IT’S ‘BUSINESS AS USUAL’ FOR US
The outbreak of COVID-19 has been creating a significant impact on how businesses operate.
According to a recent survey by Gartner, Just 12% of more than 1,500 respondents believe their
businesses are highly prepared for the impact of coronavirus, while 26% believe that the virus will
have little or no impact on their business.
This lack of confidence shows that many organizations approach risk management in an
outdated and ineffective manner.
Most respondents (56%) rate themselves somewhat prepared, and 11% said they were either
relatively or very unprepared. Just 2% of respondents believe their business can continue as
normal, highlighting the huge range of businesses that could be affected by the outbreak.
Twenty-four percent of respondents expect little disruption, while the majority expect business to
continue at a reduced pace (57%), to be severely restricted (16%) or to be discontinued altogether
(1%).
Organizations often have policies in place to deal with most risks, but they don’t activate them
until it’s too late because no one is owning the risk or taking it seriously until it is fully manifested.
The threshold for a risk to generate executive action is often too high to enable an effective
response.
Having an enterprise risk management (ERM) function in place means that an organization is
more likely to see risks coming and then mitigate the impact of those emerging risks more swiftly
and effectively.
By using an ERM approach to identify and prepare for those specific events – and setting up
mechanisms to monitor for them – the best companies are better positioned to avoid major
disruption.
At Techwave, nothing is more important to us than the safety and well-being of our employees and
their families. Our employees are constantly reminded and educated about safety measures that
they need to undertake in order to safeguard themselves and their families from the pandemic.
Similarly, Techwave is committed to achieve uninterrupted service operations for its customers.
