Common Core
ORM (Operation Risk Management) Key Concept
Is a decision-making tool used to increase operational effectiveness by identifying, assessing, and managing risk. Reducing potential for loss, and increasing probability of a successful mission
(ORM) Identifying Hazards
Begins with an outline or chart of the major steps in the operation (Operation Analysis)
(ORM) Assessing Hazards
For each hazard identified, determine the associated degree of risk in terms of probability and severity
(ORM) Making Risk Decisions
Develop risk control options
(ORM) Implementing Controls
Used to eliminate hazards or reduce the degree of risk
(ORM) Supervising
Conduct follow-up evaluations of the control to ensure they remain in place and have the desired effect.
