Incident Investigation

11 CONSULTANTS LISTED

Incident investigation consultants determine why events actually happened — using structured root cause methodologies such as TapRooT, fishbone analysis, five-why, and causal factor charting — and build internal investigation capability through training and program development. Engagements range from independent investigation of serious injuries and near misses to program design: reporting systems, investigation team structures, evidence preservation protocols, and corrective action tracking with effectiveness checks. Many also advise on OSHA recordability under 29 CFR 1904 and support privileged investigations coordinated with counsel. Expect an investigation that follows evidence past employee error to the management system factors underneath, findings documented defensibly, and corrective actions that target causes — actions that only address symptoms guarantee the event repeats.
