Appl. No.:
10/246023
Inventors:
William Douglas - Strafford PA, US
International Classification:
G06F017/60
US Classification:
705/007000
Abstract:
Risk management information is collected from each of a plurality of separate entities according to a common standard, and then at least one of the entities is provided with a report comparing all the entities as a function of the risk management information. In a different approach, risk management information is collected from each of a plurality of separate sections of an entity according to a common standard, where the information from each section includes information about risk incidents experienced and about costs incurred to manage risks. A report is then prepared to compare the sections of that entity as to risk management, based on the information collected.
