Risk Management
Our Approach…
Risk Management Services for SMEs
At Tortuga Consulting Ltd, we help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) identify, assess, and manage risks effectively using the globally recognized ISO 31000 framework as a reference point. We then develop a bespoke risk management framework incorporating any specific standard, industry or legislative requirements. Our approach focuses on non-financial risks, ensuring your business is resilient, compliant, and prepared for uncertainties.
What is ISO 31000?
ISO 31000 provides principles and generic guidelines to assist organizations in establishing, implementing, operating, maintaining and continually improving their risk management framework.
It is not specific to any industry or sector, so it can be used by any public, private or community enterprise, association, group or individual. This standard can be applied throughout the life of an organization, and to a wide range of activities, including strategies and decisions, operations, processes, functions, projects, products, services and assets.
Why Risk Management Matters for SMEs
In an increasingly complex business environment, effective risk management is essential for long-term success. Risks, such as operational disruptions, regulatory changes, or reputational damage, can have significant impacts on your business. By adopting a formal risk management framework aligned with ISO 31000, you can:
Proactively Identify Risks: Gain a clear understanding of potential threats, from operational disruptions to compliance failures.
Enhance Decision-Making: Make informed decisions by integrating risk management into your strategic planning.
Protect Your Reputation: Safeguard your brand by mitigating risks that could harm your credibility.
Ensure Compliance: Stay ahead of regulatory changes and avoid penalties by managing compliance risks effectively.
