One model Bowtie to control register to audit-ready PDF

A precise risk picture for the people who design, own, verify, and audit critical controls.

  • Process safety
  • Asset integrity
  • Risk & assurance
  • Engineering consultancies
Supports established practice across
  • IEC 31010
  • CCPS Process Safety
  • ICAO Doc 9859
  • ISO 14971
  • RCM / Asset Integrity
  • WHS Psychosocial CoP

01The connected model

Your bowtie should be more than a picture.

Static diagrams explain the workshop. Connected controls carry the decision into operations, assurance, and the next review.

When files drift apart

The diagram changes.
The spreadsheet does not.

  • Control ownership becomes hard to trace
  • Linked controls get re-keyed in multiple places
  • Audit evidence is assembled after the work

With one connected model

Change the risk picture.
Every view follows.

  • Linked control copies stay consistent
  • Criticality, owners, and control effectiveness stay attached
  • The complete register is ready to export

02From workshop to assurance

One source of truth. Five useful views.

Each view answers a different engineering question without breaking the thread back to the model.

01

Visual reasoning

Bowtie diagram

Map threats, preventive controls, the risk, recovery controls, consequences, and the conditions that degrade a control.

02

Load-bearing controls

Control summary

See which controls appear across the most threats and consequences, so review attention goes where it matters.

03

Structured ownership

Control register

Keep type, criticality, control effectiveness, owner, linked instances, and notes together in a structured register.

04

Assurance criteria

Performance standards

Define the objective, criteria, verification, degradation controls, target performance, and triggers on the control itself.

05

Review-ready evidence

Audit-ready PDF

Export the summary, preventive and mitigative registers, degradation factors, and performance standards as one multi-page record.

Bring one of your risks.
Build the evidence around it.

04The picture and the proof

Evidence that stays connected to the engineering.

The same model travels from facilitation to review without being translated into a second system.

  • Run the workshop visuallyBuild and revise the causal picture in the room.
  • Assign and assure the controlsCarry ownership and performance into the register.
  • Export one complete recordPrepare clean evidence for reviews, safety cases, and procurement.

05Work where the risk lives

Browser when connected.
Desktop when you are not.

Use the signed-in web workspace, or run the native desktop edition fully offline on macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Web workspace

Signed-in access with autosave under your account. Exports are produced locally in your browser.

Offline desktop

Your diagrams and registers stay on your machine unless you explicitly export or share them.

Open exports

PNG for slides, SVG for print, JSON for revision control, and PDF for the complete register.
