Risk Managment

In a complex and interconnected world, any event happening around the globe impacts most economies and organisations positively or negatively. Organisations must identify and mitigate the risks they are exposed to. It may not be possible to eliminate the threats but what matters is whether risks are treated well to ensure that the risk levels are within the risk appetite for achieving organisational objectives. TCE has developed the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework and process in line with the Business Value Chain of the Company

and best practice recommendations of Standards like ISO 31000 and the COSO framework. The company’s Risk Management procedure captures and evaluates risks throughout the project’s lifecycle, i.e., from the bid stage to the closure of the project. Risk Management System captures and shares the risk data for bids and projects through dashboards and reports to support risk reviews, mitigation and monitoring, risk reporting, etc.
