An Introduction to Enterprise Resilience • What Is Resilience?
Why Be Resilient?
In a changing world, to be resilient is to be agile. Resilient organizations anticipate change and respond swiftly and effectively - drawing on all their resources.
Enterra Solutions' platform enables organizations to meet the demands of the increased technological capability, capacity and connectivity that lies at the heart of globalization.
Delivering Secure, Compliant Solutions for Enterprise Resilience
Through its Enterprise Resilience Management Solution™ (ERMS), Enterra has developed a dynamic and systemic means of addressing today's challenges in:
- Security
- Compliance
- Market Competition
ERMS is a new approach that drives sustainable competitive advantage. The approach includes unique methodologies to evaluate internal processes and develop rule set automation and process builders. ERMS offers Resilient Technology Architecture™ that links systems across an organization or industry. It assures usefulness of the content input into that architecture through its Dynamic Rules Library™. ERMS turns the threats of a globalizing and consolidating geopolitical environment into opportunities for companies and governments alike.
Minding the Gap
Governing principles inform how governments set policy; how companies transact business; how managers deliver products and services. Over time, the complexity of governing principles increases. Legal policies and standard operating procedures - even word of mouth - dictate these changes to decision makers as situations develop.
Frequently, an organization's maturity does not keep up with the expanding complexity of its environment and these rule changes get lost or poorly implemented. Mature systems within an organization bridge the gap between capacity and complexity, permitting organizations to succeed.
Enterra Solutions zeroes in on the systemic changes required for an organization to be sustainable in a complex environment.
For example:
- New legislation has introduced complex and expensive regulatory compliance issues into the business place as CEO's must achieve their business goals while meeting information disclosure and management requirements.
- Integrated operations relying on contractors, vendors and other third parties demand a shift to web services or process-oriented architecture and transformation of existing enterprise applications.
- The gaps inherent in the open architectures of SOA/POA and Web services require increased attention to security issues such as information assurance and identity management. The ability to monitor activity and isolate patterns becomes a critical element of defense-in-depth strategies.
Offering Post-Industrial Solutions for a Post-Industrial Age
Enterra Solutions helps clients increase profitability by recapturing resources lost to inefficient processes. But Enterra does more than that. Today, new ways of thinking are required and Enterra provides the framework for doing so. Enterra Solutions not only offers improved management of critical assets, processes and functions, but helps to strategically position an organization within its industry in a global context.
Manual approaches to security and compliance assume an unacceptable level of business and regulatory risk. Enterra aligns the strategy, operations and technology with their clients' critical assets. This alignment provides the basis to create customized resilience master plans - plotting a pathway to Enterprise Resilience. Then, ERMS blends business logic, technology and cognition in a new architectural construct.
Organizations are increasingly distinguished by their ability to adapt to threats, risks and opportunities - if they can react at all. Enterra Solutions offers a new paradigm for a new era of growth and security that better equips them for meeting these challenges.
