We have undertaken high-level independent reviews for important projects.

Risk assessment, when properly facilitated, supports critical decisions and helps to ensure successful outcomes.
Read moreRisk assessment and risk treatment
We describe here a practical approach to risk assessment and risk treatment based on ISO 31000. We stress the importance of preparation to ensure the assessment is efficient and suitably rigorous and reliable.

We can provide a rigorous, systematic and defensible way of evaluating the effectiveness of an organisation’s approach to managing risk, leading to a reliable and practical work program and plan for improvement.
Read moreRisk management framework development
We help organisations develop, implement and enhance the frameworks they adopt for managing risk: how they express their intentions and then provide the necessary capacity and capability.
Read moreRisk treatment
Risk treatment involves a process to modify a risk by changing the consequences that could occur or their likelihood. This process requires creative consideration of options and detailed design, both inputs being necessary to find and select the best risk treatment approach.
Read moreRoot cause analysis
All organisations should use systematic methods for learning lessons from both successes and failures. These lessons should then lead to actions that disseminate those lessons and also codify them so that the organisation actively learns and improves.
