Services

Five service areas, delivered as scoped engagements or fractional appointments.

01

Risk framework design and review

Design, review and remediation of enterprise risk frameworks aligned to ISO 31000, COSO, HM Treasury Orange Book and Cabinet Office Management of Risk. Includes risk appetite, taxonomy, escalation thresholds and register architecture.

02

Second-line assurance

Independent assessment of whether risks are genuinely under active management, and whether the evidence supports stated mitigation and delivery confidence. Structured challenge to executive teams and audit committees.

03

Programme and project assurance

Delivery confidence assessment, milestone and gate assurance, and portfolio-level risk reporting for organisations running concurrent major programmes.

04

Investment due diligence

Independent assessment of governance, enterprise risk, delivery capability and programme exposure for prospective investments, acquisitions and strategic partnerships. Provides decision-makers with a structured view of material risks, control weaknesses and areas requiring further investigation.

05

Board and audit committee reporting

Design of the reporting architecture that carries risk information to boards and committees: what gets escalated, in what form, and on what basis.

Engagements are scoped and deliverable-based, or structured as fractional and interim appointments. Work is contracted and delivered internationally.
