Visualize LOPA calculations
Spreadsheets are hard to read. Make your LOPA study visual and easier to understand.
Spreadsheets are hard to read. Make your LOPA study visual and easier to understand.
Make your LOPA calculations more realistic by taking into account all bowtie scenarios when calculating the frequency of the top event.
Frequencies and probabilities can change over time. LOPA plugin allows you to calculate current and future frequencies.
Bowtie diagrams give a better understanding of your risk scenarios and show how these are controlled. In classic bowtie modeling, the decision as to whether there are sufficient effective barriers to control these scenarios is based on expert judgment.
When your organization has reliable and sufficient safety data available, the LOPA plugin will allow you to use this data to make more objective and substantiated decisions.
Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA) is a semi-quantitative risk analysis methodology. Hereby the frequency of a negative event is calculated according to the risk reduction delivered by the independent protection layers (barriers).
The BowTieXP LOPA plug-in automatically calculates the frequency of a consequence, given the initial frequency of all the threats and the Probability of Failure on Demand (PFD) of the barriers. This allows you to easily compare the target consequence frequency with the reality of daily operations.
Make your risk calculations visible with the LOPA plug-in and put them in an easy-to-understand, barrier based perspective. This plug-in can be added to both BowTieXP Standard and Advanced.

BowTieXP is the most advanced software tool based on the bowtie method. The visual risk assessment the method provides improves risk understanding, communication and management.
IncidentXP allows an organization to maximize learning from incidents: link investigation results to the bowtie risk assessment to detect trends and improve your risk assessment and management.
