Integrating Risk into Strategy and Performance

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) moves beyond traditional, siloed approaches—where each department manages its own risks independently—toward a holistic, integrated framework. It enables organizations to identify, assess, and manage all key risks that could impact strategic objectives.

Guided by global standards such as ISO 31000 and the COSO Framework, an effective ERM system integrates risk management into every layer of governance and decision-making. It identifies interdependencies between strategic, operational, financial, and compliance risks, providing leadership with a unified risk view.

BQCIS supports organizations in developing robust ERM programs—defining governance structures, establishing a risk appetite framework, designing risk registers, and implementing risk reporting dashboards—enabling proactive, data-driven decision-making.

Key ERM Framework Activities

ERM Framework Development (ISO 31000)

We work with leadership teams to design and implement an ERM framework based on ISO 31000 principles. This includes defining governance structures, risk ownership, and core processes for risk identification, evaluation, and mitigation, ensuring consistent enterprise-wide risk management.

Risk Appetite & Culture Development

We facilitate workshops to define your organization's risk appetite, tolerance levels, and escalation pathways. Our advisors also assess and strengthen your risk culture to ensure all employees understand how to identify and respond to key risks in line with company strategy.

Success Story

ERM Implementation Unifies Risk Oversight

The Challenge:

A global manufacturing group struggled with decentralized risk management—each department tracked risks independently with no enterprise-wide visibility or prioritization.

Our Solution:

BQCIS helped design and implement an ISO 31000-aligned ERM framework, establishing a cross-functional risk committee, standardized risk register templates, and executive-level reporting dashboards.

The Result:

The new ERM system provided consolidated insights across 20+ global sites, reduced risk redundancy, and improved capital allocation decisions through unified risk intelligence.
