Risk Analysis and Mediation
What is Risk Analysis?
Risk analysis is a review and analytical process that includes identifying and quantifying uncertainties, estimating their impact on outcomes that may be sought, building a risk analysis review that expresses these elements in quantitative form, exploring these opinions through simulation and sensitivity analysis, and making risk management decisions that can help avoid, mitigate, or otherwise deal with risk.
In regard to possible conflict, risk analysis is the process of identifying and analysing potential issues that could negatively impact the outcome and help organisations avoid or mitigate those risks.
In brief, a conflict risk assessment is intended to provide our clients with an early, concise evaluation of the risks and costs.
Conflict Risk Assessment
Statistics show that over 95% of civil disputes settle. Many settle after a very expensive process. Many times the parties would have had the opportunity to resolve the dispute without incurring much of this expense.
Parties often can achieve better resolutions earlier, and dramatically reduce costs, through a rigorous early evaluation. Such a use of a structured approach for evaluating such matters – conflict assessment – is the key to this process, and begins even before costly steps are started and attempts to resolve the issue before it proceeds.
What are the benefits of Conflict Analysis?
- a faster, cost effective solution to the dispute;
- salvaged business partnerships, and business relationships; and
- a way to move forward effectively and fairly for all parties;
- a win-win solution
What is Mediation?
The risk analysis process often includes mediation to save time and money for all involved parties. An unbiased third party helps all parties resolve their differences and reach an agreement, specifically financial. This quickly growing method can then act as a binding resolution.
