The Center for Risk Assessment Informed Decision Engineering (RAIDE) is dedicated to improving decisions that are made during all phases of a project or system life-cycle ranging from planning through design and operation by enabling this decisions to be informed by and predicated on a deliberate and proactive identification and assessment of hazards and risks so as to increase the probability of success in achieving the desired goals. This is best achieved through a process that is informed by and predicated on a deliberate and proactive identification and assessment of the various hazards and risks so as to increase the probability of success in achieving the desired goals.
RAIDE is focused on improving how assessment and evaluation of risks are optimally incorporated into the decision processes that maximizes the utility and success of all activities ranging from planning to design through mature operations.
