Services / Safety Reality Assessment

SAFETY REALITY ASSESSMENT

One material problem, diagnosed properly.

A fixed-scope assessment of one safety problem that keeps coming back, tested against evidence from the work rather than the documents.

Duration

Four weeks from scope agreement

Scope

One material problem that keeps coming back

Led by

The principal, from scoping call to presentation

You get

A written report and an executive presentation

HOW IT WORKS

Four weeks, four steps.

An offer to assess your whole safety culture is too broad to price or deliver, so we don't make it. We take one problem and give you a defensible answer to it.

01

Scope the problem

A scoping call to agree the one problem worth four weeks, and what a defensible answer would look like.

02

Test the hypotheses

We set out what would have to be true for the problem to persist, then test each one against independent evidence from the work.

03

Rate the controls

Each critical control involved is rated across seven states, from designed to assured.

04

Report and present

A written report and an executive presentation: why the problem persists and what management should do about it.

The first state a control fails to reach is the finding, and it is almost never the first one.

SEVEN CONTROL STATES

A control on paper is not a control in the field.

Documents show what was intended. They can't evidence what happens at the workface. Each critical control is rated by the furthest state the evidence supports.

THIS IS NOT AN AUDIT

An audit checks the system matches the standard. This checks it controls the risk.

What you buy is the outcome: a defensible explanation of why a material safety problem persists in your organisation, and what management should do about it.

AFTER THE ASSESSMENT

Then you need to know whether it stayed fixed.

It starts with a scoping call.

Tell us about the problem that keeps coming back. We'll tell you straight whether it suits a four-week assessment, and if not, what would.
