Prospective Management (Intervention)

A process used to anticipate (forecast) a risk that could occur in association with new processes of development and investment, taking measures to guarantee that new risk conditions do not arise with location, construction, production, circulation and commercialization initiatives, among others. The prospective management should be viewed as an integral component of development planning and of the planning cycle of new projects, whether developed by the government, private sector or civil society. The last objective of this type of management is to avoid new risks, guarantee adequate levels of investment sustainability, and as a result, avoid having to apply expensive corrective management measures in the future.
