Challenges and tasks of risk management officers

Risk management officers are faced with the demanding task of systematically recording risks, objectively evaluating them and making them controllable across the company. In doing so, they must keep track of numerous sources of information, meet regulatory requirements and involve specialist areas in risk management.

Typical challenges:

  • Intransparent risk landscape: Risks are recorded decentrally and are difficult to compare or aggregate.
  • Missing process link: Risks are often documented separately from the processes in which they actually have an effect.
  • Confusing action management: Measures are difficult to understand, responsibilities are unclear or maintained multiple times.
  • Regulatory pressure: Standards such as ISO 31000, MaRisk, BAIT or industry-specific KRITIS requirements require reliable evidence.
  • Lack of integration: Risk management, ISMS, BCM or ICS often run in isolated tools and Excel files without a uniform database.

The central task: to establish consistent risk management across the company that works both strategically and operationally with clear responsibilities, robust processes and complete transparency of all risks and measures.

With Aeneis, risk management officers have the ideal basis for overcoming these challenges: centralized, process-oriented, integrated with GRC.

This is why Aeneis is ideal for risk management officers

  • Centralized risk management: Aeneis offers you a powerful, process-oriented risk management system in which risks are recorded, assessed, managed and monitored in a structured manner, consistently, audit-proof and with uniform methodology.
  • Uniform risk identification: Risks are systematically recorded in Aeneis and linked to affected processes, roles, IT systems and measures. In this way, risk identification is not only formally fulfilled, but also integrated into the organization's everyday practices.
  • Objective assessment of the probability of occurrence and impact: With Aeneis, you can analyze the probability of occurrence and amount of damage directly in the context of your processes. Individually configurable assessment models and risk matrices ensure transparent, well-founded risk assessments.
  • Actively minimize risks and manage measures: Link risks directly to appropriate measures, deadlines and responsibilities. In this way, risks can be effectively minimized and controlled, automated and fully documented.
  • Ensure compliance at all times: Whether it's MaRisk, ISO 31000, BAIT or KRITIS: Aeneis helps you efficiently implement regulatory requirements and ensure compliance with your risk management at all times with comprehensible reports, automated workflows and full GRC integration.
  • Seamless integration into all GRC areas: Aeneis combines risk management, ISMS, BCM, ICS and audit management on a central platform. All GRC apps access the same database without system breaks, with maximum consistency.

Why process-oriented risk management is essential today

Risk management only has its full effect if it is thought and implemented in a process-oriented manner. This is because risks do not arise in the organization chart, but along your operational processes, where decisions are made, services are provided and data is processed.

Process-oriented risk management means:
Risks are not managed in isolation, but are recorded, assessed and managed directly in connection with the affected business processes. This ensures maximum transparency and allows a realistic assessment of the actual threat situation, both strategically and operationally.

With Aeneis, risks, processes, measures, roles and IT systems are systematically linked together. You recognize early on where risks are taking effect, which processes are affected and which measures are necessary to effectively address these risks.

Process-oriented work ensures clear responsibilities, consistent assessments and sustainable professionalization of your risk management. It creates transparency, improves management and ensures the long-term stability of your company.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What are the advantages of Aeneis compared to Excel or individual solutions?

With Aeneis, you work in an integrated, audit-proof and process-oriented manner. Risks are not only listed, but also intelligently linked to processes, roles and measures.

How does risk assessment work in Aeneis?

You can define your own evaluation criteria or draw on best practice models. You can then individually assess each risk according to its gross and net probabilities and effects (before and after the implementation of measures). The risk class is then automatically determined.

Can I adapt Aeneis to meet my industry requirements?

Yes, Aeneis offers a well-thought-out standard, but it can be adapted to your requirements.

Is Aeneis also suitable for KRITIS companies?

Absolutely. Aeneis supports you in meeting your documentation requirements, ensuring information security, business continuity, and internal control systems in a centralized, structured and traceable manner.

How quickly is Aeneis ready for use?

Thanks to a modular structure, preconfigured templates and support from intellior experts, a productive start is possible in just a few weeks.

“We design our process management from functional documentation to an instrument for overall process control. In doing so, we transform our document management system into a lively, always up-to-date process management system and implement the regulatory requirements in Aeneis in a legally secure and digital manner. A core element of this is, for example, the connection of the policy structure with a customer and value-added oriented process structure. ”

“It is particularly valuable for us that Aeneis optimally supports TRILUX's Simplify philosophy: Our employees have easy access to all relevant processes, which results in significantly improved collaboration.
In addition, we can effectively map all touchpoints with our customers and their dependencies in order to align our processes even better with customer needs. ”

“Before implementing Aeneids, there was no uniform process model in our company. Our goal was to create a central port for all business areas and management systems, supported by a uniform process model. By using Aeneis as BPM and GRC software, we can digitize our processes in a validated environment and integrate them into a central platform. This enables us to consolidate our global business processes and management systems and laid the foundation for merging the process-supporting application structure. ”

In the past, data maintenance was cumbersome and paper-based. With Aeneis, we have significantly reduced effort, simplified complexity and can now fully concentrate on our actual profession again. Aeneis combines all the important functions we need: process descriptions, risk management, audits, error reporting systems, and much more. The big advantage is that we can adapt it exactly to our structures and needs, which is often not possible with other solutions.

“Until 12 years ago, we had not documented any processes, just a few work instructions and a few organizational guidelines. Then we got to know Aeneis through an external consultant. With Aeneis as BPM software, we have now mapped our key business processes and organizational structure and integrated everything into a central quality management system down to employee level. This is fully accessible to all our employees and integrated into our existing intranet. The GoToMarket process, which is very important to us, forms the core of documenting our process organization and the organizational chart, which is very conveniently structured in Aeneis, provides guidance about our organizational structure. ”

“We didn't have any process documentation before, just a few instructions and forms. But then, as part of further training, we got to know another company that had already successfully used the system. With Aeneis as BPM and GRC software, we have now documented our processes and integrated them together with our documents, instructions and forms into a central management system. This led to improved knowledge of processes and cooperation and thus to fewer frictional losses and extra work. ”

“In the Infraserv Höchst Group, I worked for over 15 years as a responsible coordinator for process management and as a management representative responsible for the PRISMA integrated management system (software Aeneis) and the associated certifications. Aeneis has given us the flexibility to successfully implement the many requirements with an integrated management system and to be 'compliant'. The modules offered or our own customizing provided us with very good support.”
