Who We Are
Kinetica Risk brings state-of-the-art research in physical infrastructure resiliency to decision-makers in the real world.
Under climate change and globalization, we understand that every organization requires a customized approach for future proofing critical assets and business processes. Hence, we put together a multi-disciplinary team of engineers, climate modellers, risk analysts, and subject experts in physics-based simulations of complex asset portfolios to help you quantify risk and address the specific challenges that will ensure long-term success. Our work focuses on four main areas which are designed to address large questions where individual organizations may need unique responses to:
Impact Assessment and Protection of Assets - How does existing infrastructure hold up in face of major physical shock and what is the business case in proactive mitigation?
Critical Business Functions and Supply Chains - What is the impact to your organization due to damage in supply chain nodes or interdependent assets and processes?
Climate Risk Reporting and Opportunities - How much asset damage and operational disruptions are caused by climate change, and how can these impacts be minimized or avoided by adapting risk management strategies?
Designing for Resilience and Sustainability - What is the value for incorporating climate and physical resiliency in the design of buildings and infrastructure, and what are its impacts to sustainability?

How We Work With You
Client Engagement & Organizational Context Exploration
The first step to improve resiliency in a portfolio is to understand the critical elements and factors that can impact the organization in the decision-horizon of interest. This includes establishing the relative importance of portfolio assets, key interdependencies, risk management measures, minimum recovery objectives and times, as well as other physical, environmental or social metrics that are of importance to the overarching goal.
Physical Simulations & Data Analysis
Developing science-based hazard and risk analysis of asset portfolios is an essential component in understanding risk. Our team places the utmost emphasis on understanding the vulnerability of your assets and operations through high-fidelity, high-resolution simulations that enables direct identification of cost-drivers and recovery bottlenecks. By combining our proprietary analysis platform with latest tools and data from the hazard and risk scientific community Kinetica Risk provides the most comprehensive decision-support analytics for risk management strategies, capital investment and operational continuity.
Risk Visualization & Hands-on Support
Scientific analysis and data are only part of the journey. Data is only useful if insights can be derived. Kinetica Risk employs data science techniques to develop interactive charts and mapping tools to communicate risk in an intuitive and visual manner, as we believe the best decisions are made when stakeholders have a deep understanding and appreciation of the issues. Our team is designed to work in close collaboration with project stakeholders to embed recommendations and risk management strategies that advance your organizational goals.
