The concept of managing uncertainty has become increasingly important across the modern world economy. In the fall of 2013, the City of Fort Collins developed the Strategic Risk Management (SRM) program. The program was designed to implement a global best practice, increase operational effectiveness, wisely allocate limited resources, and grow stakeholder and council confidence. Capitalizing on its Culture of Innovation competency, the City of Fort Collins is one of the front runners of the municipal world in instituting a risk management program of this kind.
