History

Risk Logic began in Hoboken, NJ in 1997 when founder John Durante had the idea to start a business that could provide property loss prevention consulting services directly to the consumer. The goal was to provide experienced engineering consulting services that offered value. There would be no affiliation with large insurance companies or brokers: Risk Logic would be a completely unbundled company that could provide high-quality engineering, at a reasonable cost to its customers.

One engineer in 1997 soon became two in 1998, and the growth continued.

Today, there are over 100 engineers working for Risk Logic, which has expanded into a multinational company providing property loss prevention services globally. Our engineers average over 28 years of experience, and most have previously worked for large HPR insurance carriers such as FM Global and IRI.

The company is run by five engineers who understand the ideas of value, experience, and working hard to achieve success.

Company

Risk Logic (RLI) is a consulting engineering company that provides Property Loss Prevention Services.

Our engineers visit facilities to conduct a thorough review of process and natural hazards. This will include reviewing the Construction of the facility, the Occupancy hazards, how well the site is Protected and what Exposures exist externally. The review also includes an evaluation of property formidability from natural catastrophes such as earthquake, windstorm, hail, and flood. This “COPE” approach to assessing risk within a facility is key. We review the COPE, Business Interruption Hazards and Preventive Maintenance Programs to determine the Risk Quality of the site. A company review is also performed to better understand the Company Risk Exposures. Analysis of risk grading, recommendations and loss expectancies allow for an in-depth review process that can provide meaningful insight on a company’s risk profile and ability for risk retention.

Our engineers have an average of 28+ years’ experience. The majority have previous experience and training working as Property Loss Prevention Consultants for FM Global or IRI. Most are Professional Engineers or have their CFPS designation.

We focus on leveraging our experience and technical knowledge of FM Global and NFPA Standards to reduce risk and exposures at large commercial and industrial properties. Our business operations are set up on a global basis and our customer base consists of Insurance Brokers, Carriers and working directly with Insureds.

Our detailed technical report is accepted and respected by the insurance community because of its non-biased analysis and engineering detail.

Education and training in Property Loss Prevention are essential for the development of engineers in our field. We stay current with new codes and updates to FM Global and NFPA Standards. Our staff is trained monthly on the newest technology and updated standards in our field.

Our business has been a successful operation because of our dedication to customer service and the quality engineering services that we provide for our customers. We like to think of our company as an extension of the Risk Management or Loss Control Departments for our clients.

We work closely with Insurance Companies, Brokers, Risk Managers and local Plant Managers and look beyond codes and Insurance Company requirements to help develop solutions that are practical, effective, and economical.
