Proxy SRO (Senior Responsible Owner)

Providing senior-level oversight and guidance to strengthen risk management, governance, and project assurance.

Proxy SRO Service Overview

Proxy SRO is a senior-level service designed to work alongside and strengthen your existing risk management teams. Whether you need additional capacity, specialist insight, or temporary senior oversight, this service offers flexible, collaborative support.

We bring experience delivering this function within high-assurance environments, including defence suppliers, where strong governance and clear risk ownership are essential. While MoD Secure-by-Design principles form part of our background—and are a requirement for organisations supplying into the MoD—they are just one component of the broader risk environment we help manage. Our role is to support your organisation in overseeing risks holistically across programmes, systems, and operational activity.

This service is particularly valuable at the start of projects, during the concept stage, to help shape design and risk approaches, but it is equally effective throughout a project’s lifecycle, providing oversight, guidance, and assurance as work progresses. We can also provide an independent SRO service for projects we are not otherwise involved in, for example where a supplier is working with another SME, ensuring impartial oversight and expert guidance is available across the wider supply chain.

For organisations preparing bids for MOD projects, assessments can be accompanied by brief, actionable recommendations, helping teams address potential risk concerns early and improve the robustness of their proposals.
