Imagine Risk Transformed
Systemkey™ provides a risk management solution that enables large enterprises to capture their residual risks, thereby avoiding future disasters.
What is Systemkey™?
Systemkey™ is a Risk Intelligence Framework for Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). The Systemkey tool suite enables enterprise-level clients to capture their residual risks, thereby avoiding future disasters. Visit our download library or contact us to learn more.

Ultimately behavioral change is the most meaningful factor in long-term risk reduction. While most enterprise risk management systems address accounting/financial risk (coso) or corporate governance (Sarbanes-Oxley), Systemkey™ is rooted in safety engineering and personnel management.
How do we change behaviors? By giving people what they want most.
What do people want most? They want to know they can trust you.
How do we build trust? Most commonly, through conversation, through dialog, by watching people do what they say they're going to do.
While other ERM tools gather data, that data is often little more than “the expected answer”. Not only does this approach waste time and money, it actually increases risk! By introducing risk management data collection at multiple operational levels, Systemkey™ harnesses the power and expertise of human capital to identify and prioritize risks to drive behavioral change.
With 25 years of globally-sourced engineering expertise woven into the Systemkey software and data collection techniques, it's robust enough for your most complex enterprise risk management projects.
Systemkey™ is a pioneer in using the same sort of structured conversations that have been in place for decades in aviation, in military operations and in electrical power generation control rooms.
If it's that simple, how can it be any good?
Consider DNA. The recipe that makes up you and me has only four items (called "base pairs") yet just look in the mirror to see breath-taking complexity that comes from stunning simplicity.
Systemkey™ establishes trust in organizations that have to manage complex operations. They use people to do it, because like the management sage Peter Drucker said, “no other resource is available.” Computers don't run themselves. At the heart of every decision is a person - or needs to be.
Systemkey™ allows people to peel back the layers of decision making so they can not only understand the issue better, they can record the process of how they got the answer so that they can use the knowledge gained to get faster, more insightful decisions in the future.
In the classroom
While classroom training is a component of Systemkey,™ the approach is primarily experiential. Systemkey™ combines the best of science-driven behavior-based audience analysis with the seasoned reasoning of real-world experience. Teaching teams of three to have structured conversations via the Systemkey™ framework takes only a half-day.
In the workforce
Empowered with structured conversation skills, the deep experience of the seasoned veteran combined with the fresh perspective of the new hire produce the bottoms-up lifecycle risk assessment elements. In contrast to most top-down risk assessments that require “experts” to pick the right events to analyze, Systemkey™ uses the product/event lifecycle and real-life experience of staff across the board to uncover layer upon layer of potential risks. This way the senior leadership understands the depth of the analysis and its limits as conducted.
Teaching people to “celebrate their innovation potential” isn't just happy talk or feel-good hype, it's a hard-science requirement for reaching the next level of performance! The Systemkey™ approach turns ego inside out. Using Systemkey,™ subject matter experts rank identified risks for severity, occurrence and detection.
Typical risk rankings only include two of these three elements, Systemkey™ uses all three for a more robust reporting system (finer granularity) and better long term results. We connect the novice with the seasoned veteran, for learning both ways, such as in our maintenance example.
