Risk Analysis and Security Surveys

Risk Analysis

Threats materialise from unexpected sources, often when everything appears to have been done in terms of research, community relations and local liaison to anticipate such threats. Only by effective risk analysis can the correct level of resource be applied appropriately to achieve the necessary security and safety for your business and those who work within it.

On-the-ground survey and an assessment of the impact of possible eventualities, together with our geopolitical analysis, provide the input needed to complete the risk analysis including matters of strategy and detail.  This enables us to provide an assessment of the total risk carried by the project.  Frequently we become involved when some of this work has been done, in which case we take it from there.

This in turn provides the essential input for contingency planning and crisis management measures. 

Geopolitical Analysis

Through its associated geopolitical consultancy Tellus has access to an unusual level of experience and ability related to the commercial, diplomatic and political arenas.  This consulting team is highly qualified, active and dynamic.  Through the other elements of our business this ability provides critical support, and is adapted and applied to provide practical solutions in support of business progress, growth and profitability on the ground.

The same consultants are the sole contributors to Jane’s World Terrorism & Insurgency; the principle, single authoritative publication on world terrorism and terrorist groups.

Security Surveys Security surveys of operations or installations are an important part of any risk management programme.  The aim of these is to provide a clear and concise identification of vulnerabilities and weaknesses in the current enterprise; an appraisal of the arrangements in place, and to provide an assessment of losses and how control can be improved.
