Risk Management
Risk management is the ongoing process of identifying, assessing and responding to risk.
Risk is ever present. It is being able to identify and treat it that will give you the competitive edge.
Advice you can act on
Businesses that wish to capitalise on opportunities cannot afford to minimise their approach to risk management.
At Sentinel Solutions our experienced risk management consultants will provide you with a viable solution, delivering professional, trusted and experienced advice to suit your unique situation.
We ensure that our clients are given the best guidance to mitigate the increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous operating environments they work in.
Identify
Who and what could be harmed, by whom, where and when. We look at people, assets, information and reputation.
Assess
How likely each threat is and how serious the impact would be, set against the controls you already have.
Treat
Practical measures to avoid, reduce, transfer or accept each risk, prioritized by cost and effect.
Monitor and review
Conditions change. We track the indicators that matter and revisit the plan before it goes out of date.
Built for a VUCA world
Volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity are not reasons to stay away. They are conditions to plan for.
Volatility
Situations change quickly. We build plans with clear triggers, so you know in advance what you will do when conditions shift.
Uncertainty
Information is incomplete. We combine local sources and on-the-ground assessment to narrow what is unknown.
Complexity
Risks interact. We look at security, medical, legal and logistical exposure together rather than one at a time.
Ambiguity
Signals can be read several ways. We tell you plainly what we think they mean, and how confident we are.
Our risk services
Delivered as a single piece of work or as continuing support, for organizations and individuals.
Threat and risk assessments
Country, city, site and individual assessments that set out the threats you face, how likely they are and what to do about them. Written for decision-makers, not for the archive.
Security surveys and audits
Physical, procedural and personnel security reviews of offices, residences, project sites and events, with prioritized, costed recommendations.
Travel risk management
Pre-travel briefings, itinerary review, journey management, check-in procedures and support on the ground, so your duty of care is met wherever your people go.
Crisis and incident management
Crisis management plans, team training and exercises, and hands-on support during an incident, from medical emergencies and civil unrest to evacuation.
Business continuity and resilience
Plans that keep critical operations running through disruption, with clear roles, alternate sites and tested communication routes.
Security policies and procedures
Security management frameworks, standard operating procedures and contingency plans written to fit how your organization actually works.
Embedded security advisors
An experienced Sentinel advisor placed within your team for a project or a period, giving you local risk assessments, project security and operational coordination day to day.
