Configuration as code enables organisations to manage compliance configuration such as rules, thresholds, workflows, and decision logic using version-controlled code rather than manual changes in user interfaces. This approach brings greater discipline, transparency, and governance to how compliance systems are configured and maintained.

Within the Facctum platform, configuration as code supports solutions such as Customer Screening, Payment Screening, and Transaction Monitoring, helping teams implement changes safely and consistently across environments.

Why Configuration As Code Is Needed

Compliance systems often require frequent configuration updates to reflect regulatory change, risk appetite adjustments, or operational optimisation. When these changes are made manually, organisations can face increased error risk, limited traceability, and inconsistent behaviour across environments.

Configuration as code addresses this challenge by enabling structured, repeatable changes that can be reviewed, tested, and approved before deployment.

How Configuration As Code Works

Configuration as code works by expressing compliance rules, thresholds, and workflows in a structured, machine-readable format. These configurations are stored in version control systems, allowing teams to track changes, compare versions, and roll back when necessary.

Changes can be tested in controlled environments before being promoted to production, reducing operational risk and improving reliability.

What Makes Facctum’s Approach Different

Facctum’s configuration as code capability is designed specifically for regulated environments. Configuration changes are transparent, auditable, and aligned with governance processes, supporting separation of duties and approval workflows.

This approach allows organisations to adapt quickly without sacrificing control or regulatory confidence.

Where Configuration As Code Is Used

Configuration as code is applied in scenarios such as:

• Updating screening rules and thresholds

• Managing decision logic across environments

• Supporting regulatory change implementation

• Coordinating changes across multiple teams or regions

These use cases benefit from reduced error rates and improved oversight.

How Configuration As Code Fits Into The Platform

Configuration as code integrates with other platform capabilities such as API-first architecture, explainable scoring, probability-based decisioning, and audit logging. It provides a consistent foundation for controlled change management across the platform.

This integration ensures that configuration updates align with operational and compliance requirements.
