Transform operational risk into strategic context
Move beyond static spreadsheet matrices. Connect loss events, key risk indicators, and controls into a continuous operating model.
The symptom: risks cataloged in a file nobody reads
Organizations rarely fail from a lack of identified risks. They fail because risk assessments remain disconnected from business objectives and live control evidence.
Strategic Decision: "Guarantee 99.9% uptime across transactional payment processing"
Fragmented Model vs. growGRC Connected Model
Your organization should not rely on disconnected files to demonstrate control and compliance.
Traditional Siloed Management
Isolated PowerPoint, Excel, and email threads
- •Outdated operational risk matrices trapped in Excel files nobody consults.
- •Loss events logged months after the incident without root-cause analysis.
- •Continuity plans (BCP/DRP) archived in PDF documents without periodic testing.
- •Manual KRIs that trigger only after the operational loss has already occurred.
growGRC Connected Model
Strategy, processes, risks, controls, and audit in sync
- Live matrices under ISO 31000 and COSO with dynamic impact evaluation.
- Centralized loss event registry linked directly to the controls meant to prevent them.
- Operational continuity workflows (BIA) tested periodically with digital evidence.
- Automated KRIs providing early warning signals before risk materializes.

Frequently asked questions
Direct answers on the architecture and deployment of the growGRC operating model.
Which operational risk methodologies does growGRC support?
It supports ISO 31000, COSO ERM, Basel III/IV for financial institutions, and custom quantitative or qualitative scoring models aligned to your organization.
How are operational loss events recorded and managed?
You can log incidents with gross amounts, recoveries, and Basel event types, linking the failure directly to the preventive or detective control to trigger a remediation plan.
Can business continuity plans (BCP) be linked to critical processes?
Yes. growGRC integrates Business Impact Analysis (BIA), RTO/RPO definitions, and drill schedules with an evidentiary repository.
