Technical Presentation

The Full Circle Journey of Management System Design and Implementation | Room: Georgian A

This presentation will discuss the overall importance of designing fit-for-purpose management systems within an organization. It will discuss the struggle smaller organizations and ones with less mature safety cultures and systems will face when trying to design and implement management systems with robust organizational requirements and the difficulty it becomes to maintain with limited resources. 

The concept of diminishing returns on safety performance vs. time and resource investment as well as the need to have systems mature over time will be reviewed. How planning and setting of appropriate objectives and targets can help advance system elements based on performance reviews and initiatives will be discussed.
