Strategic Consulting and Solution Assessment
RMS consulting uses proprietary analytics and best practices to develop actionable recommendations that help you overcome existing challenges and increase business value.
A Strategic Approach to Risk
We start by understanding your company’s strategy, business priorities, and current challenges to help us contextualize the results and ensure our deliverables include actionable recommendations.
Risk Maturity Index
Our proprietary risk maturity index helps clients understand their existing maturity relative to peers and guides improvement efforts.
Solution Assessment
We identify how RMS models, software, data, and services offer a solution, including an implementation plan, as well as the benefits and costs of transformation.
Portfolio Risk Review
By modeling the current book of business, we identify areas of concern or opportunities to support underwriting and business planning decisions.
Improve Modeling Practices
By understanding your current maturity relative to peers, we can create an actionable plan for improvement and prioritize spend where it matters most.
Industry Segment Assessment
By assessing and benchmarking an industry that you are evaluating, we help identify any systemic issues and provide recommendations to improve the maturity of specific companies and the entire industry.
Initiating Risk Management
This initial assessment of exposure data, its impact on modeling, and recommendations for data collection and coding provide an understanding of portfolio risk and what is driving it. With clearer perspective, we help support more informed underwriting and business planning decisions.
Operational Efficiency
We review your system architecture, workflows, integration, and data entry processes to assess areas where we could integrate, automate, or outsource existing tasks to reduce costs or improve efficiencies.
Ratings and Guidelines
By assessing current rating zones and underwriting guidelines, we can provide advice on improvements, including revised model-informed rating tables and underwriting guidelines to improve profitability for cat-exposed risks.
