Fusion Risk Management provides world-class consulting services. Typical engagements begin with the delivery of a concise, cost-effective Framework Assessment that defines current, planned and desired states for the IT Risk Management program, and prescribes a fiscally responsible mitigation plan for those elements representing prioritized risks.

Fusion provides Gap Remediation Services to bridge defined gaps between the current and desired states to achieve IT Risk Management program goals. For clients who desire continuous monitoring and improvement of their IT Risk Management profile, Fusion provides on-going Program Management Services that are designed to keep clients prepared and informed and to support ongoing Audit and Compliance requirements.

This progressive series of advisory consulting services has proved effective in meeting client expectations.

Framework Assessment Services provide comprehensive IT Risk Management program evaluation leveraging the Fusion Framework™ Methodology and Software. Fusion provides a clear definition of the current state of IT Risk Management elements precisely identified and measured against program maturity, impact and likelihood of occurrence.

The "Desired State" is defined reflecting the program's long-term goals including compliance, process maturity, business resilience and strategic business agility. To accomplish the Desired State, a number of "Planned States" are identified which reflect program objectives over a planning horizon typically 12 to 24 months in duration.

From this base, critical gaps are identified and prioritized, and remediation activities necessary to bridge those gaps are recommended. With crisp definition of activities, organized within the Fusion Framework Software platform, and aligned with business priorities and impact, Framework Assessments ensure that a client's focus is always on the next most important investment and activity in its Risk Management Program.
