How we help
Risk readiness
Know where you are now to build your future resilience.
The starting point for you – and us – is to know your current risk awareness and how well you are prepared for a crisis now.
One of our industry-leading specialists will visit your workplace, or meet remotely if more convenient, to undertake a ‘fresh eyes’ review – at no cost to you – to understand your risk appetite and business.
We will assess your current plans and processes and help you identify your risks and opportunities and how to build your capability relevant to your operating environment.
Resilience roadmap
From the risk readiness check, we will tailor a ‘Resilience Roadmap’ of next steps, which could include:
- Staged plan to build your resilience over time with an initial focus on high consequence and high-risk hazards.
- Recommendations for training and practise of your current plans.
- Membership proposal, which at a minimum will give you support to develop your risk controls and access to our Grab and Think knowledge bank, as well as other services as required, which could include an agreed number of hours per month from our Experts on Demand or Leadership Panel.
If your risk readiness check confirms you are a well-prepared resilient business, you may only need to tap into our services to test your crisis response plan or support you as you respond and recover from a major business shock.
Riskfacta members are able to access:
Risk controls manager
Identify and manage your risks
We will work with you to identify controls for your key hazards by tapping into our extensive knowledge of hazards common to most businesses. These hazards are grouped by category, e.g. health and safety, financial management, people and culture, psychosocial, cyber security, supply chain, and reputation.
We will also help you develop systems to track your controls, including:
- The number of risks/controls and their status
- Your business’s overall compliance in implementing controls
As an added service, we can provide contacts of businesses that may be able to help you implement a control, such as driver training providers, first aid trainers, insurance reviewers etc. if available.
Grab and think knowledge bank
Your one-stop source of helpful tools and information
The knowledge bank contains checklists, templates and guidance notes, which you can learn from and/or tailor to build your resilience, such as:
- Risk appetite statement
- Business continuity plan
- Emergency response plan
- Crisis response capability and checklist
- Cyber response and recovery plan
- Crisis communications
We work on the 80:20 rule, which means our checklists and templates are 80 per cent there – we’ve drawn on our extensive experience to cover most factors or measures you need to consider while allowing flexibility for you to tailor the documents to your operating environment.
We continually improve and expand the range of tools available to you as new information or situations emerge and based on member feedback.
If you need help to complete a plan let us know as our team will be able to help.
Training and practise
Being prepared doesn’t just happen
We can run scenarios to test the robustness of your crisis management plan and recommend changes. If you don’t have a plan, we can work with you to tailor a plan to your specific operations. Your business will benefit through greater:
- Individual and team capability and confidence
- Leadership capability, including complex decision-making
- Mitigation of productivity loss and downtime in the event of a crisis
If there are other businesses in your area with similar training needs, we can organise joint training to contain costs and provide the benefit of shared learning.
