As a newly listed public company, QuadraMed, Inc., needed to get up and running quickly on a solution for compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley. QuadraMed standardized on PeopleSoft Enterprise Financial Management, leveraging the internal controls and best practices built into the applications to prepare for listing on the American Stock Exchange and ongoing compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley. An early filer, QuadraMed also deployed PeopleSoft Enterprise Internal Controls Enforcer to meet its year-end deadline for Section 404 compliance.
