Crisis management software built for one decision: act, or hold
Crisis tooling often optimises for volume — more feeds, more alerts, more dashboards. In a real escalation the question your crisis team faces is narrower: have our pre-agreed conditions been met, and can we show why?
CHARIS is built around that question. It is deliberately not a news aggregator: it evaluates the specific triggers your organisation chose, against cited evidence, and reports a clear posture per country.
What the crisis team gets
A single dashboard showing every monitored country's LEAVE classification and ENTER readiness, with the recommendation spelled out: EXTREME means evacuate, HIGH means consider evacuation, ELEVATED means prepare for activation, STABLE means routine monitoring.
State-change email alerts when a country's band moves, so the team is convened by a posture change rather than by rumour. PDF reports capture the full assessment — trigger by trigger, with citations — for the crisis log.
An anonymous personnel manifest lets you record aggregate headcounts per country and group, without names, so posture changes can be read against how many people they affect.
Why binary triggers, not scores
Trigger status in CHARIS is strictly BREACHED or NOT BREACHED. Thresholds are set deliberately high because a breach represents a formal activation decision — a false positive triggers costly continuity activation just as a false negative delays it. Concern and emerging risk are carried in the narrative commentary, never smuggled into the trigger status.
That discipline is what makes the output defensible: two organisations with different risk tolerances can monitor the same country with different triggers and each get an answer that reflects their own plan.
What CHARIS does not do
CHARIS does not manage incident tasking, call trees or mass notification — it is the monitoring and decision layer that tells you when those mechanisms should fire. It covers 13 Middle East countries and is calibrated for international business operations in the region.
