SUMMARY
The Origami Risk system, competitively procured in 2012, is a critical tool used by the Risk
Management and Health & Safety organizations to manage their day-to-day operations. The
management and settlement of claims and litigation is a duty delegated under the Resolution to
staff, and which Health and Safety and Risk Management adhere to. For Health & Safety, the
system must be used to comply with Industrial Insurance laws and regulations, meet federal and
state reporting requirements, and capture important hazard and safety events critical for the
development of safety improvements port wide. For Risk Management, the system is used to
capture and track all information associated with claim events, losses, litigation expense, and
recoveries. The Origami system provides an online portal for self-reporting which streamlines
the intake process and increases the reporting rate.
This authorization will extend the current contract through May 2033. Annual costs are budgeted
in the Risk Management and Health and Safety Operating Budgets.
