§ Use of Clinical Risk Management (CRM) process to identify and mitigate unknown risks

Weakness

§ Lack of knowledge and training programs for the employees

§ HSBC’s weakness would be the prolonged duration taken to implement the technology

§ Lack of more permanent and comprehensive health infrastructure that sustains technology integration
