Adding Actions to Barriers

Bowtie Master’s actions feature allows users to determine where to prioritise their risk management efforts by adding a sticky note to the elements that need improving. 

To add actions in Bowtie Master, follow these steps: 

Step 1: In your bowtie diagram, double-click on a barrier, threat, or consequence. 

Step 2: A pop-up will appear on your screen. Click the ‘Actions’ button at the top right of the pop-up and click ‘add’ to create one or multiple actions. 

Step 3: Fill in the necessary details for your action, including the description and date. Once done, click ‘Save’. You should see a sticky note appear on your element. 

Step 4: When the action is complete, you can check the ‘Is Complete?’ button on the actions pop-up. 

Bowtie Master tip: you can view all of your actions in a table on your dashboard. Visit our guide, Configuring our Dashboard to learn more.
