Battleground Live puts risk, business continuity, crisis and emergency management on one platform, built by the people who manage resilience for a living. This is where partners find the platform story, the proof that closes deals, and the kit to sell it with confidence.
The platform story and the proof that closes deals, or the partner programme and the full brand and sales kit. Everything a partner needs lives in these two hubs.
The four engines and twelve modules, RAiDAR AI, the proof, the competitor comparison, how to sell it, the decks and how clients go live.

Three phases, Design, Implement, Embed, delivered crawl, walk, run. The first module is live in 8–12 weeks. Every onboarding is tailored heavily to each client: their language, their structure, their regulatory context. The sequence below is the standard spine, configured to fit.
Nominate platform, technical, risk and resilience owners and confirm decision authority before configuration starts.
SSO & directory provisioning (Entra/Azure, ADFS), 2FA, phone-number format, access & security first.
Business units, departments, locations, geographies, teams and industries, the language everything else inherits.
Consequence table, criticality descriptions and criticality/time-criticality tiers.
Risk classes, controls, action plans, risks, and risk & compliance incidents.
BIA dictionaries, dependency & IT-application dictionaries, BCP templates and assets.
Plans, resilience incidents and simulations, then data import, validation, readiness sign-off, training and hypercare.
Battleground doesn't do big-bang rollouts. Clients start where the pain is, prove value, then expand, which is why time-to-value is measured in weeks, not quarters.
Build the BIA, print BCPs, develop the risk & control profile and action plans.
Online & in-app response and recovery planning, control assurance, risk appetite.

Simplify your BIA into a single system, and walk out of a one-hour workshop with the plan already built.
An online, guided Business Impact Analysis that captures your processes and critical operations, determines criticality, and maps dependencies, then links in real time to the plans. Run a custom workshop virtually and the client leaves with a Plan on a Page (PoaP), complete and ready to use.
GRC for the people who manage risk, not just the risk team.
A pragmatic, proven way to capture risk appetite and tolerance, build clear and meaningful risk profiles, and connect risks to everything else in the platform, processes, controls, applications, providers and accountability. Designed by practitioners so frontline leaders engage meaningfully with risk.
Every control linked to the risks, processes and providers it protects.
Fully integrated capture and reporting of controls, mitigation strategies, assurance assessments and improvement plans. Rate control effectiveness in a simple guided process, on both a design and operational basis.
Improvement that actually gets done, and tracked.
Create a plan, define its description and delivery timeline, and link it to the risks, controls, incidents and compliance data it addresses. Track delivery end to end and close with supporting evidence.
Map an obligation once, and watch it stay current as your controls change.
Practical, data-informed insight into your compliance position. Obligations are linked directly to risks, controls and operations, so readiness is live, not a point-in-time spreadsheet. For CPS 230 and DORA, that live mapping is exactly what the examiner asks to see.
Efficiently manage any incident on the go, web or mobile, even offline.
Initiate and manage incidents from the mobile app or web portal. Find the right people fast through escalating call-out, bring the right plan to life, assign and track tasks, and capture every action in a central, non-editable log.
Response and recovery plans at your team's fingertips.
Build any type of response and resilience plan online, personalised to roles and individuals, centrally managed and up to date in real time on mobile. The app takes your plans and lets you run them in real life, in real time.
Turn exercising into an immersive learning environment, tabletops that aren't theatre.
Build reusable, scalable exercises in a safe, closed environment where no material leaks outside the system. Deliver virtually, in person, or both, you control the timeline and trigger events for maximum impact. Every message, task and decision is logged for audit-ready, after-action evidence.
Two-way mass communication, active 24/7, with every action logged.
Reach the right people instantly via SMS, email and push, targeted by profile, team and demographics, and collect individual responses in real time. Integrates automatically with Battleground incidents, managed from web or mobile.
Prepare for disruption and mobilise teams with secure, real-time chat.
Two-way secure messaging built into every plan and incident, on web and mobile. Initiate conference calls, video calls and group messaging, with all communication captured as evidence alongside the decisions.
Know before it hits, warnings and weather events connected to your response.
Emergency warnings, weather events and other incidents surfaced and connected to your response plans, so a developing threat triggers the right people and the right plan. (Powered by a bushfire.io licence.)
Centrally manage policies, and let RAiDAR analyse them against the standards.
Centrally manage all policies, procedures and frameworks; map them to regulatory standards and objectives; and keep them current with automated renewal notifications. Included in every package.
RAiDAR is Battleground's own AI, built into every field of the platform. It works the way ChatGPT or Claude does, except it knows the customer's resilience programme and runs on their live data, powered by Battleground's own MCP. Every output is kept human verified for audit defensibility, and it is fully encrypted, so the data never leaves the customer's control and is never used to train the model.
There are several layers of AI built into Battleground Live, all encrypted and all optional. The point is simple: you put one instruction in and get board-ready work out, drawn from your own live data rather than a generic model. Here is what partners can show a client it does.
Ask RAiDAR a question about your programme and get an answer drawn straight from your own live resilience data in seconds. Every answer keeps a person in the loop for audit defensibility, so what you take to a board or a regulator stands up. It reads across risk, controls, plans and incidents at once, not one silo at a time.
Describe the report you need in a single sentence and RAiDAR writes it to the standard or regulation you name, formatted and ready to export. Work that used to take days of collation and manual formatting lands in moments. You present from current data, never from a stale snapshot.
Build a full dashboard from one instruction, save it once, and it stays live as the underlying data changes. Each view sits over a digital twin of your processes, people, workplaces, applications and dependencies. The twin moves as the business moves, so the picture is always the real one.
RAiDAR is embedded across every part of the platform, so it is easy to enter data, manage it and report on it. It streamlines inputs, lifts data quality and connects the dots between the modules. The heavy lifting comes out of the day job, and the judgement stays with your people.
Point the AI tools your teams already use at your live Battleground data through simple connections. You can build reusable artifacts and board reports from it without exporting anything or rekeying a thing. The platform meets your stack rather than forcing a rip and replace.
RAiDAR can build full scenario exercises drawn from your current resilience posture rather than a generic template. Rehearsals reflect the business as it actually is, with the right services, dependencies and people in the room. Readiness is tested against reality, not a hypothetical.
RAiDAR runs on Battleground's own MCP and connects through open APIs to the rest of the organisation and the tools teams already run. Data flows both ways, so the platform grows with you over time. It sits at the centre without boxing your programme into one fixed shape.
Every layer is fully encrypted and optional, your data stays inside your control and is never used to train the model. The AI keeps improving over time, and you help shape it by requesting the capabilities our team builds next. Security and momentum are not a trade-off here.
Radar did not replace pilots, it changed how they fought. RAiDAR uses AI not to decide, but to structure. It standardises language, extracts obligations and aligns controls into a common syntax, so leaders get a coherent, comparable risk picture in one place. It converges the work where people need consistency, and it leaves divergence, the judgement on anomalies and emerging threats, to people. That balance is what keeps every output defensible and keeps a human accountable for the call.

Everything you need to represent Battleground well sits here. Take the logos, colours, type, icons, imagery and partner badges, follow the short usage notes so the brand stays consistent, and use the admin guidance to register deals and reach the right people. If you ever need a format that is not here, ask us and we will send it across the same day.
Each logo is supplied in three formats so it works everywhere. Use the SVG for anything on screen or on the web because it stays sharp at any size, the PNG when you need a transparent image for slides or documents, and the PDF for print and for your designer. The primary logo is the default, the white version is for dark or photographic backgrounds, and the mono version is for single-colour printing.
A few simple habits keep the brand strong wherever it appears. Give the logo room to breathe, keep it legible at small sizes, and never redraw or restyle it. When in doubt, place the logo on a clean light background and let the colour come from the artwork itself.
Victory teal leads the brand and should carry headings, key accents and links. Rich Black is the colour for body text, and the softer greens and creams make calm, premium backgrounds. AI Pink belongs to RAiDAR and our AI story, so use it for small highlights rather than large areas. The hex values below match the master palette exactly.
Battleground uses Poppins everywhere, from slides to documents to the web. Pair a bold or extra-bold headline with a lighter supporting line, and let one word carry a Victory-teal accent when you want emphasis. Keep body copy in regular weight and in Rich Black so pages stay easy to read.
These are the icons we use across the platform and in our decks, one for each part of Battleground Live. On a light background, sit each icon on a Victory-green coin as shown so it stands out, and on a green background let it sit on its own. Keep the set consistent rather than mixing in icons from other libraries.

Risk & Resilience wheelA multi-site aged care provider used Battleground to coordinate resilience and inform management decisions across its sites, including through the COVID-19 pandemic, and was recognised by the RMIA for its response.
An aged care service provider needed to inform management decisions and coordinate resilience across multiple sites. Organisations like this can be subject to a wide range of unforeseen circumstances, a fire, flood, cyber-attack or a drop in the market, each of which can have significant consequences and must be managed immediately and effectively.
The provider uses the Battleground platform's reporting tools to inform management decisions, alongside incident management, planning and simulations across its sites. The system is incident-agnostic, so any type of incident can be planned for and managed. Because the mobile app stores data on the device since the last synchronisation, people can access the information relevant to them on the fly, even when mobile networks are overwhelmed or unavailable, with every action logged and stored locally until it can be sent to the web app. Role-awareness means each person sees only the information relevant to their role during an incident, rather than being overwhelmed.
The provider successfully navigated the pressures and demands of the COVID-19 environment across multiple sites, ending with recognition by the RMIA for the Most Outstanding COVID-19 Organisational Resilience Response (Health & Community), a response supported by the Battleground platform and suite of tools. Completing the relevant Battleground modules also enhanced the organisation's compliance with local regulations.
A state-wide manager of electricity infrastructure runs its entire business continuity programme on Battleground, online and via the mobile app, managing incidents from a contractor fatality to cyber security events.
As a state-wide manager of electricity infrastructure in Australia, the need for business continuity was paramount. A one-of-a-kind analysis was needed to manage staff and contractors, through to cyber security incidents and COVID-19.
The company's crisis team is initiated via automatic conference calling, after which they follow the checklists provided in the mobile application; all activity logs for the team are captured online in Battleground. Battleground developed the Business Impact Analyses, BCP and crisis plans, incident management and simulations, delivered online and via the Battleground Response mobile application.
Using the full potential of Battleground, the client has managed incidents ranging from the death of a contractor through to cyber security incidents and COVID-19. For business continuity, the company's BIAs are performed in Battleground, with paper-based plans automatically populated after each one before being translated into an online, app-based version.
A financial services client tested how its executive and board make decisions under a live ransomware scenario, and came away with clearer delegations and stronger crisis capability.
The client wished to complete a crisis exercise that focused on the interactions between the executive and the board in crisis response, and on responding to ransomware demands.
Battleground facilitated a crisis exercise that commenced with executive engagement and the mobilisation of response plans. This required management to step through decision-making around how to respond to a ransomware scenario, including Board Chair engagement and decision-making, as well as the communication of outcomes to key stakeholders.
Battleground identified opportunities to improve, not only within crisis response but also in the clarity of delegations from the board to management, enabling the client's executive team to build capability in meeting the board's needs in a crisis scenario.
A financial services firm consolidated its BCM maturity with a five-hour cyber exercise spanning IT, operations, an executive crisis team and four response teams, complete with a real media crew.
The client needed to consolidate recently enhanced BCM maturity through a cyber-based exercise focused on timely escalation and the coordination of multiple teams managing the strategic, technical and communications response, the latter incorporating media engagement via the participation of a media crew in the exercise.
Battleground facilitated an exercise of five hours' duration, involving escalation of the event from IT and operational channels through to the activation of an executive-level crisis team and four additional response teams. Battleground brought in a camera crew to exercise the media capability of the business through orchestrated stand-up and '4-Corners' style interviews.
The client further enhanced its crisis capability and skill in media engagement, whilst identifying valuable improvements regarding crisis team operations, crisis communications, decision-making rights and responsibilities, and the invocation of Business Continuity Plans.
A national retailer across the outdoor, sports and auto sectors uses Battleground to run BIAs at scale, participants leave a one-hour workshop with a complete, ready-to-use business continuity plan.
As one of Australia's largest retailers across the outdoor, sports and auto sectors, the need to develop and manage business impact analyses and resilience planning was high.
Given the large reach of the company, Battleground was selected for their BIAs given the ability to run custom workshops virtually, quickly and online.
Battleground seamlessly manages the entire business impact analysis, resilience planning and incident management nationwide. Participants leave with a business continuity plan after only a one-hour workshop, complete and ready to use.
A global super fund consolidated 73 BIAs, 21 BCPs and its crisis management plan onto Battleground, and uses it every day as business-as-usual across three jurisdictions.
One of Australia's largest super funds, with offices in Australia, the UK and the US, keeps 73 Business Impact Analyses, 21 Business Continuity Plans and its Crisis Management Plan on the platform, ready for easy activation.
Battleground Live allowed the fund to consolidate all of this information into one simple platform, enabling anyone in the organisation to quickly understand situations, their impact and business criticality. The fund uses Battleground every day as part of BAU, with BCM champions across the business trained to maximise the platform for BIAs and planning. The crisis team is initiated through the platform, following the relevant plan checklists in the mobile application, with all activity logs captured online.
The fund uses Touchbase to contact staff globally when security events occur, such as physical threats. With a local and global presence across Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States, there are dedicated phone numbers for each jurisdiction, so when staff receive communication from that number, they know it could only have been initiated by the fund. All of the fund's crisis exercises are designed in the Simulations module, and the Incident Management module is used to manage fund-wide resilience incidents.
