Leader in industrial automation outlines four key areas for managing industrial risk
Industrial organizations around the world struggle to manage risk. Incidents, such as product recalls, data breaches and worker injuries, have immediate consequences and can impact customers, employees, intellectual property and revenue.
Risk management should be focused on where problems originate. In many cases, that is within the automation infrastructure. Rockwell Automation has outlined four key areas for managing risk at its source, including:
“We view enterprise risk management as a continuous cycle of improvement that includes assessments, technology and infrastructure,” states Scott Lapcewich, vice president and general manager, Customer Support and Maintenance, Rockwell Automation. “Our unique blend of expertise in manufacturing processes, automation, operations, safety and security helps customers mitigate enterprise risk within their plant environments.”
By addressing risk in these key areas, companies can effectively manage brand-critical safety, quality, security and obsolescence challenges at their source. An e-book outlining the four key areas of risk management is available on the Rockwell Automation website.
