Awareness has infinite value in continuity management since understanding what may happen is the key to prevention.
Continuity planning is not only about prevailing over disruption – it’s also about empowering your organisation with the knowledge of what could go wrong and what impact it would have – a requirement of many regulatory bodies worldwide.
With the Risk Assessment module, you’ll discover any technical, human, natural, or proximal (e.g., nearby highway) risks that threaten any location, as well as the consequences and likelihoods for each identified risk.
The Risk Assessment module provides planners with a tool to assess risks to their organisation by:
- Finding, understanding, and documenting risks
- Determining the consequences and the likelihoods for identified risks and determining
the existence and efficacy of existing controls
- Comparing the estimated risk against defined risk criteria to determine whether the level of risk requires mitigation by implementing risk treatment measures
It's a tool that automates the collection and analysis tasks that must be completed as part of a risk assessment, including identifying, analyzing, and evaluating technical, human, and natural risks, as well as risks that may be present due to the proximity of a site to high-risk facilities or infrastructure.
