Managing a multitude of internal and external risks is one of the most significant challenges facing global organizations today. Operational risk has been associated with business since the advent of commerce. With today’s renewed focus on ensuring business performance while protecting investors and the corporate brand, executives are being prompted to re-prioritize the importance of operational risk management within their organizations.
Minimizing losses, maximizing organizational efficiencies and reducing earnings volatility have always been high priorities for executive management and boards of directors. Increasing transaction volumes, growth-driven acquisitions and the globalization of business, coupled with a larger reliance on technology, have introduced higher degrees of complexity and uncertainty to organizations. In order to maintain a competitive advantage and to improve overall performance, organizations are seeking a way to understand and proactively manage the risks that can impact the business.
OpenPages ORM (Operational Risk Management) software automates the process of identifying, measuring and monitoring operational risk, integrating all risk data in a risk analysis– risk and control self assessments, loss events and key risk indicators (KRI) – into a single solution. OpenPages ORM combines powerful document and process management with a monitoring and decision support system that enables organizations to analyze, manage and mitigate risk in a simple and efficient manner.
OpenPages’ risk self-assessment capabilities enable organizations to document and evaluate their risk frameworks, including processes, risks, events, key risk indicators (KRI) and controls. Executive-level dashboard and reports provide visibility into the risk analysis, highlighting key risk metrics and policy compliance.
