Atlas Vantage integrates automated AI and cloud based risk management software into our consulting approach—leveraging workflow, dashboards, and reporting capabilities to reduce manual effort, enhance traceability, and give leadership real-time visibility into your risk posture.
- Enterprise Risk Strategy & Governance
Design or refine your risk governance model, including roles, responsibilities, risk appetite, tolerance levels, and escalation paths—creating a coherent framework that links strategy, operations, and resilience.
- Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) & Metrics
Identification and design of KRIs and supporting metrics that allow you to monitor emerging risks, detect early warning signals, and trigger timely mitigation actions.
- Risk Integration with Business Continuity & Operational Resilience
We connect your risk management practices with Business Continuity, Operational Resilience, and Crisis Management, ensuring that identified risks flow into plans, scenarios, and investments—not just reports.
By combining certified expertise, global standards, analytical techniques, and automation, Atlas Vantage helps you move from reactive risk management to a strategic, proactive, and data-driven risk program.
Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Services
At Atlas Vantage, we help organizations build a structured, proactive, and data-driven approach to managing risk across the enterprise. Our ERM services are designed to identify, prioritize, and process high-impact risks using Analytical Risk Management (ARM), and then translate those insights into practical mitigation strategies that protect your business from severe disruption or closure.
We partner with boards, executives, and risk leaders to:
- Design or enhance your ERM framework, governance, and risk appetite
- Build and maintain an enterprise-wide risk register and taxonomy
- Apply Analytical Risk Management (ARM) to quantify and prioritize risks
- Define Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) and dashboards for ongoing monitoring
- Integrate ERM with Business Continuity, Operational Resilience, Disaster Recovery, Compliance, and Crisis Management
- Implement or optimize automated risk management tools and software
- Provide independent review of your existing risk program and roadmap for improvement
Operational Risk Management (ORM) Services
At Atlas Vantage, we help organizations identify and control localized, operational-level risks before they escalate into enterprise-level threats that can disrupt operations, damage reputation, or jeopardize the entire company.
Our Operational Risk Management (ORM) services focus on the day-to-day processes, people, systems, and third parties that keep your organization running—and ensure that weaknesses at the local level do not become critical failures at the enterprise level.
What Atlas Vantage Delivers
Atlas Vantage provides a structured set of ORM services, including:
- ORM Framework Design & Enhancement
Design or refine your Operational Risk Management framework, including policies, governance, roles, escalation paths, and integration with ERM, Business Continuity, and Operational Resilience.
- Operational Risk Identification & Assessment
Facilitate workshops, interviews, and process reviews to identify operational risks at the business unit, process, and site level. We then assess likelihood, impact, and velocity to prioritize action.
- Risk & Control Self-Assessments (RCSA)
Implement and run RCSA programs that help business owners understand their key risks, document controls, and identify control gaps across processes and locations.
- Process & Control Reviews
Analyze critical processes end-to-end, identifying failure points, manual workarounds, and single points of dependency. We recommend targeted control improvements and automation opportunities.
- Incident, Near-Miss & Loss Event Analysis
Establish structured methods to capture, analyze, and learn from operational incidents and near-misses—turning events into actionable improvements.
- Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) & Dashboards
Define and implement KRIs and operational metrics that provide early warning of emerging issues, feeding into dashboards for management oversight and timely intervention.
- Third-Party & Outsourcing Risk Management
Assess risks arising from vendors, service providers, and outsourced operations. We help you design due diligence, monitoring, and contingency arrangements for critical third parties.
- Site-Level Risk Reviews & Local Action Plans
Conduct localized assessments at branches, plants, data centers, clinics, or offices, and build site-specific risk registers and action plans that roll up into the enterprise view.
- Policy, Procedure & Training Support
Develop or refine operational policies, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and training programs to embed ORM into daily practice and reinforce a strong risk culture.

Protecting the Enterprise by Managing Local Risks
Through these services, Atlas Vantage helps you:
- Identify and quantify localized operational risks
