Delivered as an instant digital download on purchase.

Risk Register Template for Small Businesses

Most risk registers show you where a risk stands today. This one shows you two things: the inherent risk before any controls are in place, and the current risk after your mitigations. Pre-loaded with 10 founder-relevant risks, automatic scoring and dropdown controls throughout. Compatible with Excel and Google Sheets.

£ 12.00

Action & Decision Tracker

Two tabs that work together - an action tracker for everything that needs doing, and a decision log for everything that gets agreed. Because tracking actions to completion is only half the problem. Pre-loaded with examples, colour-coded priority and status flags, instant download.

£ 12.00

Supplier & Contract Register

A central view of every supplier relationship, with renewal alerts that calculate automatically from today's date. Flags contracts 90 and 180 days before renewal so auto-renewals never catch you off guard again. Pre-loaded with 8 common supplier types. Compatible with Excel and Google Sheets.

£ 12.00

Policy Ownership & Review Schedule

Having a policy is not the same as governing it. This register gives every policy a named owner, a version number and a review date — with automatic alerts flagging overdue reviews before they drift unnoticed. Pre-loaded with 12 common business policies. Compatible with Excel and Google Sheets.
