Description
The role Domain Expert is responsible for assisting the management of risks by delivering input from a specific domain perspective (consulting role). His special knowledge about a particular domain in the enterprise serves as a basis for identifying and treating the specific risks in that area. Additionally, the role participates in the process of monitoring the risks. The Domain Expert may be an internal or external (consultant) person. Due to his role specification he will not be responsible for any of the Risk Management processes and hence not appear as a role in any of the swimlanes in the model. Often the Domain Expert role is assigned to the same person as the Risk Owner role (especially in smaller enterprises), due to a flat organisational hierarchy.
