Risk Management

Benchmarking Club

NEW! SECOND CHANCE TO ENTER ALARM / CIPFA BENCHMARKING CLUB.

If you missed the first opportunity to join the first wave of the Benchmarking Club you can now sign up - send in your application form before 27th August.


The search for a means to measure the performance and effectiveness of the risk management process has long been something of a “holy grail” for risk professionals over the years.

 

The problem of how to measure the impact of preventing something from happening is a difficult one and whilst attempts have been made over the years to measure maturity, some more successful than others, the measurement of effectiveness and achievement has largely eluded us.    

 

The Risk Management Benchmarking Club is the result of collaboration between Alarm and CIPFA. Based on Alarm’s National Performance Model for Risk Management in Public Services published in 2009, membership of the Benchmarking Club will provide access to a performance measurement tool which was initially conceived by an Alarm Special Interest Group, comprising professional, practising risk managers, and developed into its final version in collaboration with leading risk management consultants, Det Norske Veritas (DNV).

 

JOIN NOW!

Membership is open to all public service organisations via an annual subscription. Applications officially closed on 31st March but we will accept completed forms until the 27th August. If you would like to discuss this further please contact kirsty.lane@alarm-uk.org.

 

This fee covers documentation, data collection, telephone helpline, reports and other feedback and a place at review meetings. Only members of the benchmarking club will have access to the output from it. You will not be able to simply purchase data or access it unless you are a member. In order to receive reports about your own performance, you must provide your data. Once you have joined the Benchmarking Club you will receive instructions on how to access and use the system.
