Assessing Your Work During the Covid-19 Pandemic

As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to impact society, it is important to evaluate and reflect on the experiences and lessons learned over the past years. The purpose of such an evaluation is to identify opportunities for change and generate new ideas for the development of your business or organization. Our team at Basalt is equipped with the expertise and experience to support you in the evaluation of your work during Covid-19.

In addition to helping your organization improve, evaluating your work during the pandemic can also provide valuable experience for handling future crises and strengthening your defenses.

Crises can take on a variety of forms, from short-term disruptions affecting a single operation to long-term, complex societal crises involving numerous stakeholders, including the general population.

Regardless of the duration and scope of the crisis, it is essential to have a plan in place to ensure that operations can maintain efficiency. Infrastructure and supply chain disruptions can significantly impact productivity and the delivery of goods and services. To minimize these effects, it is important to focus on quickly restoring operations.

The deteriorating security policy environment has increased the demands on Sweden’s total defense capabilities. The government has tasked authorities with resuming planning for civil defense. Scenario planning is a critical element of this process. We can help you develop relevant strategies to address technical and social vulnerabilities within your operation.

Scenarios for civil defense planning include typical cases, which are event scenarios, and context scenarios, which are external scenarios. Our goal is to help your operation identify robust strategies that can be implemented regardless of future external or event developments. This includes making decisions and developing plans that can be effective under uncertainty.

Effective crisis management is essential for addressing a wide range of scenarios, from short-term disruptions affecting a single business to long-term, complex crises involving multiple stakeholders and impacts on the general population. Without proper training, exercise and planning, any crisis can compromise the efficiency of a business and potentially result in significant losses. Therefore, it is critical to have a plan in place to minimize the impact of disruptions on productivity and delivery of goods and services, and to restore normal operations as quickly as possible.

We assist our clients in organizing and prioritizing their operations based on a risk assessment. We assist in identifying potential risks and provide guidance on the necessary level of protection for businesses, business units, and technical systems, as well as the measures required to maintain that level of protection.

We offer a risk and vulnerability analysis to allocate resources effectively, such as a continuity analysis, in order to enhance your decision-making capabilities and ability to respond to disruptions, heightened readiness, and crisis situations.

At Basalt, our priority in crisis management is to strengthen the overall resilience and capacity of your business. We achieve this by raising risk awareness and ensuring that your employees have a solid foundation of understanding, enabling them to make informed decisions in times of crisis or war. Our approach to crisis management and total defense focuses on maintaining efficiency and everyday operations, while also preparing for potential disruptions. We work with you to develop strategies and plans that enable your organization to effectively navigate crises and emerge stronger as a result.
