Corporate compliance group written assignment and presentation
You have been hired by the Exxon-Valdez Subsidiary as the Compliance Team from the Sawyer Business Consulting Firm to write a corporate compliance plan. You will then be required to present that plan to the company board of directors and management. This is a publicly traded company. This company that has just caused a major environmental oil spill and has low employee productivity as a result of past internal mismanagement and financial performance decisions. The company faces criminal investigation, civil lawsuits, and possibly bankruptcy. Your compliance plan must show regulators and stakeholders that the company has a new vision and internal controls to prevent these problems from recurring in the future.
The case study that you are using is in the Hosmer text at pp.146-162. Your consulting team should read the case study carefully. Using the sample corporate compliance plan from "HealthTronics" as a guide and the Department of Justice guidelines (both on blackboard and attached to the instructor handout package), prepare a 7-10 page Compliance Plan and prepare the presentation to the company board and management which will take place in-class. The plan should include a mission statement, statement of values, code of conduct statement, written standards and whatever other categories your team believes are required to deal with the many problems facing this company.
