Systematic Cause Analysis Technique (SCAT)
2
SCAT helps you and your organisation learn from accidents and near-misses to prevent further human injury, environmental damage and quality losses.
SCAT is a simple but powerful tool to investigate the causation of loss events. SCAT is used by operational staff to quickly identify the corrective actions necessary to prevent similar events happening in the future.
SCAT is available as:
A poster in 30 languages (pdf format)
An app for phones, tablets and desktop

Root Cause Analysis and SCAT
3
• SCAT is based on DNV GL’s loss causation model
• All accidents are the result of similar basic causes
• Accidental losses are mainly due to management system failures
• The DNV GL Loss Causation Model helps us to understand why accidents
are caused and what must be done to control these causes
