Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC)

Today’s rapidly changing business and regulatory environment requires thinking about risk in new ways.

Organisations face a range of pressures brought on by the need to balance transformation and creating value with compliance and changing regulation, a fast-moving and unpredictable risk landscape, and growing competition.

Taking an innovative approach to managing and enhancing your governance, risk and compliance activities can help you seize opportunities, stay ahead of uncertainty, and meet stakeholder expectations.

How we can help

BCM framework development and implementation

We offer end-to-end BCM implementation covering the BCM lifecycle in the following phases:

  • BCM framework to govern your organisation’s BCM programme
  • Risk assessment and business impact analysis to understand and identify the potential threats and your organisation’s critical business activities
  • Business continuity strategy to enable the organisation to resume business operations with the most practical and cost-effective solutions
  • Business continuity procedure to document workable processes to be performed by employees during a crisis. Aside from Crisis Management Plan and Business Continuity Management Plans, we can also assist to develop other contingency plans catered to specific situations to further support your company’s BCM programme, such as IT Disaster Recovery Plan, Pandemic Plan, Contingency Funding Plan, Recovery and Resolution Plan and more.
  • Exercising and testing to ensure that the plans and strategies developed are effective and reliable

We are also able to implement selected phases focused to fit your organisation’s objectives and needs.

Incident and crisis management exercises

Putting the procedures and strategies to test not only helps to identify gaps and opportunities in your BCM programme, but also creates awareness among your employees. We offer the following types of exercises and tests:

  • Notification tree exercise
    An exercise to evaluate the effectiveness of the layered hierarchical communication structure practised in your company for crisis communication purposes.
  • Desktop walkthrough exercise
    A facilitated tabletop discussion for participants to walk through the response and recovery actions based on realistic scenarios crafted.
  • Crisis simulation exercise
    An engaging “live” exercise that involves participants in role-playing and interacting with one another to address scenarios crafted for the simulation.

Aside from testing Crisis Management Plan and Business Continuity Management Plans, we are experienced in conducting exercises involving the testing of various contingency plans, such as Emergency Evacuation Plan, Crisis Communication Plan, IT Disaster Recovery Plan, Cyber Incident Response Plan and Contingency Funding Plan. We are able to tailor scenarios and materials to help you achieve your exercise objectives and requirements.

BCM maturity assessment

Already have a BCM programme in your organisation but unsure how relevant and robust it is? We offer the following solutions to address these concerns:

  • BCM effectiveness review
    An independent assessment of your organisation’s BCM documentations against best practices or relevant standards and guidelines to identify gaps and improvement points. This review can also be part of your organisation’s internal audit plan.
  • BCM maturity assessment
    An evaluation to study the maturity of your organisation’s existing BCM capabilities against best practices and relevant standards and guidelines.

Awareness and training

While plans and infrastructure are important, the success of your BCM programme depends on your most valuable asset–your people. It is important that your employees are aware of your company’s BCM programme and their respective roles and responsibilities. To help you achieve this, we can conduct customised training workshops or refresher courses based on your objectives and target audience.
