Our Sector Experience

How SHERPA Delivers For The Aviation Sector

This video demonstrates the use of the SHERPA methodology and software, which until recently was called the Human Factors Risk Manager. This shows how we can develop a detailed task analysis, how we can predict potential errors in the task, and identify factors influencing the likelihood of those errors.
