RISK SOLUTIONS
Resource Update
New Content Highlights
The latest update introduces expanded guidance across several areas, including:
- Self-insured retentions and deductibles
- Aggregate limits
- Information technology
- Crime insurance and fidelity bonds
- Unarmed and armed security
- Automotive services
These additions are intended to address coverage considerations and align the manual with operational and risk management practices.
Revisions and Enhancements
In addition to new material, a couple of existing sections have been refined. Updates include revised guidance on agreements between public agencies and expanded information on equine insurance.
We encourage members to review the updated CRTM to familiarize themselves with these enhancements and continue alignment with best practices.
Online Contractual Risk Transfer Tool
Members also have access to an online Contractual Risk Transfer Tool that explains how properly executed contractual risk transfer shifts financial responsibility for losses to vendors, contractors, or other parties who control the relevant risk. Unlike traditional self-paced training, this resource serves as both a practical primer on the topic and an on-the-job reference tool to complement the CRTM, designed to guide daily decisions on contractual risk transfer.
Resources can be accessed and downloaded via the online library located in the resources section of the Authority’s website. Resources available in Word format are for members to customize to agency-specific policies and procedures. Trainings can be accessed through the Authority’s online learning management system.
If you have questions, please contact your regional risk manager.
