prospects and customers.
