Enterprise-wide Risk Management Category
DIAC has made significant progress in recent years at embedding an enterprise-wide risk management framework across a large and dynamic agency.

Concurrent Case Study Sessions
Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) | Highly Commended | Enterprise-wide Risk Management Category
The Secretary of DAFF has made revitalising the agency's risk management framework a priority of the Department. While the existing framework was sound, it was also process orientated and complex. What was required was an approach to managing risk that would enable the agency to become more responsive, adaptive and resilient. Learn more about how this was undertaken and DAFF's approach to risk management.
Bureau of Meterology (BOM) | Highly Commended | Risk Initiative Category
