The platform
The whole safety program, in one system
Reports come in from the field, get evaluated the same way every time, and turn into actions somebody owns. What comes out the other end is a picture of the operation that leadership can act on.
Four jobs make a safety program.
Most tools cover one.
Reporting tools collect. Audit tools check. Neither closes the loop between the two. RISE is built around the whole of it, so nothing has to be carried from one system to another by hand.
Policy
What the operation has committed to, what it is aiming at, and how it knows whether it is getting there.
Risk management
Finding out what can hurt somebody, judging how bad it could be, and deciding what to do about it.
Assurance
Checking that the controls are working and that the fixes actually fixed something.
Promotion
Making sure the people doing the work know what was found and what changed.
Safety reporting
It comes in from the field
Hazards, incidents, near misses and post-duty reports, raised by whoever saw the event, on whatever they are already carrying. Scanning a code is all it takes, and nobody has to sign in to file one.
- Anonymous and de-identified reporting
- QR codes wherever the work happens
- Triage before anything moves
Risk assessments
Assess the work before it starts
Score a planned operation against your own criteria rather than a generic scale. The mitigations you decide on are tracked as part of the record instead of noted and forgotten, and an assessment can require approval before the work goes ahead.
- Mitigation tracking
- Thresholds and settings you configure
- Approvals before work proceeds
Safety risk management
One way to judge what comes in
Every report that needs one gets a risk evaluation: triaged, severity and probability assessed on the same scale every time, a strategy set, and acceptance recorded as you go rather than reconstructed later.
Hazards accumulate in a register instead of in one person's spreadsheet, and the controls the operation relies on live in a library you can point at when somebody asks what is protecting them.
- Risk evaluations
- Hazard register
- Control library
Safety assurance
Proving the fix worked
A safety case takes an issue all the way through: root cause analysis, a corrective action plan, monitoring, reassessment and verification. Actions carry an owner and a date, and can be set to require verification with evidence before they close: a note, a file or a link to the record that proves it. A safety case cannot reach resolved without a verifier, a date and notes.
Inspections and internal audits run off templates, or templates you build yourself, with findings, severity and the evidence attached to them. You set the response scale, and the option you mark as a finding is the one that raises a corrective action. The finished report can be exported as a PDF, or distributed straight to the people who need to read it.
- Case register with root cause analysis
- Action register with verification
- Inspections with your own response scale
- Internal audits with conformance and tasks
Safety promotion
Sent out, read, and acknowledged
Build a notice, attach what it needs, and send it to a distribution list. You can see who has read and acknowledged it and who has not, and nudge the ones who have not, which is the part that turns a notice into evidence.
Meetings carry an agenda set in advance, attendance recorded per person, decisions captured against each item, and action items raised out of the meeting itself and assigned with dates, where they join the action register with everything else.
- Promotions with attachments and distribution lists
- Read and acknowledged tracking
- Meeting minutes with agendas, decisions and actions
Safety policy
The goals, written down and measured
Your policy documentation lives in the system rather than on a shared drive nobody opens. Safety objectives carry indicators and targets that read from your own records, so progress against a goal is a live number rather than something assembled the week before a meeting.
Breach notices tell you when an indicator crosses the line you set, rather than when somebody happens to look.
- Your safety policy statement in one place
- Objectives with indicators and targets
- Breach notices and progress charts
- Advisories tied to the assets they concern
Documents
The manual an audit points at, not a copy of it
Manuals, procedures and the rest of the safety library live in the same account as the records. When an audit finding needs a procedure behind it, it links to the document itself, so the evidence and the manual can never drift apart the way an attachment does.
- Manuals kept apart from the general library
- Linked as audit evidence, not copied into it
- PDF and Word, tagged and searchable
RISE Agent
Ask it a question
Ask the way you would ask a person. It reads the reports, evaluations, actions and audits your account holds and answers from those records: what is trending, where actions are slipping, what needs attention this week.
- Answers in plain language, from your own data
- Recurring hazards and emerging risk across the operation
- Sees only what the person asking is allowed to see
Questions
Questions people ask
- What is a safety management system?
- A structured way of running safety as a process rather than as a reaction. It usually covers four areas: policy that says what the operation commits to, risk management for hazards, assurance that checks the controls work, and promotion that keeps people informed and reporting.
- Can we start with just one part of RISE?
- Yes. Most operations start with reporting, because it is the part that fails first and the part people notice. Risk evaluations, audits, inspections, objectives and promotions can be switched on later without moving any data, because it is the same account.
- How long does it take to set up?
- An administrator can build forms, set thresholds, create audit templates and invite the team in a day. Industry-appropriate form and audit templates are seeded when the account is created, so most operations are editing something rather than starting from a blank page.
