Why all Health & Safety software solutions are not the same

By BCarm

We believe Health and Safety has 3 intrinsic components:

COMPLIANCE – understanding the legal requirements and dealing with these in the context of the organisation

PROCESS – how you operationalise the COMPLIANCE so that you have a living, real-time process, and 

PEOPLE – because the best COMPLIANCE and PROCESS still requires engagement of the relevant people in the business.

If you’re a H&S Professional, you’ll have COMPLIANCE under control and if you are reading this article, you might be thinking about improving or evolving your process with software.

Let’s look at why not all software solutions are the same?

There are 2 types of “software” providers, tech companies who have systemised a process and a company like BCarm, a risk management solution provider, who provides software to drive the PROCESS but whose proposition can also support you with the COMPLIANCE and the PEOPLE components.

So, our “software” discussions look quite different.

We’ll want to understand the environment you work in and the day-to-day challenges you have to achieve COMPLIANCE or get as close as you can.

We’ll talk about how your organisation is aligned with safety and how it’s measured; how well people’s Roles and Responsibilities are defined and what visibility exists around their activity.

We’ll talk about performance data, so that you have the critical information to analyse what’s going on in the business, and how you currently use LEAD and LAG indicators to proactively manage risk and build alignment. And if you don’t have LEAD data, we’ll talk about how you can create it.

We’ll talk about what you would change in your process tomorrow if you could and why. How much you feel your existing process is a barrier to engagement and what would change it. And we’ll ask what has stopped you from doing it in the past. 

And we’ll talk about Employee Engagement and the cultural challenges you may face introducing something new, particularly involving a technology step change. And if necessary, we’ll hold a pre-mortem with you to spot the potential problems on the way.

So, as you can see not all software solutions are the same.
