What is the RMIS Blueprint?
The RMIS Blueprint is Redhand Advisors’ structured, expert-designed program for evaluating and selecting a Risk Management Information System (RMIS). Built on decades of experience and powered by our proprietary AI-enabled selection platform, RMIS Blueprint streamlines what is often a confusing and high-stakes decision into a clear, data-driven process.
With RMIS Blueprint, your team benefits from the same proven methodology Redhand uses with large enterprises, risk pools, and carriers—delivered in a way that’s accessible, efficient, and tailored to your needs.

Why RMIS Blueprint?
Selecting a Risk Management Information System is complex—multiple stakeholders, detailed requirements, and competing vendor claims.
Most organizations struggle with RMIS decisions because:
-
Requirements are gathered informally, missing critical details - leading to overlooked functionality and costly gaps later.
-
Stakeholder opinions are fragmented and hard to align - resulting in conflict, delays, or water-down decisions.
-
Vendor marketing creates noise instead of clarity - making it difficult to separate sales spin from reality.
-
Internal teams lack the time or tools to run a comprehensive, fair, structured process - pushing the project to the back burner or rushing decisions.
-
Redhand’s Proprietary AI-enabled Platform – A centralized, cloud-based tool that captures stakeholder input, structures requirements, and enables transparent vendor comparisons.
-
Proven Frameworks – Needs assessments, RFP templates, demo scripts, and scoring matrices refined through hundreds of successful RMIS selections.
-
Independent Market Intelligence – Exclusive insights from Redhand’s annual RMIS Report and ongoing market intelligence and vendor research.
-
Flexible Guidance – Options ranging from self-directed access to fully facilitated support by Redhand consultants.
