Q

What is the purpose of ORM?

A

ORM is a decision making tool used by personnel at all levels to increase effectiveness by
identifying, assessing, and managing risks. It increases the Navy’s ability to make informed decisions
by providing a standardized RM process.
- ORM minimizes risks to acceptable levels and applies to on/ off-duty activities 24 hours a day, 7
days a week, and 365 days a year

reduces costs. Thorough planning identifies associated hazards and the steps necessary to
complete the task or mission
