Keep one joined-up view of service, programme and corporate risks, linked to assurance and audit actions, owners, due dates and evidence. Exceptions route into the right forums through clear escalation rules, keeping oversight decision-led and closure disciplined.
Risk registers can become static lists while assurance actions sit across spreadsheets, emails and committee papers. A single operating record links risks to actions, owners, due dates and evidence, so scrutiny and executive forums focus on exceptions, decisions and closure.
Used by teams who need risk and assurance to be proportionate, visible and follow-through disciplined, especially where scrutiny and audit require a clean trail.
Inputs
We start from what you already have and standardise the minimum required to make it governable.
Your current headline risks so we begin from today’s risk landscape, not a blank register.
Outputs
One register with clear ownership, current status and a traceable review trail—run through your governance cadence.
A consistent structure (service/programme/corporate) and trigger rules that define what surfaces, when, and to whom.
Actions linked to owners, due dates and closure evidence so follow-through is measurable and visible.
A clear view of actions, ageing, and escalation—kept aligned to assurance plans and governance forums.
Clear routing so the right forum sees the right items without rework or re-packaging.
Concise pack sections showing top risks, exceptions, mitigation status, ageing actions and decisions required.
Configuration
Configured to match your governance model, assurance posture and information controls—keeping the system lightweight and usable.
Tailor categories and scoring to fit how your organisation governs risk (strategic, operational, financial, statutory, safeguarding, cyber, reputational).
Confirm scope (service, programme and corporate), governance forums, current cadence, and where risk oversight stalls (unclear ownership, ageing actions, weak escalation). Agree the first set of “exceptions that must surface”.
Define the taxonomy, minimum fields, trigger rules, escalation routes and pack structure. Align what gets reviewed at service level versus what escalates to executive and scrutiny/audit.
Configure the register, action tracking, permissions and pack extracts—then run the first cycle with consistent review and closure checkpoints.
