TABIE: A Task Analysis Based Incident Evaluation technique

Want to transform incident investigations from reactive to strategic? Discover TABIE – a methodology that integrates retrospective analysis with proactive risk assessment, bringing insight to your safety management system without endless mountains of data.

What you will learn

This comprehensive technical paper introduces TABIE, a groundbreaking methodology that bridges the gap between reactive incident investigation and proactive risk assessment. You’ll discover:

How to map incident sequences using Hierarchical Task Analysis
Techniques for identifying critical human failures across different activity types
Methods to evaluate Performance Influencing Factors (PIFs) that affect failure likelihood
Strategies for developing targeted interventions based on PIF analysis
Ways to quantitatively predict the effectiveness of improvement measures
How to extend your analysis to precursor tasks and latent failures
Practical approaches for integrating TABIE with existing risk analysis tools like Bow Tie diagrams

TABIE helps you move beyond mountains of incident data to gain actionable insights that reduce risk by addressing the underlying human factors that contribute to incident.
