If adequate time is not set aside to stop, think, define, and manage fire hazards and risks, much like with Velociraptors, then rational application of protection regulations and solutions can become subject to factors such as budget restraints and implementation schedule impact.     While these factors are important considerations and are key elements during the value engineering phase, they should not be the driving factors during risk analysis and scope definition.     In our latest blog by Bertrand Gertzen, uncover tools, such as fire risk assessment, that have been developed to govern and guide this process through qualitative and quantitative measures. Discover how this structured process helps define and manage any metaphorical Velociraptors.     Read ‘Correlation between a fire risk assessment for industrial applications and Velociraptor management in Jurassic Park’: https://lnkd.in/e7K3fPkJ      #Risk #RiskAssessment #FireSafety #ProjectManagement

Often, the financial returns on any project could be easily eroded by delays and cost overruns. Resource developers face many challenges, particularly at remote project sites, as punishing conditions often make it difficult to sustain a highly productive workforce. To navigate this, you need stringent site deployment capabilities to take on integrated planning, security, and OASIS – our operation and accommodation site implementation services. With this function, you can reduce construction costs, schedule, and risk impacts, and make downstream activities more productive.

We had an incredible time facilitating the Hatch Speaker Series during The Calgary Stampede, moderated by our very own Chelsie Klassen, M.A., LLM for the third year in a row! This event continues to be a source of fresh insights and groundbreaking ideas, where we discuss opportunities to further drive innovation and #positivechange. ➕    This year, our focus was on reconciling people, planet, and profit by exploring ways to manage #carbon through market incentives. We held conversations about enhancing #diversity for greater #innovation and profit and supporting #Indigenous investments through loan guarantees and strategic partnerships on core, stable assets.     We appreciate our partners, Axis Connects and WPC Energy Canada, and our outstanding panelists Heather Culbert, Kevin Birn, and Steven Kroeker for your participation. Special thanks to our opening and closing speakers Nuvyn Peters, Dean Tucker, and Britany Ostridge.
