What is included
A practical workbook, not an empty grid
The template includes a ready-to-use risk register, scoring guidance, lookup values, a control register and an action tracker.
Formulas calculate inherent and residual scores from likelihood and impact. Data validation and conditional formatting help teams use consistent values.
Follow the fictional supplier-service worked example to connect one risk with its assessments, control evidence and unfinished action.

Questions answered
Frequently asked questions
Is the template free?
Yes. Parapet does not charge for templates, including risk and control catalogs, policies and procedures.
Does it replace risk management software?
A workbook is a useful starting point for one register. When several teams need controlled access, connected controls, workflows and consolidated reporting, a platform can reduce manual coordination.
For guidance before downloading, read the risk register fields and scoring guide. When the process needs controlled access, connected controls and consolidated reporting, see Parapet risk register software.
