Abstract: The paper deals with the development of risk management plans for the Information Technology Center of Department of Comptroller General under Ministry of Finance in Thailand. There were a total of 14 risk factors that would potentially impact the operations of the Government Financial Management Information System. The dependency on contractors, and public protests and riots were perceived to be a high risk contributor. Afterwards, the plans to help minimise or transfer risk were developed such as benchmarking, backup site, remote control centre and contractor audits. Furthermore, the discussions with the members from other public agencies and private firms were made. The international comparisons were also conducted. Finally, the implications were discussed.
