Adaptation & Resilience to Physical Risks

Heat, drought and flooding reach a business through its sites, its suppliers and the routes between them. A transition plan built on policy and market risk does not show where those links break.We trace physical risk through operations and supply chains, test what can adapt and plan what reduces exposure and vulnerability.

A risk register can list heat and flooding as categories without naming the point failures: a site, a supplier or a route that stops operations.

When a hazard stops a supplier that has no second source or contingency, output stops with it, whatever the transition plan says. The exposure reaches operations before it reaches the balance sheet.

Our approach

  1. Assess the exposure

    Physical risk traced through operations and the supply chain by site, by dependency and by the boundary each one draws on, crossed with the latest climate models.
  2. Test operational readiness

    For each exposed site and supplier, whether operations can adapt and at what cost, so the plan separates what adaptation measures must be rolled out from what needs a contingency.
  3. Sequence the adaptation plan

    An adaptation plan for operations and risk teams that says what to do, where and why, starting where exposure is largest and hardest to reverse.
