RISK MANAGEMENT
Many organizations are unaware of the threats and hazards that can impact a business. Through a methodological approach, an assessment identifies the risks to an organization’s operations (including mission, business functions, and reputation) that can disrupt the business. An assessment is imperative to risk management and incorporates analysis and mitigation strategies to prevent excessive downtime in an organization. These services include:
Risk Assessment
Supply Chain Evaluation
Training and Exercise
THREAT ASSESSMENT MANAGEMENT
A behavioral threat assessment is a collaborative process to identify, assess, and manage the risk of threats of targeted violence posed by an individual or group. Threat assessments take a proactive approach to help identify, mitigate, and manage threats of mass violence and are an ongoing process with interventions designed to de-escalate the situation. Rather than focusing on the individual’s characteristics, a threat assessment looks at the risk factors and where they are on a pathway to violence. Early intervention is crucial to preventing threats of mass violence from turning into acts of mass violence.
Threat assessments require a standardized, innovative, and collaborative approach at all levels. Response to threats to cause harm or mass violence helps to prevent cases from falling through the cracks, with the goal of providing early intervention to a person in crisis.
SCHOOL SAFETY COMPLIANCE
There are numerous requirements to comply with school safety laws. Most organizations cannot address all the demands and reporting necessary to comply. T. Michelle and Associates, LLC can work alongside organizations to fill the gaps and assist with the components required to keep schools safe.
COMPLIANCE REMEDIATION
Meeting regulatory/legal compliance can be overwhelming for organizations. In some cases, there are resource constraints, or the organization is not knowledgeable about the corrective action required to address compliance issues. T. Michelle and Associates, LLC can guide organizations by interpreting the findings and assisting organizations with remedial steps to get back on track.
PROGRAM EVALUATION
To determine the effectiveness of an entity’s programs, a Program Evaluation takes a systematic approach to assess an organization’s processes and outcomes to identify opportunities for improvement. The examination of implementations and outcomes allows an organization to identify areas within processes that are preventing a program’s efficacy.
