In other words, cost justification
means not spending more than the benefits derived
are worth. Our range of consultancy services may

All aspects of the Security Strategy, which a company may put in place, should be as a consequence of a detailed analysis of the problems. From a starting point of Threat Analysis, there needs to be a clear and accurate understanding of the likelihood of the threats (probability) affecting the assets (risk profile) and the loss which may flow from a risk event (criticality). The Security Survey will then assess how the existing security provisions that are in place, help or hinder the management of risk.
We recognised, many years ago, that companies of all sizes often adopt a piecemeal approach to their risk and security issues. Also, the larger the global reach of that company, often the more disparate its approach to a consolidated security programme became. Regional threat issues around the world will often nullify an approach to security which may have been sufficient in the West.
Also, it is our experience that even those companies with a strong corporate philosophy often fall woefully short of applying their strong corporate disciplines to issues not 'core' to their business. This may be ignorance of the range of threats, be it industrial espionage, theft, vandalism, extortion or strategic attacks, to name but a few, but, more likely, time, resources and expertise are unavailable to devote to such issues.
At Future Risk Management, all the necessary consultancy, technical services and training are available under one roof, so as to achieve a common and ordered approach to a company's or organisation's needs. We can develop security strategy and write policy and procedure documents to reduce an organisations risk and exposure to risk before it happens.

Business Continuity & Crisis Planning
|
Whilst a fundamental aspect of risk management in general, it is necessary to approach crisis and contingency planning as an issue in its own right. A detailed risk analysis will have identified those events which may be considered serious emergencies, as distinct from other, more manageable security issues.
Increasingly, companies recognise the necessity to prepare for what we refer to as 'special contingencies' such as terrorist activity, bomb threats and bomb incidents, extortion, intentional product contamination, armed robbery, kidnap and ransom and, where applicable, emergency evacuation of ex-pat employees. These risks are over and above the traditional ones of fire, flood, collapse and accidental product contamination.
