What is Risk Assessment?
A strategic approach to planning, at all levels and across all functions of an organization, that identifies exposures of activities and assists in making risk adjusted business decisions every day.
GET RID OF SILOS
![Page 3: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Where Does Risk Assessment, Insurance, Bonding and
Indemnification Fit in the Contracting Process?
• At the inception of an idea, your agency should perform a risk assessment of the activity.
![Page 4: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Use The Contract Documents As Your First Tools
• A Request for Information (RFI) can be very useful in determining the amounts of insurance your targeted contractors carry and how much the coverage costs them.
• An Invitation to Bid (ITB) and a Request for Proposal (RFP) are commonly used in the bidding process.
• At the beginning of the process, use the Risk Assessment to decide types and amounts of Insurance and Bonding that should be built into the bid document.
![Page 5: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Don’t Forget About History!• Has your agency, oversight
agency, or peers procured this type of service or product before?
– Review solicitation or contract files.
– Review past practice.
– Ask the old timers.
– Create your own historical reference material for future use.

Call Your Agency Area Experts
Who Are the Agency Area Experts?• Your Manager• Program staff and managers

What is the specific activity?
![Page 8: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What is Your Agency’s Appetite
for Risk?
![Page 9: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What is a Risk Appetite?• Risk appetite is the degree of
uncertainty an agency is willing to accept to reach its goals.
• Risk appetite is a key factor in evaluating strategic options.
• Risk Assessment helps management consider risk appetite when setting goals that align with overall agency strategy, and managing risks related to that strategy.
![Page 10: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Work with your agency’s management to decide:• What is your agency’s risk
tolerance?
• How much or what are you willing to risk to accomplish the mission or activity?
• How much can your agency afford to lose in any one occurrence or in the aggregate?
![Page 11: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

(Mission, Goals, Objectives)
![Page 12: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Does the activity fit the Agency
mission, goals, objectives?

What is Risk?
The danger or probability of loss.
![Page 16: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Loss Exposure
Possibility of financial loss as the result of a particular peril
striking a thing of value.
![Page 17: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Components of a Loss Exposure
The type of value exposed to loss.
The peril that causes the loss. The extent of the potential
financial consequences of that loss.
![Page 18: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

THINK ABOUT WHAT CAN GO
Wrong!
![Page 22: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why is this important?
An unrecognized loss exposure cannot, except by chance, be effectively managed.

Methods Of Identifying Exposures:
• Previous contracts of similar type and their outcomes.
• Standardized surveys/questionnaires• Financial statements• Records and files• Loss Reports/Claims• Flowcharts• Personal inspections• Experts
![Page 24: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
What questions should we ask?
![Page 25: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
What is the scope of the contracted service or activity?• What is the overall service
or activity?
• What functions are necessary to deliver or accomplish this service or activity?
• When and where will the service or activity take place(s)?
![Page 26: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Who will be performing the service or activity?
• Will the contractor interact with others, i.e., public, staff, etc?
• Will there be any hazardous materials involved?
![Page 27: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
What are the potential loss exposures or risks associated with the contracted service or
activity?
![Page 28: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What could happen?
• What could go wrong? Who could be harmed?
• Could there be bodily injury, property damage or other liability exposures caused by this service or activity?
• Is there any impact on workload? Could there be any damage to our systems?
![Page 29: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Remember…..
• Consider the values exposed to loss: People, Property, Freedom from Liability.
• Consider the perils that could cause loss: Natural, Human, Economic.

Risk Rating (RR) = Level Of Risk
• E = Extreme Risk - involve senior management immediately, emergency situation, consider not doing the activity.
• H = High Risk - management attention required for business and policy decisions, risk control, insurance types and limits, etc.
• M = Moderate Risk - management should be kept informed of risk control, insurance types and limits, etc.
• L = Low Risk - manage by routine procedures, insurance types and limits could be flexible.

EXPLOITING OPPORTUNITIES
• What opportunities will be missed if the activity is not done?
• What is the upside and downside of these opportunities?
• By considering the full range of potential events—rather than just risks—the risk assessment process ensures that management can identify and take advantage of positive events quickly and efficiently.

Avoid Exposure
Entirely eliminates any possibility of loss. It is achieved either by abandoning or never undertaking an activity or an asset.
![Page 47: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

DuplicationProvide a duplicate or stand by for use in
case assets or activities suffer a loss.
![Page 52: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Contractual Transfer of Risk
GOAL:
To insure that a contractor is responsible for claims arising
out of his or her acts, and has some way to pay for these losses.
![Page 53: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Principle #1
Contractually transfer the risk to the contractor.
Indemnity is only as good as the assets or insurance coverage backing it up.
Ask for appropriate insurance and bonds to cover the risk.
![Page 54: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Principle #2Do not indemnify an independent
contractor.The state is subject to the Oregon Tort
Claims Act (OTCA). OTCA limits state liability.
Contractors have unlimited liability.Indemnifying a contractor may make the
state subject to unlimited liability.
![Page 55: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Principle #3• Don’t rely on insurance or bonds to
cover all of the risks associated with your contract.
• Many times outcome based statements of work, contract administration, and supervision are far better risk control measures to protect the state’s interests than insurance or bonds.
• Insurance and bonds should be thought of as the safety net that catches us when everything else goes wrong.
![Page 56: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Develop Risk Control Measures Specific to the Situation
•Personal protective equipment.
•Housekeeping, repair, and maintenance.
•Inspections.
•Tools and equipment.
•Policies, procedures, and process.
•Supervision.
•Contract Management and Administration.

Yes = Move on to select appropriate Contractual
Transfer - Contract Clauses
No = Go to State’s Self – Insurance or

Will you use a
contract?
Will you use a
template?
Will you require
insurance or

How do you contractually transfer risk to a contractor?
![Page 68: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Four Steps
(1) Do a risk assessment.
(2) Determine the necessary actions for the contractual transfer of risk, such as the use of appropriate contract templates, contract language, insurance, bonds and risk control measures.
(3) Review each contract.
(4) Follow-up to insure compliance with the insurance and bonding requirements.
![Page 69: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Step 1: Risk Assessment
(1) What is the scope of the contracted service or activity?
(2) What are the potential loss exposures or risks? What can go wrong? Who can be harmed?
(3) What is the likelihood that each of these potential loss exposures will happen?
4) Rate the severity of each potential loss exposure. How bad can it be? What could it cost?
5) Determine the risk rating for each potential loss exposure.
![Page 70: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Step 2: Determine the necessary actions for the
contractual transfer of risk • Use of standardized contract
templates. • Use of appropriate contract
language including indemnification clauses and other non-insurance risk transfer.
• Use of appropriate insurance, bonds and coverage limits.
• Use of appropriate risk control measures.

What is the Difference Between an Umbrella Policy
and Excess Coverage?

Umbrella PoliciesProvide excess coverage over
another underlying liability policy.Many times provides broader
coverage than the primary (underlying) liability policy.
![Page 76: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)

Current Case Law
• Id. at 479. A tort claim, where there is a contract between parties, may only proceed where there is some kind of obligation owed by one party to the other beyond the duties that the contract imposes.
• Id. at 477. Examples of such relationships are those between lawyers and clients, doctors and patients, or trustees and beneficiaries. The court has called these “special relationships.”

E = Extreme Risk:
• First, consider not doing the activity.
• If you must, you will need to decide how much a potential loss could cost?
• In general, risks at this level warrant more than $1 million in coverage.
![Page 133: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/133.jpg)
H = High Risk:• Could a potential loss cost in
excess of $1 million? If so, ask for more coverage.
• Make sure your assessment considers all costs of potential losses.
• Risk Management would not recommend limits of less than $1 million for High rated risks.
![Page 134: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/134.jpg)
M = Moderate Risk:• Standard limit of insurance
is $1 million.• Assessment should
consider all costs of potential losses.
• If assessment reveals potential loss in excess of $1 million, your risk may actually be high (see H for High Risk.)
![Page 135: Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap (ppt - 3.2 MB)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061208/548b4b42b47959e70c8b612d/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)
L = Low Risk:• If risk is minimal, this is the area where
coverage and limits may potentially be flexible.• Standard limit is still $1 million.• In the case of minimal risks, the agency could
make a business decision to lower the limits of coverage.
• Risk Management would not generally recommend insurance limits of less than $500,000.
• If the risk assessment reveals only minute risk, agency could make a business decision to waive coverage.

Don’t Forget!
About all of the other non-insurance ways to manage risks. Remember that insurance should be the safety net when everything else goes wrong.

Contractual Transfer of Risk Final Steps
Step 3: Review each contract to insure that clauses are up-to-date and the language is appropriate.
Step 4: Insure that you collect and review Certificates of Insurance. Keep a tracking system to insure that coverages do not expire.

Does self-insurance cover the activity and/or
people?
Does management want Risk Mgmt to buy commercial insurance for the activity?
No
No = How will the agency pay for losses resulting from the activity?
Yes = Move on to evaluate Self-Insurance or Commercial
Insurance Coverage
