We hear the term “Gap to Potential” more and more these days, but what does it mean? Put simply, it is the difference between your current business performance and your ideal (or optimum) performance. Closing this gap involves working more effectively and deploying your business resources more optimally. Part of this gap-closing can be through digitalisation (see Equinor’s take on digitalisation here https://www.equinor.com/en/magazine/digitalisation-is-changing-our-lives.html). Simplifying and automating processes, data driven decision-making, instant access to real-time updated information and so forth are some of the benefits of deploying good digital systems. bSafer can help with your digital transition.

Do YOU Know Your Risks?!
Leaders know that a healthy risk register is key to managing the threats to your business. But it´s easy to lose track of whats important in comprehensive registers.

Then use the filter function to instantly access all your TOP RISKS. Check the real time status of related actions and follow-up those responsible where needed. bSafer gives you the up-to-date overview you need to stay on top of your key risks.

Safety Culture - More Resources in Progress
We had an excellent response to our recent Safety Moment relating to Safety Culture (click here to see it). So much so, we are working on a great new Safety Culture resource which you will be able to download for free as soon as its finished. Follow our Linkedin page to be notified and to receive the latest news and resources from the bSafer Team.
T is for... Tags
The summer holiday period is in full swing, but we have been busy behind the scenes adding TAGS, a great new feature allowing bSafer users to categorise their reports with DIRECT CAUSES and UNDERLYING CAUSES. This in turn helps you identify negative trends in incidents, accidents etc which then can be addressed with clear actions, directly improving your safety performance. Contact us for more information or to arrange a quick demonstration.

Re-emerging from Development
We´ve been quiet recently… Sorry about that, but its for a good reason. We´ve spent much of the pandemic lockdown rolling up a huge number of new features and improvements into bSafer together with a major future-busting update of the entire bSafer platform. Not only that, we´ve added a completely new module!! But more about that later.
I can say though that in the coming weeks we will start rolling out our new resources page with some great insightful and (most importantly) useful content, together with guides and tips on typical QHSE and Risk related topics. And of course we will be blowing the trumpet for our new bSafer module..!
In the meantime, look after yourselves, friends and family in these challenging times and stay safe.
