Experience

Our years of experience have taught us that not all business environments are created equal. What’s more, that each business environment has its own distinctive set of challenges and opportunities, from the national to the state/provincial and municipal levels and, importantly, the local/community level. As a result, PS International provides customized services for each private and public sector client.

Our corporate philosophy is to regard each client’s interest as our own, regardless of the scope of the engagement. This philosophy not only explains why our services repeatedly exceed client expectations, but also why 80 percent of our business is return business, and why most new business is the result of client referrals.

Professionals

Our professionals meet the highest standards of excellence and ethics, ensuring the confidentiality of each project and the quality of actionable information that is critical for the client’s success.

Identify and Assess Operational Risks

Identify and assess risks that could impact employee security, costs, operational certainty, and potentially the share price of our publicly traded clients. PS International’s proven methodology analyzes the following nine operational risk factors, depending on our client needs and the business environments in which they operate. PS International not only identifies and assesses risks but recommends risk-reduction measures.

Security

Assess, mitigate, or manage security risk to employees, operations, and supply chains, such as of theft and sabotage.

Political and Regulatory

Track policy, regulations, and legislative initiatives at all government levels that can impact client interests and complement government-relations programs.

Economic and Taxation

Monitor, mitigate, and manage taxation risks to clients and their interests—including, for instance, overzealous tax audits, drawn-out withholding of tax returns, or the levy of new or increased taxes.

Legal and Judicial

Monitor and track national and international legal proceedings, targeting or impacting specific industries, clients, or client competitors.

Corruption and Ethics Compliance

Identify existing or potential sources of corruption and ethics compliance so that clients can continually adapt and strengthen their corporate ethics policies and measures.

Industry Competitor

Competitor experiences and challenges are often leading indicators for identifying emerging risks or threats to client interests.

Environmental

Identify existing or potential environmental risks and recommend and assist with the implementation of measures or programs to manage or mitigate those risks.

Social and Community

Conduct stakeholder mapping and social baseline studies to inform the development and implementation of successful community relations and CSR programs.

Labor and Union

Our methodology analyzes operational risks from various levels—from local, state, and national, to the international and geopolitical level

Our operational risk assessments often seamlessly integrate and inform our clients’ own enterprise risk management (ERM) methods and processes.

Risk Mitigation and Management Strategies

Importantly, in addition to identifying and assessing operational risks, we also develop and recommend strategies to assist clients in mitigating risks or managing them, if they have already manifested. These include:

Integrated management systems that incorporate environmental, corporate social responsibility, health and safety, and security components that are “fit for purpose” for the specific conditions at the site.
Assimilation of the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights into operational and pre-operational sites.

Business intelligence

Our business intelligence projects have included vetting potential partners or prospective employees; providing clients with intelligence to effectively resolve challenges or seize business opportunities; conducting investigations of supply chains to identify stolen fuel and minerals networks; and ensuring corporate ethics compliance. Our business intelligence goes beyond general predictions—such as those offered through artificial intelligence—but rather pinpoints the threats and opportunities with actionable intelligence.

Due Diligence

We conduct due diligence for mergers and acquisitions, private equity financing, and other financial transactions.

Independent Research and Analysis

Our research and analysis projects have assisted governments formulate and implement effective public policies to increase competitiveness and regulatory oversight. We have also assisted companies obtain an independent and thorough analysis of issues so that they can make informed decisions.
