Risk & Performance Center advocates an approach by consequences that offers a comprehensive and multidisciplinary vision of risk. By comprehensive assessment of the consequences of the degradation of a resource or the failure of a critical infrastructure, CRP differs from the traditional approaches of risk analysis. It responds directly to the needs of its public and private partners in developing planning tools for emergency measures, business continuity and evaluation of organizational resilience. Risk assessment and integration into management mechanisms are problematic rapidly emerging in Quebec, in Canada and around the world. In this broad scope, the CRP focuses its research on critical infrastructure.
Mission
The Centre risque & performance (CRP) is dedicated to the study of interdependencies between critical infrastructures represented, among others, by the electrical, natural gas, waterworks system, telecommunications and transportation networks. In concert with partners from the public and private sectors, our mission is to integrate risk and resiliency evaluation into the management mechanisms of industrial and governmental systems.
Objectifs
- Develop a methodology of interdependency evaluation and modeling.
- Create operational planning tools of business continuity and organizational resilience.
- Validate and integrate the CRP tools into day-to-day professional activities of network administrators.
- Train highly qualified personnel in the risk management and analysis field, in organizational resiliency and interdependency evaluation.
APPROACH
Based on the evaluation of acceptable consequences, the CRP uses a preventive approach that allows the consideration of all possible risks, whether technological, natural or human. It allows the study and the systematic integration of domino effects on the basic premise that all entities or organizations in a single socio-economic environment are interdependent at different degrees, in terms of technical, financial, human, natural and legal constraints.
