About This Automation

Risk register management involves identifying new risks, gathering assessment data, collecting stakeholder feedback, and updating a central record. Manual processes create delays, version confusion, and incomplete audit trails.

Automation consolidates risk data collection, coordinates stakeholder reviews without email chasing, calculates risk scores consistently, and flags escalations instantly. The register stays current and audit-ready with minimal manual effort.

Key features

Send automated review requests to stakeholders and track responses in real time
Calculate risk scores and escalation flags based on consistent rules
Consolidate feedback and resolve conflicting assessments automatically
Generate audit reports on demand without manual export or formatting
Alert senior management immediately when risks exceed thresholds

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Risk Event or Review Cycle Detectedtrigger

A new risk is logged, an existing risk is updated, or a scheduled review cycle begins. The automation platform monitors the risk register and triggers the workflow.

2. Centralise Risk Data

The automation platform captures the risk details (description, likelihood, impact, owner, mitigation actions) and stores them in a centralised database or structured sheet with full audit trail.

3. Assess Risk Score Automatically

The automation platform calculates the risk score based on likelihood and impact using predefined rules. It flags risks that exceed escalation thresholds.

4. Send Review Request to Stakeholders

The automation platform sends a structured review request via email or to the assigned stakeholders, including a direct link to the risk entry and a deadline.

5. Collect and Log Stakeholder Feedback

Stakeholder responses are automatically captured and logged in the register with timestamps and attribution. The automation tracks who reviewed and when.

6. Escalate High-Risk Items

If a risk score exceeds the escalation threshold, the automation platform automatically sends an alert to senior management or the board via email or.

7. Generate Audit Report

The automation platform generates a formatted audit report on demand or on a schedule, including risk summary, status, mitigation progress, and full change history.
