Barrier Management is about understanding what your critical controls are, and assessing and monitoring their status in daily operation. Barrier Management as “to establish and maintain barriers so that the risk faced at any given time can be handled by preventing an undesirable incident from occurring or by limiting the consequences should such an incident occur”.
The Barrier Management module allows you to:
• Identify human, technical and organizational barriers
• Manage threats, major accident scenarios, effects and their barriers in one holistic view
• Have a line of sight from a corporate perspective down to various operational contexts, and individual barrier performance, action plans and improvement
• Identify missing or degraded barriers and manage implementation of corrections
• Proactively implement better controls and mitigations
• Plug in other operational elements such as incidents, audits, inspections, quality events, change programs and maintenance information to create relations between the barriers and any operational disturbances
