TCO & TCOR: Where Facilities Meets Risk Management

When:  Nov 11, 2016 from 01:30 PM to 02:30 PM (ET)

About This Risk Management Week Webinar

Facilities managers concern themselves with the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of buildings and property while risk managers focus on Total Cost of Risk (TCOR). Facility managers may understand the risks within their area of responsibility but they face the challenge in dealing with risk because of resources, both human and financial. For them it’s a balance of risk and cost. A robust risk management program places responsibility for risk at the appropriate levels of the organization including Facilities, providing resources to address the risk and reporting on the success the risk mitigation strategies. This webinar will discuss how Facilities and Risk Management can work together to minimize TCO and TCOR.

As a result of participating in this session, attendees will:

  • From a risk management perspective, understand facilities-related strategic, operational and compliance risks
  • From a facilities standpoint, understand the challenge of supporting the three-Rs (recruitment, retention and resources) with constrained resources
  • Understand the “touch points” Facilities and Risk Management should have to support each other
