Risk Management
Risk Treatment Progress
Status of risk treatment action plans by stage, with on-track and overdue counts.
Why tracking treatment progress matters
Identifying risk is only half of the MFMA and PFMA risk-management obligation; accounting officers must also evidence that treatment actions are being implemented and are reducing exposure. Tracking action plans by stage, with on-track and overdue counts, is what separates a living risk-management process from a register that is updated once a year. AuditPro Core monitors treatment-plan status so stalled or overdue actions are visible to owners and the audit committee in time to act.

Risk treatment
Treatment is the action chosen to modify a risk, whether to avoid, reduce, transfer or accept it. A treatment decision without implementation leaves residual risk unchanged.
Action-plan stages
Treatment actions move through stages from planned to in-progress to complete. Stage tracking shows whether momentum exists or whether plans are stalling between identification and delivery.
On-track versus overdue
Comparing actual progress against target dates separates plans proceeding as expected from those slipping. Overdue counts are the clearest signal that treatment is failing to keep pace with risk.
Effectiveness confirmation
Completing an action is not the same as confirming it reduced the risk. A robust process re-assesses residual risk after treatment to verify the intended effect was achieved.
How AuditPro Core Bridges the Gap
- Stage tracking: every treatment action is monitored through its lifecycle stage so stalls are visible.
- Overdue exceptions: actions past their target date are flagged and escalated to owners automatically.
- Owner accountability: each action links to its accountable owner and due date, exposing unassigned or orphaned plans.
- Audit-ready progress report: status exports to evidence active risk management under MFMA and PFMA for AGSA.
Key Takeaways
- A treatment decision without implementation does not reduce residual risk.
- Stage tracking reveals whether plans have momentum or are stalling.
- Overdue counts are the clearest signal treatment is falling behind.
- Re-assess residual risk after completion to confirm the intended effect.
