Strategic Consulting Services

Risk Evaluation, Customized Solutions & Collaborative Engagement

PMA Companies (PMA) is a leader in providing risk control services. Our consultants function as an extension of your team, working collaboratively to evaluate your risk and develop customized solutions that protect your employees and reduce loss potential.

Our Service Approach

In consultation with our brokers, we assist clients by:

• Conducting a Risk Evaluation: We evaluate your current environment, safety management programs, and employee engagement against industry best practices and compliance standards. As part of this process, we identify improvement opportunities in areas such as employee selection and hiring, orientation, ongoing safety training, accident reporting/investigation, safety committees and transitional duty.
• Analyzing your Losses: Our analytics team will assess your losses to uncover leading historical trends that could point to future losses with serious implications.
• Providing Consultation: We work with you at your convenience to provide onsite consultation and hazard assessments.

Collaborative Strategic Planning

At PMA, we meet you where you are to assist you with where you want to go. After conducting a risk evaluation and analyzing your losses, we guide you in the development of a customized risk reduction plan that prioritizes your loss drivers and serious risk exposures. We do this by:

• Engaging your key stakeholders in implementing a plan with goals, performance metrics and accountability. This plan will guide the improvement process with strategies to eliminate and mitigate hazards, protect employees, identify and promote safe work strategies, and offer education resources and solutions.
• Providing recommendations with targeted interventions to manage current losses and prevent future losses, all while developing a culture of safety. Our consultants will work with you to transform recommendations into actionable steps while helping monitor progress and adjust strategies as needed.

We offer a wide array of customized solutions that can be tailored to fit into your strategic service plan.
