DNV provides services to safely and responsibly improve business performance. Our key differentiation factor is advanced cross-disciplinary competence within management and technology.

Drawing on decades of experience from high-risk and capital-intensive industries, DNV provides integrated risk management solutions relating to oil and gas installations, transportation systems, process facilities, information and communication technology (ICT), food safety and patient safety. Examples of current cross-disciplinary consulting services are:

Enterprise Risk Management
Complexity, uncertainty and change are prevalent within all business functions. DNV’s Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) service supports sustainability and increases the value of enterprises by supporting decision-making, reducing the likelihood of surprises and improving the ability to meet objectives.

With DNV’s ERM service, customers are helped to identify, understand and manage risks within a project, a part of the organisation or a particular subject area. Also, it is possible to achieve a complete overview of an organisation’s total risk exposure.

Safety, Health and Environmental Risk Management
Compliance only with legal requirements for SHE performance is no longer sufficient for forward-thinking organisations. DNV’s approach balances economical, social and environmental objectives. The traditional idea of ‘value creation’ is redefined from purely maximising shareholders economic returns, to the wider agenda of honouring the interests of society at large.

By applying risk-based methods, in-depth industry insight and advanced software tools, we ensure that threats are identified and risks are managed in a cost-effective manner. DNV works with customers to develop, implement, maintain and continually improve best practices in managing safety, health and environmental risks.

Operations Excellence
Maximum value is achieved from facilities, equipment and people in a safe and responsible manner that does not compromise safety or the environment. DNV applies a wide range of methodologies, tools and techniques to consistently build solutions which ensure that specific production goals are met at the lowest possible cost and in compliance with safety and environmental requirements. Our services range from assessment and benchmarking, through management and implementation to advanced materials technology investigations.

Consulting
The failure of IT-dependent systems may lead to catastrophic events with critical business consequences, putting trust and credibility at risk. Organisations need to mitigate IT risk; when they invest in IT, they want safe and cost-transparent solutions which are specific to their individual needs and compliant with regulatory constraints. Potential issues and vulnerabilities must be identified at an early stage and controlled using rigorous risk management processes. DNV’s services portfolio addresses these needs, with a focus on getting a grip on the IT landscape and improving IT processes and systems and knowledge management.
