Risk and resilience management

Societies and companies are confronted by a growing number of natural and man-made threats. VTT offers novel risk assessment means and methods to detect, prevent and recover from incidents and to design resilient systems for unprecedented challenges.
Key facts about risk and resilience management
Risk and resilience management improves organisations’ ability to succeed in uncertain and dynamic settings.
VTT has strong international track record in systematic risk, safety and reliability assessments for industrial applications and in areas of civil infrastructure, national security, logistics and transportation.
We provide a comprehensive portfolio of risk and resilience management services, both at industrial and societal levels.

How to prepare for the risks and hazards brought on by climate change, autonomisation, digitalisation, IoT and urbanisation? With risk and resilience management companies and societies can successfully secure their operations in today’s increasingly complex environment. VTT offers a large portfolio of risk and resilience management services at various levels, ranging from industrial applications to national security and civil infrastructure. At all levels, we approach risks from a systemic perspective, with state-of-the-art methods and techniques to address comprehensively the structure of the whole risk system.
Competitiveness through industrial risk management
Successful introduction of new technologies, such as autonomous systems and increased level of digitalisation, requires deep understanding of market needs and systematic development of system performance, safety and reliability aspects.
Do not let risks become a barrier to your organisation’s health, wealth or growth. Verified safety-by-design and security-by-design provide you the contemporary competitive edge over your rivals.
VTT helps companies in assessing the risks of new technologies and assists in improving a solution’s overall performance and profitability throughout the product’s whole lifespan. We have long experience and strong international track record in systematic risk, safety and reliability assessments for industrial applications and in the transportation and logistics sectors.
Securing societal resilience
Continuity of business and operations means securing the safety of people, governments, companies and infrastructures in all conditions. The availability of vital supplies and services must be safeguarded both under frequently occurring events and under exceptional circumstances, such as environmental disasters and malicious attacks. Let us help you in systematic identification of critical operations and functions, evaluation of internal and external threats, definition of safety and security requirements and the establishment of appropriate mitigation measures and effective intervention points.
Risk-aware and resilient organisations – ready for the turbulent future
Do not let risks become a barrier to your organisation’s health, wealth or growth. Successful organizations apply risk management as an integral part of everyday operations, from the design of products and services to the maintenance of assets. VTT’s comprehensive risk management services apply to all lifecycle phases. VTT helps you to turn your risks into opportunities in the dynamic and interconnected future.
