for the industries in 2016\/17, my co-founder Sam and I realised that the real issue at hand for industrial organisations is the mayhem that exists in managing hundreds of ever-changing standard operating procedures across multiple business functions and dispersed project teams.<\/p>\r\n    <p>When an incident occurs on site it doesn&#8217;t exist in isolation, it often sends a shockwave through the people working on a single project, or in some cases throughout the entire organisation.<\/p>\r\n    <p>Often this shockwave results in significant negative financial and production repercussions.<\/p>\r\n    <p>At present, it is practically impossible for industrial organisations to assess the impact of performance in one business function, such as safety, to another business function, such as finance.<\/p>\r\n    <p><em>&#8220;Across the business last month we had 4 environmental incidents, how much did that cost us?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\r\n    <p>&#8230;we have been hearing
