COMPANY OVERVIEW
Purple Compass helps organizations navigate complexity and uncertainty, anticipate future changes, and identify opportunities for innovative business solutions.
Our focus is climate change, risk management and sustainability. We provide climate-related risk management and strategic services for physical infrastructure. We integrate conventional risk management processes with holistic approaches to understand the systemic risk landscape, and proactively work with areas of uncertainty. Our work supports organizational activities as part of the Task Force for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).
APPROACH
As part of our strategic priority to climate resilience, our services to support infrastructure resilience includes:
1. Governance: a review of climate-related risk management policies and processes.
2. Risk Management: assess the exposure of climate-related risks, physical fixed asset vulnerability assessment, value chain exposure and risk characterization to inform opportunities for mitigation, risk reduction and build resilience (basic (predictive) scenario analysis).
3. Forward-Looking Adaptive Strategy: horizon scan, emerging issues analysis and potential disruption to inform plausible future states, potential business implications and opportunities for robust strategic investments (plausible (exploratory) scenario analysis).
4. Risk Report: national – local lens, climate risk profile, water and energy sector impact, community and reputational risk, biodiversity and policy/legal considerations, the transitional risk to low carbon economy, mitigation and adaptive strategy.
