Hi Meredith, This is an interesting question that the University of Washington has also been reconsidering. Similar to Joshua's response below, we have units that handle specific kinds of compliance such as research, environmental health and safety, and our UW Medicine component.
However, we have recently moved the Risk Management unit from our business services executive to the Office of the Provost, and renamed it Compliance and Risk Services to acknowledge the expanded role of compliance and risk assessment into the academic side of the university and to provide services to units with (and without) their own compliance officers. These changes have only been in place a few months but the concept seems to be working better for the organization. My best, Rebecca REBECCA GOODWIN DEARDORFF Director of Rules Coordination Office of the President 448 Gerberding Hall Box 351210 Seattle WA 98195-1210 206.543.9219 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> / washington.edu/rules [logo] From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joshua Adams Sent: Thursday, February 25, 2016 8:20 AM To: ACUPA-L <[email protected]> Subject: RE:[acupa-l] Enterprise Risk Management Meredith, While I can't really speak to the "reason," per se, our institutional risk management office reports to our EVP. We do not have a central office for compliance, but manage compliance at the unit level (there's a research compliance function, a health and safety compliance function, etc).

From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Meredith Canady Sent: Thursday, February 25, 2016 11:09 AM To: ACUPA-L <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [acupa-l] Enterprise Risk Management Good morning, all, I apologize that this question deviates from the traditional policy-related questions, but I am hoping for input from a policy-administrator perspective. Our policy management is housed in University Compliance, and as a department, we work closely with the Risk Manager on a daily basis. We are looking for models of organizational responsibility, function, and reporting regarding Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). Our 10,000 student public university has the Risk Manager charged with implementation. Would the reporting and oversight of ERM and the Risk Manager be best housed in Compliance? With the Executive Vice President? Internal Audit? Why or why not? Thank you all for any insight you may have! Meredith Canady, J.D.
