          Technologist, market diviner, entrepreneur, Niel Robertson, the
          co-founder and CTO of Newmerix, recognized a new market opportunity
          within packaged applications  and created a comprehensive application

 Why:     Organizations today are faced with the challenge of sustaining
          compliance of Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley. This includes
          demonstrating to their auditor the proper implementation and use of
          Internal Controls. But how can organizations meet the ever
          expanding expectations of their auditors considering time, people and
          budget restraints? Automation is the answer.
