About JCAD CORE

JCAD CORE is a web-based enterprise risk management system designed for use in both the commercial and public sectors, including in central government, local authorities, housing associations, utility companies, and charities. Included are tools to assist users in identifying, monitoring, and mitigating risks, ensuring corporate compliance, exploiting new opportunities, and more.

JCAD's off the shelf risk management software, CORE, provides businesses with a framework that enables controlled management of risk and compliance with a clear link to objectives and strategy.

JCAD CORE gives users the option of using one or multiple risk registers to log identified risks, probabilities, severities, and mitigating actions. The risk register can be configured to align with any pre-existing risk management framework, and allows users to link risks to compliance, incident, and opportunity records, as well as strategy and reporting structure. Risk profiles are structured using a traffic light methodology, and a comprehensive audit trail is created automatically.

Performance metrics in JCAD CORE enable users to measure risk and control performance, through KPIs (key performance indicators) which link with objectives, KRIs (key risk indicators) linked to risks, and KCIs (key control indicators) which link with controls. Interactive dashboards and charts allow users to drill down from graphs to the underlying risk records. Automated alerts can be set up for items such as action reminders, risk & control assessments, and anomalous behaviors, to ensure that users are notified of upcoming deadlines and required action.

The software is smartphone compatible allowing you to access your risk registers from anywhere at anytime. The API integrations allow you to connect to Power BI solutions such as SAP, Oracle and others.


Key benefits of JCAD CORE

  • Three types of metrics can be set up - key risk indicators (KRIs), key performance indicators (KPIs), and key control indicators (KCIs) - and specific users can be assigned ownership of each metric, making them responsible for data entry.

  • Data can be integrated and linked across business functions, such as linking audit recommendations to the applicable process controls, or compliance requirements to high risk business areas and any breaches which have occurred.

  • Records reviews can be carried out in three different ways, using free-text summaries, predefined lists, or assurance statements.

  • The welcome page, which is presented on login, gives users an overview of their assigned records, outstanding reviews, password expiration dates, and more.

  • 15 charts templates, half a dozen of which will be configured to fit the client's framework. API also available to extract data for reporting in enterprise tools.

    Simple, quick

    Pros

    There are many positives, including very good value for money. The extent it can be tailored to specific needs and the addition of new features and functionality gives it significant future proofing for our needs, although we do have a number of suggestions for further enhancements/changes.

    Cons

    As different users have different access permissions what is displayed on e.g. dashboards only covers those records they can see. However, this is not clear on the screens when viewed and could therefore lead to some confusion/misleading information. A message linking to their access permissions etc would add this clarity - e.g. This displays only 'Resources' business unit records. We also have a number of other suggestions for enhancements and changes, e.g. secondary filters for dashboards.

    Response from JCAD

    I appreciate your comments Peter and as you know we are redeveloping the application soon. We will include you and the team during this process to ensure that the development moves in the right direction.

    Thanks

    Excellent support and move to JCAD V5 was quick and seamless.

    Pros

    It is an easy to use, well laid out and intuitive system that has required minimal training for me as the administrator to role out for wider use in the organisation. The support I receive from JCAD from initiating the system to ongoing development is excellent. I never feel like a burden and response times are excellent.

    Cons

    Reporting was a concern but the API link to use powerbi should help this.

    Response from JCAD

    Many thanks for the positive review Maria. I know the team have enjoyed working with you and I agree that the Power BI addition will add much depth to your reporting capabilities.

    It's a good thinking and good product. There is need for follow-up for every product.

    Pros

    As administrator: It is easy to understand data maintenance in setting-up organisation/Business unit. The tendency of complicating data quality is low. The size of users' access is suitably commensurable.Becoming conversant as a result of flexibility
    As a user: It is easy to use and application speed is fast.

    Cons

    I will need to login every time I use it,though I'm aware that it's a cloud based software, which requires this kind of security.

    Response from JCAD

    Many thanks for your review Olayiwola.

    To answer some of your queries the need to login every time could be negated by using single sign on. If you would like to discuss please let me know.

    The system is very intuitive and I often have feedback from end users that it is easy to use. I appreciate the ability to add and amend fields in order to support our service offer and ensure the correct risk information is captured.

    Pros

    I appreciate the ability to add and amend the fields displayed throughout the system via the admin site. The JCAD team are also good at taking on feedback and offering an innovative solution to aid our end users.

    Cons

    I would prefer more flexibility and a simpler process to build our own reports and dashboards which would improve our risk reporting and the data presented.

    Response from JCAD

    Hi Ryan,

    Thanks for taking the time to comment on our system and I have passed your comments about reporting on to our development team.

    Thanks again
