Manage Operational Risk

Good risk management requires ongoing attention

Good Risk Management Requires Ongoing Attention. We’ve observed that many organisations only identify risks at the beginning of new system or service development. However risks change – sometimes very rapidly and dramatically. Good IT risk management provides a robust and responsive framework that is intertwined with the bi-directional management of scope and the control of change. Inevitably good risk management requires performance feedback built around objective facts and validated data. Preventative action that is prompted and focused by this type of deep insight will always minimise the chance of errors in later stages and save management time and money.

Managing Operational Risk Necessitates A Culture Shift. The pro-active monitoring of risk enables IT leaders to move away from a hazardous reliance on reactive issue management (often described as the “hero-mentality”). A cultural shift in other words, to a safer environment that continually nurtures projects through their life – tracking progress, continually reassessing risk and proactively mitigating adverse exposure. This whole life-cycle approach to risk management minimises the chances of errors or issues surfacing in later development stages and, for example, maximises the chances of delivering to schedule and adequately meeting key principles like operability acceptance and service readiness criteria.
