Understanding Enterprise Risk Management & School Security

Addressing school and building security means taking a true Enterprise Risk Management approach and following the complete five-step risk management process, from first identifying and analyzing exposures through implementation and monitoring. CIRMA Risk Management is available to  consult with members who are either beginning the process of addressing security concerns or would like to re-assess what is already in place. 

Consultative services include assisting members with:

  • Developing a collaborative building security committee to address the goals and initiatives of the individual member.
  • Developing an on-site, hands-on process, which includes coordination of local public safety officials.
  • Conducting, with the committee and safety officials, a comprehensive safety and security assessment of buildings and grounds to help identify and analyze exposures.
  • Developing and implementing a tailored program with practical and workable solutions based on the assessment outcomes.

Please contact your CIRMA Risk Management Consultant for more information and assistance developing your risk management program.
