How the process works
A typical risk engineering service follows three simple steps:
What’s involved
Engagements are designed to minimise disruption and usually take under two hours. Our risk engineers work with customers to explore:
- Operations – Current jobs, workflows and pressure points
- People and capability – Recruitment, onboarding, training and culture
- Asset management – Equipment maintenance and telematics
- Emergency readiness – Incident response, roles and communication
- Site safety and security – Processes, technologies and fatigue risk
- Specific risk factors – Geography, cargo type, load complexity and more
When to get a risk engineer involved
Risk engineers are often engaged when:
- Incidents are becoming more frequent
- The business has expanded or changed how it operates
- New cargo types, locations or fleet assets are being introduced
- A recent incident has raised safety or performance concerns
- There’s a desire to improve processes, training or compliance
Risk engineering works best when it’s proactive, not just something you turn to after an incident. Some of the most valuable engagements happen during business-as-usual operations.
Early support can help prevent bigger issues down the line and set the business up for long-term success.
