Take 10%out of G&A while increasing compliance,
without putting client service at risk.
Compliance built into the operating model, not bolted on after. Arch helps banks, asset managers, and insurers find duplicated work, vendor overlap, and operating-model drift — so finance leaders can reduce cost and produce defensible evidence for every decision.
The next phase of value creation is not announcing the deal. It is realizing the synergies.
Years of evolution have left teams and departments further apart than ever. Now their work will compound — duplicated controls, fragmented audit trails, overlapping vendors, and operating-model drift that quietly raises cost-to-income.
Most institutions reconstruct the operating model after the fact, from HRIS exports, GL line items, and procurement spreadsheets. Internal audit, risk committees, and regulators don't accept “we believe.” They accept evidence.
Arch is the system of record for how your operating model actually works. CFOs, COOs, and operating leaders see where complexity is driving cost — and every recommendation arrives with source data, approvals, exceptions, and rationale. From “we believe” to audit-ready, on one platform.
Where the next 10%of G&A reduction may sit.
Consolidation creates value when the transformation model catches up to the deal model.
“Find duplicated controls, overlapping vendors, and fragmented ownership that delay synergy capture and weaken audit trails.”
Faster integration and a path to G&A reduction.
AI and automation can absorb repeatable work — but only where the work is mapped clearly.
“See which roles and workflows can be automated without weakening controls or client coverage.”
Capacity returned to the business with controls intact.
Risk, compliance, and audit functions have grown — often without a clear operating model.
“Map work across 1LoD, 2LoD, and 3LoD to find overlap, gaps, and ownership ambiguity, and strengthen the audit trail behind every decision.”
Increased compliance with lower duplication across control functions.
Cost pressure is real, but reductions can quietly degrade coverage and client outcomes.
“See where skills, vendor support, and workforce capacity are misaligned before they become a client-service problem.”
Protect client service while controlling G&A growth.
Find the hidden G&A overlap behind your transformation model.
The headline programs are easy to track. The harder savings sit below the surface: duplicated control functions, fragmented audit trails, overlapping vendors, and skills bottlenecks that slow client delivery.
GL, HRIS, and procurement systems show cost centers, headcount, and spend. They don't show how work — or evidence — actually moves across business units, control functions, and outsourced partners.
Arch maps that operating complexity, strengthens the audit trail behind every decision, and identifies where G&A cost can come out safely.
Your control environment, as a graph.
Arch maps people, roles, controls, policies, vendors, and systems across business units and legal entities — so leaders see where work overlaps, where audit trails are fragmented, and where compliance can be strengthened as G&A comes out.
Reduce G&A complexity and increase compliance.
Arch helps banks, asset managers, and insurers see where cost can come out safely — with stronger audit trails, clearer controls, and protected client service.

AI-powered Workforce Operating Infrastructure
Arch connects workforce, vendor, role, and workflow data to show how work — and evidence — actually moves across business units and legal entities.
- Map work across business units, regions, and legal entities
- Identify duplicated work and vendor overlap
- Strengthen audit trails across 1LoD, 2LoD, and 3LoD
- Quantify cost reduction opportunities
- Prioritize actions by financial impact and regulatory risk
- Track progress from diagnosis to execution
The Arch Super Audit
A focused diagnostic to show where the next 10% of G&A reduction may sit. We look for:
- G&A overlap across business units and entities
- Duplicated external vendor and managed-service spend
- Gaps and overlap in audit trails across 1LoD, 2LoD, and 3LoD
- Roles and workflows ready for automation
- Skills bottlenecks affecting client service
- Areas where cost can come out while compliance improves
From diagnosis to deployment
Once the opportunity is clear, Arch builds the infrastructure to capture it — with an audit trail that holds up to internal audit and the regulator.
- G&A reduction
- Audit-trail and controls strengthening
- Role automation and operating-model design
- Vendor and managed-service spend optimization
- Post-consolidation execution
Strengthen compliance and protect client service while reducing G&A.
If you're integrating acquisitions, hitting a cost-to-income target, automating roles, or rationalizing vendors and managed services, Arch can help identify the next 10% — with an audit trail that holds up.
