Using the Risk Management Dashboard
Evaluations provide the Risk Manager and the BPM Manager with a structured overview of all risk analyses for processes in the Process Space across several cards.
The Dashboard tab is the first tab on the Risk Management page, which you can find in the main menu under Risks. Almost everything on it is clickable and leads to the processes behind it; the Filter restricts the evaluation to one level of the process hierarchy.
Prerequisites
You are a Risk Manager or a BPM Manager.
What is the Dashboard tab used for?
- Identified chances and risks are summarized in overviews for all published processes in the Process Space
- Based on the assessments of the risks and chances, their status and relevance are evaluated
- The evaluations help you focus on the key risks and chances in your company’s process landscape
- The status of the control assessments shows whether the controls are assessed on time and thus whether you can rely on the risk analyses
Structure of the Dashboard tab
The tab shows cards and tiles with information on, among other things, the status of the risk analyses, the risk relevance, the assessment matrix, the risk categories and the status of the control assessment.
You can click cards whose icon is highlighted or that have a link. They then show the details with the respective processes, which you can reach from there with a click.
The Back button takes you back to the Dashboard.
Analysis Status of Processes
Shows how many processes in the Process Space have the status Not assessed, In progress or Published. Processes marked as not relevant are not counted.
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Not assessed | No risk and no chance has been recorded yet for the published process. |
| In progress | The process has new or changed risks or chances that have not been published yet. Creating risk assessments and, if applicable, controls is a prerequisite for publishing a risk analysis in a meaningful way. |
| Published | The risk analysis is published and valid. For published risk analyses, statistics are shown on the Dashboard, broken down by various key characteristics. These statistics can be compared with statistics from an earlier date. |
In the overview, risk analyses whose validity period has been exceeded are marked as Expired.
Tiles
Tiles with the respective number for Uncontrolled risks in ongoing analyses, Unassessed chances/risks in ongoing analyses, Overdue analyses and Upcoming analyses in the next 30 days:
| Property | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Uncontrolled risks in ongoing analyses | Number of risks without a control in ongoing analyses. Ongoing means: the analysis has not been published yet, and the risk is new or changed. Click the tile to list these risks. A row takes you to the risk analysis, where you can add a control, for example. |
| Unassessed chances/risks in ongoing analyses | Number of chances and risks without an assessment in ongoing analyses that have not been published yet. This means their possible effects are not known. Click the tile to list these chances and risks. |
| Overdue analyses | Number of all analyses whose validity date has already been exceeded |
| Upcoming analyses in the next 30 days | Number of analyses that are due in the next 30 days |
Further cards
-
New processes
Shows the processes that have been published in the last six months and do not have any risks or chances yet.
A link takes you to the overview of all these processes. You can navigate directly to the process you want.
-
Risk Relevance of Processes
Shows the proportions of relevant and non-relevant processes.
Processes are always risk-relevant to begin with. A process becomes not relevant when the Risk Manager or BPM Manager publishes a risk analysis without risks and chances. The analysis published last is always the decisive one.
-
Risk Matrix
Shows the number of risks or chances of all processes in the individual matrix fields. The assessment shown is the one assigned after the analysis was completed.
The toggle icon switches between the display of the risks and the chances.
-
Risks by Category
Shows the number of risks by category.
-
Control Assessment Status
Shows the number of control assessments with the status Valid, Upcoming or Overdue for the risk analyses in the Process Space. The status of the control assessments results from the time of the last assessment and the assessment cycle that has been defined for the respective control.
All risks whose controls have been set for assessment are taken into account. You can find more on the subject of control assessment under Assessing a Risk Control
