Retainer Risk Management Services

An experienced risk management consultant is permanently assigned to each client to coordinate all of the various elements of the risk management program. The consultant will interview key staff and administrators and evaluate the present program to get recent history and current status.

The evaluation will include both internal systems (organization, methods and procedures, record keeping, loss control, reporting methods and budgeting) and external systems (brokers, insurance companies, service companies of various types and other external components). Problem areas will be pinpointed and alternative solutions developed to solve them. Our consultants work on a retainer, by the project, or on an hourly basis.

Total costs vary with the client, size and scope of the project, current level of risk management sophistication, and the time and travel needed to complete the assignment. We typically make our proposals with a maximum cost lid so that clients know, in advance, maximum possible costs.
