Risk Management & Engineering Perspective• What helps:

• Experience

• Quality product

• Knowledge and expertise of NFPA and FM Global standards

• Quick turnaround for plan reviews and reports

• A consistent global HPR (Highly Protected Risk) standard from risk management (NFPA, FM, Local Code)

• Senior management support

Risk Management & Engineering Perspective• Some Additional Considerations:

• Consistency with regard to material purchasing (Procurement)

• Property Loss Prevention review during acquisitions (M&A)

• Prevention data accepted by insurance stakeholders

• Ad hoc service and technical support

• Development of RMS primary and secondary factors for windstorm and earthquake perils

Engineering Service Provider Perspective• Reports accepted by all insurance markets

• Global staff

• What is added cost to meet the HPR standard

• Analyze country infrastructure

• Provide resources to install FM Global approved equipment and utilize contractors that can install fire protection systems to meet the risk management standard (NFPA or FM)

Engineering Service Provider Perspective• Utilize a service provider (carrier or unbundled fee

company) that has a network of local engineers that can communicate effectively and are well versed in NFPA / FM as well as local codes

• Utilize a cost benefit analysis for other options to automatic sprinkler protection

Local Codes and Impact on the Company’s ability to meet the Loss Prevention Standard• At times local codes can have a significant impact

• Risk avoidance

• Risk mitigation

• The best approach would be to come up with the next best protection options• Examples:

• Separation of warehousing and manufacturing operations

• Spare parts on critical equipment

• Manufacturing redundancy
