Why Tripod?

Tripod Solutions is leader in incident analysis and operational risks identification. It has
developed and works with various tools for Pro-active as well as Re-active risk management
tools, to identify the underlying causes (latent failures) in your organisation. Applying Tripod
tools and methods will significantly help you reducing the probability of future incidents in
your organisation. Our approach is unique in the incident analysis discipline, since:

 It focuses on the organisation rather than on the individual and identifies the start of
business disruption processes
 Tripod is the only globally accepted philosophy and set of tools that has proven to be
able to eliminate organisational components of accidents.
 It identifies why things happened, and not what happened, it achieves far reaching
conclusions on underlying factors that normally are not even studied.
 It prevents business upsets at the beginning, and not at the end of your business
process.
 It is renowned for its wide scientific base; the Tripod theory was developed by
scientists from the Universities of Leiden (the Netherlands) and Manchester (United
Kingdom). Prof. W.A. Wagenaar and Prof. J. Reason, well-known for their expertise
on human error, were involved in this research that led to the Tripod Theory and it's
accompanying products.
 Its validity has been proven by extensive scientific research and still is subject to
many scientific research.
