The Noggin Blog

The outbreak of COVID-19 has already disrupted major parts of the world economy. Working supply chains, in particular, are frayed to their breaking points, with air traffic and other forms of free movement ground to a near halt. What does it all mean for you clients and how can you support them?

Social impact is an important driver of what we do here at Noggin. Our software platform helped organisations respond to the historic 2019/2020 bushfires. And that was before the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, which is impacting our customers, as well, especially healthcare agencies at the frontline of the epidemic response.

From the Christchurch terrorist attack to the Australian bushfires, crises this year increased in scale and impact. What does this troubling trend portend for organisational resilience in 2020 and beyond?

Identifying safety and security threats and their consequences to your clients is a key task for boutique consultancies and larger advisory firms, alike. But the safety and security technology market is growing nearly as fast as the underlying safety and protective security issues those solutions seek to address. How then to know which software solutions to recommend and how to implement them once they’ve been chosen? 

Eighty-four percent of organisations have a crisis management plan in place according to Deloitte’s global crisis survey, “Stronger, fitter, better.” Unfortunately, they don’t test those plans regularly.

The recent Noggin User Conference in Sydney brought together consultants, technology partners, and service professionals to illustrate what a best-practice customer journey looks like, from initial gap analysis to full system implementation.

We are often asked how our customers seamlessly manage the journey from initial needs qualification to implementation of Noggin’s technology solution with its dependencies on other systems.

Welcome to the new financial year. Already, we’ve heard great feedback on our Integrated Safety and Security platform, Noggin 2.0, which we’ve been demonstrating to consultants, customers, service partners, and prospects. So we’re more confident than ever that our new software will fill a need in the market.

Talking to our partners every day, I feel their excitement when discussing the new Noggin 2.0 integrated safety and security platform. Going through a demo is proof positive of how the new intuitive approach of a mobile-first platform enables adding partner services and guaranteeing a mutually beneficial outcome.

Managing safety risks, ensuring protective security, preventing and responding to emergencies and crises, they’re are all huge tasks for organisations. After all, knowing the steps to take to develop effective risk management plans isn’t in the DNA of most companies.
