Risk Management
Every
high-technology company engaged in
innovation and in
continuous
product improvement is fully aware that
risk is an
intrinsic and
non-eliminable element of a
project or
contract. This issue is all the more significant for
companies
having
complex business cycles or
orders spread over years, where
it is difficult to forecast how exactly scenarios will develop.
Managing
risk in order to
limit the influence of such uncertainty thus plays
a decisive role as regards technological, industrial and competitive
development. This is the case with SELEX Sistemi Integrati, especially in the
light of its
new activity in the field of
Large Systems.
The company has responded by setting up a special "
Risk Management"
Directorate, with
two main
fields of activity: the first
addresses
integration and
co-operation within the
FINMECCANICA
Group for
risk management in
Large Systems,
risk
analysis throughout the entire
lifecycle of
programmes and
implementation of a
project opportunity identification and
promotion
process.
The second field concerns the
analysis of
risks in product
design and manufacture; this is indispensable in a sector where
innovation is one of the most significant driving forces and risk mitigation a
key factor for a company’s success.
