Abstract: Abstract The obligation to conform to environmental regulations requires from companies a set of diverse tasks. A classification of these tasks into central tasks, collaborative tasks, and departmental tasks is proposed and corresponding examples are described. Then, an overview is given of state-of-the-art ICT support approaches for central tasks that are usually performed by cross-departmental compliance managers. The overview includes traditional ICT-support approaches but also advanced approaches that attempt to offer smart and active assistance to compliance managers. Furthermore, the future perspective of ICT support approaches for compliance management are described considering recent ICT advancements.
