The need

All organisations need to be alert to things that are going on around them.  For example, they may need to be alert to:

• Changes in public opinion, or in the opinion of other key stakeholders, in areas that are relevant to high profile or key areas of your activities
• Events that could invalidate critical overt or covert assumptions made when determining either corporate strategy or the conduct of critical projects or initiatives

The urgency

Given the rise of social media, RSS feeds and 24 hour global news, leisurely reactions to unexpected events and adverse public allegations are a luxury that has long since passed.  It is vital that all organisations are able to respond rapidly and competently - virtually instantaneously if necessary.  

Creating the radar

You can considerably speed up your response by spotting the crisis before it explodes. However, smart filtering of that information is vital - if you are tapping a wide breadth of sources, you could easily be engulfed.

Our solution

DBRC’s events and risk radar process helps you to:

• Identify the areas in which you need to focus your monitoring and information gathering
• Set up processes and reporting mechanisms to filter that information
• Ensure that you respond appropriately, according to the implication of the information and the required response speed.

Integration with DBRC processes

The risk radar can be integrated into our:

• Assumption management
• Corporate route mapping
• Crisis management planning
• Risk Management implementation
