Course Description

INTRODUCTION

Tripod Beta is a renowned method for incident analysis leading to proactive process control measures. It does not just focus on the immediate, human, causes of the incident, but identifies the structural flaws that allowed the incident in question to occur. The Investigation framework clarifies unknowns and uncertainties and thus leads to insights. Underlying causes are identified and lead to well considered conclusions and management actions, strengthening the organization's sustainability as well as business and safety performance. 

Scientific research at Leiden (NL) and Manchester (UK) Universities forms the backbone of the Tripod Theory. Many years of applied research and extensive practical use have made the matured Tripod theory the best solution for both proactive and reactive risk management. Many companies and other large organizations have gained the benefits of using the Tripod methodology, namely a considerable, measurable reduction in incident rates and a firm grip on risks.  

In the Tripod Beta methodology the investigation process goes hand-in-hand with the analysis process.

This Root Cause Analysis using Tripod Beta Method training course will highlight:

  • How to gather the adequate evidences to identify human and organizational failings
  • Incident Investigation as per Tripod Beta Methodology
  • Structured way of incident / accident investigation and analysis
  • Benefits of using Tripod Beta method
  • Software used as support for the Tripod Beta incident Investigation
  • How to create actual incident / accident investigation database and use it for developing optimal mitigation measures

At the end of this Root Cause Analysis using Tripod Beta Method training course, you will learn to:

  • Conduct a structured incident/accident investigation and analysis
  • Create a effective Tripod Beta diagram-explaining the whole incident
  • Determine Basic Risk Factors of your company
  • Develop effective remedial actions
  • Use the investigation findings for cost effective measures of improvement
  • Use software support for developing Tripod Beta Diagram and Incident Report

Training Methodology

  • Hands-on training rather than theoretic learning (examples based on real life industry cases)
  • Active participation in the training-participants actually conduct the analysis of the incidents using the methodology
  • Interactive training, using the video materials, simulations and re-enactments of actual incidents
