Australian floods, January 2011

City of London

Client A

An organisation within a highly regulated industry required to prove their emergency response capability annually to satisfy their terms of operation.

Problem

Failure to satisfy the supervisory body of their ability to implement a suitable emergency response twice in a row.

Consequence

A third failure would have resulted in a Prohibition Notice and the loss of up to £800,000 a day of revenue.

Berwicks solution

  • Political facilitation to overcome a cultural gulf between layers of the organisation
  • Training Needs Analysis to target the root cause of the organisation’s deficiency
  • Co-operative solution devised to design a suitable training programme
  • Intensive training period instigated

Outcome

Test passed with flying colours, morale improved across the organisation and negligible loss of earnings.

“Berwicks is independent and therefore provides honest opinions and feedback from a third party perspective, informed by years of broad-spectrum experience.”
— Jamie Murray, CEO
