OneAdvanced Launches AI-Powered Risk Management Platform to Strengthen Governance & Resilience Across Australia & New Zealand

SYDNEY, Australia - 2 September 2026 - OneAdvanced, a leading provider of business software, has announced the launch of its new, state-of-the-art Risk Management Platform in Australia and New Zealand. Designed to simplify the complex task of identifying, assessing and managing organisational risks, the platform features Risk Assist, an integrated, AI-powered agent that guides users through risk processes and enforces standardisation.

The launch comes at a critical time, as ANZ organisations face increasing regulatory expectations, audit scrutiny and operational complexities across sectors including logistics, government, education, healthcare and finance. By combining intuitive workflows with advanced, secure artificial intelligence, the platform enables organisations to move away from disconnected spreadsheets and manual administrative tasks to embed a proactive culture of risk management across teams.

With the introduction of Risk Assist, risk owners, even those without specialist risk expertise, are guided through the process of articulating and completing risk assessments quickly and consistently. The built-in AI agent helps standardise risk descriptions to align with international frameworks like ISO 31000 or an organisation's specific risk taxonomy, saving valuable time and reducing errors. The AI-driven engine provides real-time, proactive recommendations for controls and mitigation strategies, helping to identify safeguards and reallocate resources effectively. 

Adam Bowles, Country Director for Australia and New Zealand at OneAdvanced (pictured), said local organisations are seeking smarter ways to integrate compliance with day-to-day operations. 

He said: "As local organisations face mounting pressure to demonstrate compliance and operational resilience, managing risk can no longer be a manual, reactive exercise. Our new Risk Management Platform is designed to simplify this complexity and democratise risk ownership. 

Key capabilities of the OneAdvanced Risk Management Platform

• Centralised Risk Registers: Consolidates strategic, operational, program and project risks into a single system, providing a single source of truth and eliminating departmental silos.
• Actionable Visual Reporting: One-click reports, interactive dashboards and dynamic Red-Amber-Green (RAG) heatmaps provide instant, real-time insights into the organisation's risk exposure for executive teams and boards.
• AI-Powered Controls and Actions: Recommends validated mitigation strategies and automatically tracks review dates, custodians and actions with proactive email prompts to ensure accountability and reduce administrative overhead.
• Granular Security and Compliance: Protects sensitive data with role-based permissions, multi-factor authentication (MFA) and detailed audit logs of all changes for full transparency and audit readiness.
• Secure, Non-Training AI Engine: Risk Assist leverages OneAdvanced AI, built on a secure, self-hosted platform. It ensures complete data privacy as no customer data is used to train the underlying large language model.

These features are supported by OneAdvanced's commitment to responsible AI. The company recently achieved ISO 42001 certification, a milestone that places OneAdvanced among the first global SaaS providers to meet the rigorous international standard for responsible and trustworthy artificial intelligence. This certification offers ANZ customers unmatched reassurance regarding the ethical deployment, security, and governance of AI-powered features such as Risk Assist.

"By embedding Risk Assist directly into workflows, we are empowering every team member to contribute to risk identification while giving risk managers the strategic oversight they need to drive better business outcomes," said Adam Bowles.

The OneAdvanced Risk Management Platform, including Risk Assist, is generally available now to organisations across Australia and New Zealand.
