"Root Cause Analysis" Seminar and "Human Error Prevention" Seminar

Sept. 20, 2012 - Sept. 21, 2012

Persons who are responsible for identifying and reporting off-normal conditions, evaluating the conditions and their effects, identifying causal factors, recommending various types of corrective actions, tracking the implementation of corrective actions, and managing the overall system should consider attending this seminar.

Ben Marguglio's analytical logic and rigor, with unique analytical templates, yield greater consistency in the application of the various root cause analysis tools and greater effectiveness in the results of root cause analysis.

This seminar covers all of the elements of a problem / condition reporting, root cause analysis and corrective action system with emphasis on the following root cause analysis techniques: Failure Mode & Effects Analysis for hardware problems and Hazard-Barrier-Effects Analysis for management and technical process problems. Also, this seminar will cover a modified Hazard-Barrier-Effects Analysis technique that can be completed for precursors in four person-hours or less - a technique that allows the root cause analysis resource expenditure to be proportional to the significance of the problem, while still enabling the analyst to identify human performance root causes.
