Description

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) are seeking to procure an integrated Risk and Assurance system (the system) that provides a long-term solution that is adaptable to the complexity of UKRI now and in the future. The existing risk system, EasyRisk system was implemented as an interim solution when UKRI was formed. The primary over-arching objective of the project is to implement a suitable long-term solution, through a flexible, integrated and easy-to-use system that can support the diverse risk management and assurance needs of UKRI. The solution adopted will be able to adapt to change in organisational objectives and structure. It will provide improved capability to capture, update, track and present relevant information to stakeholders, enabling effective reporting and informed decision making, at all levels. The primary objectives of the project, include: • Improved quality of risk & assurance reporting • Higher efficiency and effectiveness of risk management by the business • Increased linkage and integration between Risk, Assurance, and Controls • Increased linkage to objectives and corporate plan • New capability to produce KPIs and KRIs The system will be used across UKRI. This will include the 9 councils and the corporate areas. The Enterprise Risk Management System (ERM) will also support portfolio, programmes and projects. The system will support the embedding of the Risk Management Framework and the Assurance Framework. It will be used to manage and support the captured Risk, Assurance, IGRAF (Integrated Governance, Risk & Assurance Framework) and Audit information. Ultimately supporting UKRI by providing information which will help support its decision making. A fully integrated risk and assurance is the most desirable option, this will form part of Level 1 and 2 as stated below in the requirements documents. To demonstrate our requirements further we have separated them into must have, should have and could have using MoSCoW model. This will allow tender bids to demonstrate their ability to provide our requirements against each criteria.
