An RSI Managing Risk method

Preparedness planning

Preparedness planning is one of the methods used by Risk Sciences International to better manage risk.

Broadly

Preparedness planning involves establishing capabilities and processes to respond effectively to expected or potential risks. It includes resource allocation, scenario development, training, and interagency coordination. Preparedness reduces impact, accelerates recovery, and enhances public confidence. Success depends on realism, regular updating, and stakeholder alignment.

More specifically

RSI supports preparedness planning by conducting risk assessments, designing exercises, and integrating cross-sector inputs. Its planners work across jurisdictions and sectors to ensure that plans are relevant, operational, and supported. RSI’s focus on evidence-based scenarios and actionable protocols strengthens readiness and resilience.
