Four Essential Profiles to Engage in the Dersalis Implementation

To ensure a successful implementation of the Dersalis platform, it is essential to involve the key decision-makers from the start. This ensures the necessary resources are allocated, processes are well defined, and the team is aligned with the change.


1. Executive leadership​

Support from executive leadership is fundamental to ensuring the transition to Dersalis gets strategic priority and resource allocation.

  • Make sure leadership is aware of the platform's benefits and its impact on safety and productivity
  • Ensure the change is planned into the company's budget and annual goals
  • Have an internal sponsor on the leadership team who can answer questions and advocate for the project internally

2. Health and safety team​

The HSE team plays a critical role in the Dersalis implementation, as it ensures safety policies are being met.

  • Inform the health team about the adoption of Dersalis and engage them in planning and implementation
  • Ask the person responsible for safety for a list of regulatory requirements the platform needs to meet
  • Integrate Dersalis into audit requirements and safety reporting from the start

3. Operations managers​

Operations managers are the users who will ensure Dersalis is applied correctly day to day and that risk events are promptly resolved.

  • Invite a few experienced managers to test the platform and provide feedback on usability
  • Involve them in the pilot phase so they can identify the best implementation flow for their teams
  • Make sure they are trained to support operators in using the platform

4. IT and information security team​

For the tool to function properly, these teams will need to evaluate and grant access to the Dersalis platform.

  • Ensure the solution complies with information security policies from the start
  • Send the IT team the access authorization document for the Dersalis platform
  • Run tests together with the IT team to ensure the tool works correctly
