Barrier Analysis (Bowtie XP)
Visual risk analysis methodology to understand hazards, preventive barriers and mitigation measures for major accident scenarios.
Understanding Risks Through Barrier Analysis
Barrier Analysis using Bowtie methodology is a structured approach to visualise hazards, threats and potential consequences of major accident scenarios. The bowtie model clearly illustrates the relationship between hazards, preventive barriers and recovery measures.
CIH Consult conducts Barrier Analysis studies to help organisations better understand risk pathways and strengthen safety controls within their operations.
