RISK ASSESSMENT

D4 develops Security Risk Assessments in order to identity threats, (Physical and network) vulnerabilities and risks associated to our client facilities and processes and proposes countermeasures to reduce those risks.D4 is particularly experienced in the use of American Petroleum Institute (API) methodology.

We also develop Quantitative Risk Assessments in order to quantify the risks of “major hazards” through the estimation of the probability that a defined harm will result from the occurrence of a particular event.

These assessments result in reports that:

• Highlight the specific aspects of facilities and projects that are, or may be, at risk or that can cause a hazard.
• Recommend adjustments to the plans, processes and procedures (planned or in place) that provide risk management coverage.
• Describe the way forward for implementing a Systematic Risk Management process that allows for continuous improvement in managing risks. This enables future decisions to be made based upon analyzed information and to be justified with regard to benefits and costs.
• Provide recommendations on risk mitigation measures.

DESIGN OF SECURITY AND FIRE AND SAFETY PROJECTS

D4 has developed Concepts of Designs, Preliminary Designs and review Detailed Designs for projects in multiple industries.We can also manage a bid process through the production of Requests for Tender (RFT), evaluation of bids and technical comments on offered solutions.

We perform design compliance audit reports in order to verify specifications as agreed in contracts and validate system solutions against requirements.

COMMISSIONING

Systems that are implemented will require some configuration to be compatible with the client’s current and planned systems and processes. D4 has capability to supervise the installation of Industrial security, Cyber Security and fire protection systems in order to ensure their compliance with applicable regulatory and client requirements.

We participate, witness and evaluate System Acceptance Tests (SAT) conducted by the integrator and perform complete audits of the installation to ensure compliance with the Detailed Design. RMIME produces a report including a summary of the results for all security systems implemented by the project.D4 work with their clients to develop security policies, post order and operational procedures aimed to provide guidelines for the Industrial Security Department on their day-to-day activities and on incident response.

TRAINING

Training can be designed to all levels of operations and encompassing all aspects of daily activities and emergency response. Training courses can range from classroom sessions, top-level seminars and workshops, tabletop exercises to complete multi-service live exercises.

D4 is accredited by the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET) and is authorized to issue IACET CEUs.

INCIDENT PLANNING AND MANAGING

D4 can provide support on planning not only for major incidents but also for a full range of lesser incidents in order to bring them to a close before they become disasters. Incidents addressed in order of escalation can be:

• Day-to-day Risk-Related Incidents
• Emergencies
• Crises
• Disasters
• Business Continuity Incidents
