High Water's services team is lead by Steve Biskie, one of the most sought-after speakers, trainers and consultants in the governance, audit, and internal controls arena, particularly for organizations running complex software application systems like Oracle and SAP.  Throughout his career of more than 20 years, he has excelled at helping others in the audit and GRC space better understand the risks and opportunities and helped over 50% of the Fortune 100.  

Steve has worked with most major ERP application systems, and is internationally-recognized as an expert in SAP risks and controls.  He is consistently rated as a top speaker at the SAP GRC conference (a collaboration between SAP and SAP Insider), and over the last nine consecutive years, has presented more compliance and audit-related topics at these events than any other speaker.  He was an Expert Reviewer for the 2009 publication Security, Audit, and Control Features:  SAP ERP (3rd Edition), and in 2010 published his own book through SAP Press entitled Surviving an SAP Audit.
