New Scottish safety consultancy launched

A new company specialising in delivering bespoke services to improve safety and performance has been launched.

Enhancing Excellence has been set up to support clients in safety-critical industries such as renewable energy, marine, construction, transport, mining and healthcare.

It builds on sister company Salos Sunesis, a global oil and gas performance training provider since 1996.

The focus is on helping clients develop a effective culture to ensure they are able to proactively manage and mitigate human errors, which are the primary root cause of workplace incidents.

Prior to launch, Enhancing Excellence recently delivered a bespoke programme to the Scottish Prison Service, engaging with senior leaders and operational managers.

Graham Smart, managing director at Enhancing Excellence, said: “Our team has vast experience in helping organisations tackle human performance and safety cultural challenges.

“We have embraced and built upon human factor principles and techniques that positively helped transform the global aviation industry 35 years ago, and we are now focused on applying our expertise across a wide range of sectors.

Grant Wallace, managing director of Salos Sunesis and chair of Enhancing Excellence, said: “Many organisations have relied heavily on traditional risk management systems and processes to keep their operations and workers safe.

“Systems are often set to fail because they do not incorporate human factor principles effectively or account for the fact that humans are prone to error.

“Salos has seen the success of this approach across multiple clients where we have helped them assess, equip and execute to a new level, which can also deliver multi-million-pound operational savings.”

“We look forward to generating similar success stories for clients through the work of Enhancing Excellence.”
