  2. What is BowTie Pro™? BowTie Pro™ is a technically advanced yet easy to use tool to facilitate the creation of risk assessments. A bow-tie diagram is a powerful visual presentation of the risk assessment process that can be readily understood by the non-specialist.

  3. Key features of BowTie Pro™ • Powerful visual graphical user interface • Fast, versatile and easy to use • Complete with standard reports, and visual outputs • Facilitates the systematic development of bow-ties • Allows the documentation of all shortfalls identified in the risk assessment process • Full customisation of the Risk Matrix as to its size, categories, colours and definitions • Dual language; the bow-tie diagram can easily be produced in two different languages • Various Analysis modules

  4. What is a bow-tie diagram? Knot= Hazard and hazardous event (What we don’t want to happen) This is a bow-tie diagram Left Hand = Threats that will cause the hazardous event Right Hand = Consequences outcomes from the hazardous event Risk Assessment The Story = Controls Left Hand Side Protection Right hand side mitigation

  5. Example When a tiger is in the cage there is no problem An Example: The problem

  6. Example Ahhhh! …But if the tiger escapes Help Run

  7. BowTie Pro™ can be used to • Show the problem clearly • Highlight the Threats that can cause the problem • Display the Controls (barriers) to prevent the problem occurring • Describe the potential Consequences • Identify the recovery Controls required should the problem occur • Identify tasks and responsibilities • Assess the risks

  8. Creating a bow-tie diagram Step 1 : Enter the Hazard(top) and the Event to be prevented

  9. Creating a bow-tie diagram Step 2 : Enter the Threats that could cause the event to occur

  10. Creating a bow-tie diagram Step 3 : Enter the Consequences of the event occurring with the assessed risk

  11. Assessing the Risk • The risk can be easily assessed by selecting a category, e.g. People, and then selecting an item from the risk matrix on the consequence screen. • The results of the matrix selection are displayed in the consequence box on the diagram • The categories and the matrix can be fully configured to meet your needs

  12. Creating a bow-tie diagram Step 4 : Enter the Barrier Controls to prevent the event occurring

  13. Creating a bow-tie diagram Step 5 : Enter the Recovery Controls to mitigate against the consequences

  14. Controlling the event & telling the story • Controls can be entered on both sides of the event. • The controls tell us how we will manage the problem. The colour indicates the type of control Control Code Control Effectiveness The control description & Task Who is responsible • Controls also include details of: • The Task • The related documents • How it should be verified

  15. Creating a bow-tie diagram Step 6 : Enter the items that will cause a Control to fail

  16. Creating a bow-tie diagram Step 7 : Define the Barriers for the Threats to the Controls
