XYM handles different organizational needs in critical areas such as the business
security system, machinery, IT computer systems, company network systems, personnel
management and megaproject (infrastructural analysis). Our disaster management plan includes
risk analysis; management and implementation plan (Goetsch & Davis, 2014). This ensures a
comprehensive approach for quality output and feedback mechanisms. Our company undertakes
these through different procedures. We test, implement within international and business
standards for risk management. This covers the organizational objectives through the defined
framework. We are also keen on the financial impact of the training plan because this method
balances the company costs and benefit (Eccless & Serafeim, 2013).
Who are our competitors? We are a leading national and regional company. Our
competitors include global companies leading the region. We have a reputation of being the most
cost effective in efficiency. Who makes up XYM? Our team includes qualified trainers,
facilitators, expert analysts, business developers and consultants. This is through different
training tasks in business design, risk control, management of potential threats and modification
of existing risks. We also have training on risk transfer and prevention. Training methods and
practices used include engaging clients by facilitating, definition of uncertainties and
consequences.
XYM identifies risks, threats to risk management, assessment of vulnerable
areas, risk reduction strategies, prioritization of high risk potentials. These are beneficial to the
Wash Disaster Recovery preparedness and business research implementation (Zikmund, babin,
Carr, & Griffin, 2013). How does XYM carry out rehearsals and training? Our rehearsal takes
into consideration the principles of the organization and industry expectations. We adhere to

standardized approaches for risk management, value based addition and stakeholder decision
making. We use a systematic approach that encourages participation and customized processes.
Currently our organization facilitates for strategic business function, recover and
support services which will provide as an additional package. This is critical because of the
underlying high risk business uncertainties which contribute the downfall of many companies
(Hill, 2015). Through testing exercises we enable companies to adopt the best strategy, designed
specific for each company.
