Equipment breakdowns, process delays, or compliance gaps—operational risks come in many forms, and you can take charge of them with this risk management plan template. Moving beyond simple risk listing, this template guides you through a complete risk management cycle. You’ll establish effective key risk indicators (KRIs) and clear accountability for risk mitigation actions.

Being systematic with this is increasingly vital, as PwC reports that 9 in 10 organizations have gone through several major disruptions. Use this template to move beyond reactive crisis management and be proactive with risk prevention instead.

Frequently asked questions

How do I identify the most critical operational risks for my organization?

Focus on risks that could significantly impact your core operations. Review past incidents, analyze process workflows, and gather input from frontline staff. Consider both high-probability/low-impact risks and low-probability/high-impact scenarios. Our template’s categorization system helps prioritize risks by type and severity.

What’s a good way to categorize operational risks in the template?

Start with the template’s suggested categories (people, process, system, external), then customize based on your organization’s structure. Consider adding categories specific to your industry or operations. The goal is to group similar risks to identify patterns and develop consistent mitigation strategies across related risk types.

How detailed should my risk descriptions be in this template?

Each risk description should clearly communicate the nature of the threat, potential consequences, and affected operations. Aim for concise yet comprehensive descriptions—typically 1-3 sentences. Include enough detail that someone unfamiliar with the risk could understand its significance and context within your organization.

What should I do if a risk falls between two rating levels?

When a risk falls between rating levels, consider its potential business impact as the deciding factor. Document your reasoning in the assessment section. The template allows for this flexibility—the ratings aren’t rigid boundaries but tools to help prioritize your response. Consider creating custom intermediate ratings if this happens frequently.
