An RSI Understanding Risk method
Concept, model, code and decision-support tool development
Concept, model, code and decision-support tool development is one of the methods used by Risk Sciences International to better understand risk.
Broadly
Developing decision-support tools involves creating structured representations—mathematical models, software, or structured frameworks—that help stakeholders visualize, analyze, or prioritize risks. These tools support reproducibility, scalability, and consistency across decisions. Whether focused on environmental impacts, regulatory triggers, or economic scenarios, such tools make complex risk data actionable. Their success depends on clarity, usability, and alignment with user needs and constraints.
More specifically
RSI has a long-standing practice of developing customized decision-support tools, ranging from exposure calculators to regulatory impact models. Its teams combine scientific modeling, user-centered design, and policy knowledge to ensure tools meet practical demands. RSI emphasizes transparency in model logic and documentation, allowing clients to maintain, audit, and explain tool outputs long after deployment. This method supports a range of Understanding Risk engagements and often bridges into risk management workflows.
