Abstract: 
Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) is an emerging study embedding the importance of each element of the GRC and its strength in managing the organization and its sustainability. It becomes almost unavoidable to not have such a system in place. However, having it, can be costly and not efficient if the organizational system is not mature enough or financially stable enough to sustain the implementation and continuity of the GRC. The research investigates GRC systems in depth by (a) reviewing the literature on existing GRC frameworks, and (b) presenting a field study on GRC framework application in industries and organizations. The aim of this exploratory study is to understand the aspects and the nature of the GRC system following an enterprise systems approach. The result of this study is a framework of GRC characteristics that need to be taken into consideration when these systems are put in place. Structurally, this research was done based on the analysis, it is highlighted
