IRIS selected by OGC for Management of Risk re-write

IRIS Intelligence was selected to work with the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) in the recent update of the Management of Risk (M_o_R) Module. 

The OGC works with public sector organisations to help them improve their efficiency, gain better value for money from their commercial activities and deliver improved success from programmes and projects.  Following the release of a new Orange Book by the Treasury in 2005, the OGC needed to update its Guidance on the Management of Risk (M_o_R). 

The M_o_R sets out a framework for taking informed decisions about risk at a strategic, programme, project and operational level to ensure that key risks are identified & assessed and that action is taken to address them.  It has been adopted by government organisations and commercial companies throughout the world.

Anne-Marie Byrne, Programme Director for the MoR rewrite comments “We asked IRIS Intelligence to contribute to the MoR rewrite when we saw their work at the UK Passport Service.  Their Risk Management Method embeds all of the principles that we recommend for the MoR guidelines and we are delighted that Istria agreed to help review and update our guidelines”.
