The Digital Operational Resilience Act sets a single, demanding bar for operational resilience across EU financial entities and their ICT providers. Governance, risk management, incident reporting, resilience testing, and third-party oversight all have to be demonstrably in place. Regulators are active, timelines are tight, and evidence expectations are explicit. A structured implementation programme is the only realistic way to close gaps on time.

WHAT YOU GET: A THREE-PHASE JOURNEY

Phase 1: Diagnose. Seven domain assessments (30 questions each, 210 total) score your maturity across Critical Function Identification, Risk Assessment Methodology, Due Diligence and Vendor Selection, and related areas. You can complete the Quick Scan diagnostic in under an hour and know exactly where the biggest gaps and opportunities sit.

Phase 2: Set Goals. Five PM template workbooks with roadmaps, RACI matrices, milestone trackers, risk registers, and stakeholder communication plans. These lock in scope, timeline, and accountability before a single line of implementation work starts, which is consistently where programmes succeed or stall.

Phase 3: Implement. Nine operational runbooks and checklists covering deployment, incident response, vendor and third-party handling, and governance reviews. Every runbook is built to be followed by a working team, not read and filed. Pro tips, example rows, and common-mistake callouts give you the benefit of hard-won practitioner experience from the first day.
