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. The course is accredited by the Stichting Tripod Foundation and Energy Institute, the custodians of the Tripod Beta methodology.

This GLOMACS training course will highlight:

  • What can go wrong in our processes,
  • Identify risks and how they are assessed,
  • What preventative and corrective measures are in place to prevent incidents from happening?
  • Utilizing applicable compliance frameworks and assessing process in a barrier based manner
  • Monitoring and measuring how well your control measures are performing
  • 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
