RiskChallenger Resilience wants to make the Netherlands safer. We are keen on changes in our environment and know the uncertainties we face. Thanks to our years of knowledge and experience in risk management, we help Safety, Security, Crisis and Business Continuity Managers improve processes and safety solutions.

Serge, passionate safety consultant, coach and lecturer: “In the 20 groups that I have been able to train in the field of safety and risk management over the past 4 years, I have noticed the added value of my approach and RiskChallenger's view of risk management. Our integrated view, in which we not only look from 1 perspective but rather bring interests and tasks together, works very well, and that's part of the companies. Here we bring many things back to basics. Practice shows, for example, that 9 out of 10 companies are not sure what their interests to protect are, or what actually threatens these interests. It is remarkable, however, that a lot of money is now being spent on numerous measures. '

Approach

Our approach, which at first glance consists of three simple steps, makes a difference time and time again when properly developed in practice.
‍1. Inventory of the interests to be protected
‍We take stock of what that organization is really about, the interests to be protected. We do this together with the right people in that organization, often the employees in the workplace. We help categorise these interests by impact. This way, you know which processes, information, people and things are really important to the organization. Here, we look at the impact on availability, integrity and confidentiality.
‍2. Supervising the communicative risk assessment
‍We supervise the communicative risk assessment. We do this as objectively as possible, otherwise the risk assessment is of little value. We attach importance to the results, but at the same time remain constantly aware of the fact that we have to deal with uncertainties.
‍3. Clear advice
‍Based on the interests and risks, we arrive at clear advice regarding actions and measures to be taken. Here, we ensure that the organization can demonstrate that it is 'in control' and can show where there is a substantiated deviation from the norm or risks are accepted. After these 3 steps, the organization is no longer randomly deploying measures, hoping that this has any positive effect, but is focused on safety from an overview and insight. Here, complying with (imposed) standards goes hand in hand with actually assessing and reducing risks.

Resilience

Resilience stands for resilience; preventing and protecting against adverse events. If these do occur, organizations need to be sufficiently resilient to deal with them. In doing so, we take into account all phases of the safety chain. We focus on the risks that are relevant to the organization and provide insight into how to mitigate them in the best possible way. That's why we call our approach and tooling RiskChallenger Resilience.
