Built for How Your Industry Actually Works
Public Finance Compliance Risk Register
Public finance legislation imposes specific obligations that must be documented and monitored continuously.
- Dimeri creates a structured compliance risk register mapping every legislative obligation to its responsible official, evidence requirement, monitoring schedule, and current compliance status.
- When a deadline approaches or a control weakens, the accounting officer and relevant official are notified automatically.
Audit Readiness & Finding Management
Audit findings including irregular expenditure, fruitless and wasteful expenditure, and internal control deficiencies are indicators of systemic risk management failures that require structured remediation.
- Dimeri tracks every finding from the preliminary audit report through to corrective action implementation and verified closure.
- Management responses are linked to specific risk register entries, root cause analyses are captured in structured format, and audit committee members can see the remediation status of every prior-year finding.
Procurement & Supply Chain Risk Management
Public sector procurement is one of the most heavily regulated and scrutinised risk areas.
- Deviations from competitive bidding, sole-source awards without documented justification, and contractor performance failures all generate audit findings and disciplinary proceedings.
- Dimeri tracks every procurement risk from bid specification through supplier selection, contract award, and delivery performance monitoring.
Service Delivery & Programme Risk Tracking
Public sector institutions are accountable for delivering the services and programmes for which they are funded.
- Capital underspending, infrastructure delays, grant programme failures, and beneficiary registration backlogs all represent service delivery risks.
- Dimeri creates programme-level risk registers tracking delivery milestones, expenditure patterns, and output indicators against annual performance plan targets.

Control & Incident Tracking
Three Lines of Defence — Tracked and Tested
Every risk in your register links to preventive, detective, and corrective controls. Effectiveness percentages update as evidence is logged. Full audit trail for regulators.
Procurement Compliance & Delegation Controls
All procurement transactions above delegation thresholds require documented justification, competitive process evidence, and accounting officer approval before award. Deviations from policy require formal approval and are logged automatically in the compliance risk register.
Internal Audit & Compliance Monitoring
Risk-based internal audit programme aligned to audit focus areas. Findings feed directly into the risk register. Quarterly compliance assessments against public finance requirements, with results reported to the audit committee.
Audit Finding Remediation & Root Cause Management
Structured management response and corrective action workflow for every audit finding. Root cause analysis required before corrective action is accepted. Implementation tracked to verified closure before the next audit cycle.

Why Spreadsheets Fail in This Industry
Spreadsheets cannot handle the complexity, volume, and real-time demands of modern industrial risk management. Here is where they consistently break down — and what Dimeri does instead.
