Executive Risk Leadership for Growing Texas Businesses

Texas businesses grow fast—and with that growth comes risk.

Across Dallas–Fort Worth and throughout Texas, small and mid-sized companies are expanding operations, taking on larger contracts, adding locations, and navigating increasingly complex compliance and safety responsibilities. At a certain point, informal risk management is no longer enough.

MyCRO™ powered by Eastman Insurance Solutions was built for that moment.

MyCRO™ is short for “My Chief Risk Officer.”
It is a fractional risk leadership solution designed to give Texas businesses access to executive-level risk guidance—without the cost or commitment of hiring a full-time CRO.

What Is MyCRO™?

MyCRO™ provides structured, ongoing risk leadership for businesses that have outgrown reactive decision-making but do not yet require an internal risk department.

Think of MyCRO™ as your Chief Risk Officer—embedded at the right level, focused on the risks that matter most, and scaled to match your stage of growth.

This is not a one-time assessment.
This is not just insurance placement.
This is leadership.

Why MyCRO™ Exists

Most businesses don’t wake up one day needing a Chief Risk Officer. They grow into that need.

As companies scale, risk responsibilities quietly expand. Leadership begins reviewing more complex contracts. Compliance obligations increase. Claims become more frequent or more severe. Decisions that once felt operational now carry real financial and contractual consequences.

At this stage, many business owners recognize that these responsibilities belong at the executive level. However, revenues often do not yet support—and operations do not yet require—a full-time CRO.

A true Chief Risk Officer role can easily approach $300,000 to $400,000 per year when salary, benefits, and executive overhead are considered. For most growing Texas businesses, that investment is premature. More importantly, they may not need a CRO involved every day—but they do need experienced leadership guiding critical decisions.

MyCRO™ was built specifically for this stage of growth.

It provides access to executive-level risk leadership without the full-time commitment, allowing businesses to scale responsibly while aligning risk oversight with revenue, complexity, and operational maturity.

Instead of hiring too early—or waiting too long—MyCRO™ gives growing Texas businesses a practical middle ground:
the right leadership, at the right level, at the right time.

The Three Pillars of MyCRO™

Contract Review

Contracts are one of the largest—and most underestimated—sources of business risk for Texas companies.

MyCRO™ reviews contracts your business is providing and receiving, including:

• Client contracts and service agreements

• Vendor and subcontractor agreements

• Master Service Agreements (MSAs)

• Lease and operational contracts

• Insurance and risk-transfer requirements

Our role is not legal advice.
Our role is risk clarity—helping leadership understand contractual exposure, insurance implications, and mitigation options before problems arise.

---

Compliance Support

As Texas businesses grow, compliance expectations increase through regulations, contracts, and industry standards. Poor compliance often results in denied claims, increased premiums, or strained business relationships.

MyCRO™ supports businesses in becoming and remaining compliant, including:

• Identifying applicable regulatory and contractual requirements

• Establishing practical, repeatable compliance frameworks

• Supporting safety documentation and internal controls

• Preparing for audits, renewals, and third-party reviews

• Reducing compliance gaps that affect insurability

The goal is not bureaucracy.
The goal is defensibility and readiness.

---

Risk Management & Mitigation

Risk management is the discipline of identifying exposures before they become losses.

MyCRO™ works alongside Texas business owners and leadership teams to evaluate:

• Operational and workplace risks

• Claims trends and loss drivers

• Safety culture and accountability gaps

• Alignment between operations and insurance structure

Strong risk management protects people, strengthens operations, and often leads to more favorable underwriting outcomes and long-term insurance pricing.

A Neutral Third-Party Risk Partner

You do not need to be an EIS insurance client to participate in MyCRO™.

Many Texas businesses engage MyCRO™ specifically as a neutral third party, acting as an intermediary between the company and its existing insurance broker. In this role, EIS provides independent risk insight without carrier bias.

That option is available and respected.

At the same time, transparency matters. Eastman Insurance Solutions is first and foremost an insurance agency with deep expertise in Texas industries. When risk leadership and insurance strategy are aligned, outcomes are often stronger—but alignment is not required.

---

Available to EIS Clients and Non-Clients

MyCRO™ is available to:

• Existing EIS Texas insurance clients

• Businesses insured elsewhere

• Organizations seeking advisory-only risk leadership

For EIS clients, participation and pricing may depend on the size and complexity of the insurance account. Some engagements may be included or partially included, while others require an additional investment.

For non-clients, MyCRO™ is delivered as a standalone advisory service with clearly defined scope.

How Engagements Are Structured

MyCRO™ engagements are scalable and designed to meet businesses where they are.

Entry-level advisory support begins at $1,000 per month with expanded service levels available for organizations requiring deeper involvement, ongoing oversight, or embedded risk leadership.

Specific scope and pricing are discussed during a strategy conversation to ensure alignment.
