E-RIHS PP D2.3 Risk Management Framework
The scope and scale of the Research Infrastructure envisaged in this proposal mean that it is necessary to establish an Enterprise-Wide Risk Management Framework (ERM) to design, implement, monitor and improve risk management consistently and efficiently across all aspects of the RI's activities using quantitative and qualitative measures in a way which is compatible with existing Risk Management arrangements within partner institutions.

The Framework is designed to be compatible with and capable of integration with existing Risk Management procedures and regulations already in place within partner organisations. It takes account of national Health & Safety Regulations as well as the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 and any local considerations arising from local Freedom of Information legislation. The Framework addresses practical Risk Management from the perspectives of the different levels of the hierarchical Research Infrastructure (International, National and Individual) as well as from the perspectives of risks inherent within specific artefacts and defined preservation procedures. The overall objective is to create a consistent approach to risk management which enables all participants to share and learn from others' experience. The Framework also considers Opportunity Management as a positive aspect of Risk Management. The hierarchical design of the Framework has been tested with other partners via a dedicated workshop during Year 2 and is based on ...
