LONDON, 11 November 2016 – Origami Risk, the award-winning risk management Software as a Service (SaaS) and DHL, the world’s leading global delivery and logistics company, have been recognized by CIR (Continuity, Insurance & Risk) Magazine as winners of the publication’s 2016 Risk Management Award for “best implementation.”

Now into their 7th year, the Risk Management Awards recognise those individuals, organisations and teams that have significantly added to the understanding and practice of risk management. Judged by an independent panel of experts for exceptional performance, the awards provide an opportunity for organisations and individuals to showcase their best products, projects and people.

According to CIR Magazine, the award for best implementation “is presented to the company that has most successfully implemented a piece of risk management software and are able to demonstrate a measurable return on investment, as evidenced by key milestones and evidence of targets achieved.”

“We are honored to achieve this recognition together with DHL, which reflects the highly effective team approach deeply ingrained in the cultures of both organizations,” said Robert Petrie, CEO, Origami Risk. “What distinguishes Origami Risk most from other firms in our industry is our ability to deliver superior client service, fueled by a steady stream of innovation and thought leadership. In this case, the DHL risk management team’s strong safety culture and keen understanding of its information management needs enabled us to work together to fast-track implementation and quickly seize opportunities to build on the success we achieved.”

“We are proud of this achievement and thankful to CIR Magazine and the judges for this recognition,” said Julian Thomas, Regional Head of Process & Systems - UKI, EE & EMA, DHL Insurance & Risk Management. “Our effective collaboration with Origami Risk is bringing numerous benefits to our risk management initiatives and shows the impressive gains that can be made when two firms work together seamlessly and share an identical mindset about technology, service and performance.”
