The IMPACT Wheel connects risk identification, measurement, action, monitoring, and correction into a single integrated process. This creates a shift in how compliance operates: risk assessment becomes continuous and real-time monitoring reflects current conditions, not predefined plans actions are taken based on live information issues are surfaced through multiple channels insight feeds back into decision-making The model is designed to be flexible and organisation-agnostic.
