Strategies and Support
Quality HSE Solutions can support your business during tender, execution of contract and operations with customised strategies and support.
Risk Management
Risk is about uncertainty. Building a framework around this uncertainty allows for effective management of risk.
Quality HSE Solutions offers its clients a risk-based approach to improving its foundation, its systems and processes which drives the delivery of its products and services.
Through analysis, based on the Quality HSE Solutions Optimised Organisation model, associated risks are identified and improvement strategies are developed. By identifying and managing risk, barriers and unplanned events can be reduced and opportunities for improvement can be capitalised upon.
An organisation that proactively manages its risk can avoid impulsive reactions and the need to go into ‘fire-fighting’ mode to rectify problems that could have been anticipated.
Risk management is a cornerstone of the serves Quality HSE Solutions offers its client and forms the first step in the continual improvement process.
As a stand-alone option for improving your businesses foundation, or as part of the development and delivery of an opitmised organisation, Quality HSE Solutions consultants are available to assist your business.
Continual Improvement
Quality HSE Solutions are experts in continual improvement analysis and evaluation.
A continual improvement process is an ongoing effort to improve products, services, and processes.
Continual improvement is a requirement of all ISO and other Standards that an Optimised Organisation utilises. This requirement provides an organisation a process that adds tangible value to its business.
To meet continual improvement requirements, an organisation must demonstrate the evaluation and review of its systems and processes. This is accomplished through the develop and implementation of internal assessments, which is based on risks posed to the business.
The findings of these risk assessments are analysed and evaluated in order to deliver an improvement plan that will support the growth of effectiveness and efficiencies within an organisation.
Culture Improvement
Quality HSE Solutions are in the business of assisting organisations to achieve their goals which is why we have developed our Optimised Organisation model.
An organisation which choses to build its foundation of systems and processes to reflect those utilised by an Optimised Organisation will be rewarded with a strong performance culture.
Qualities of a strong performance culture include:
Embracing a Change Mindset - Change is central to innovation and growth in an Optimised Organisation. An Optimised Organisations continue to evaluation its strategies, improve its systems and processes, and develop its workforce and management teams, in an effort to obtain a strong performance culture across the organisation.
Develop Strong Leaders - A strong performance culture is driven and supported by leaders who are empowered to inspire their teams to continually improve. This is achieved through collective leadership participation in an organisation’s strategic development and decision-making processes, which supports the alignment of service line leaders to drive the successes of an organisation.
Empowering People - Optimised Organisations encourage individuals to ask questions and make decisions. By trusting in its leadership team to encourage and support its workforce to take an active role in the successes of the organisation, its staff will feel empowered to problem solve and to try new approaches to old.
Adopt a Strategy of Continual Improvement - Organisations with strong performance cultures constantly strive to simplify and align its systems and processes to further achieve effectiveness and efficiencies across the business. These organisations measure progress, monitor its goals and report on an organisation’s performance, which is shared with the entire organisation.
Subcontractor Management
Quality HSE Solutions assist businesses to management their stakeholder and legal responsibilities through the development and support of subcontractor management programs, which help ensure consistency across and reduces risk to an organisation.
Successful subcontractor management reduces risk to an organisation. Through an internal vetting process an organisation can ensure the same high standard of quality demonstrated internally is duplicated by its subcontractors. This alignment of ethos and values is reflected in the delivery of your products and services. Successful subcontractor management can also reduce rework and associated costs, and can also increase profitability.
Work Health and Safety Legislation indicates that organisations has the same duty of care for its subcontractors as it is for its employees. This means organisations utilising subcontractors must be able to demonstrate that it has in place processes to vet subcontractors in order to confirm legal compliance, and that its subcontractors understand all compliance requirements of the organisation.
Organisations must also demonstrate that its subcontractors have participated in risk workshops relevant to the works being conducted, have the training and competencies required to undertake the works being conducted, and have been included in all relevant communications.
Negotiating subcontractor management to ensure quality of product and compliance to regulatory requirements can be a time consuming and daunting exercise. Outsourcing all or part of this service will often prove to be quicker and more efficient, while also providing fresh/industry best practice insights that help your business improve.

Leadership Training and Coaching
Quality HSE Solutions assist businesses to develop and empower their business leaders in order to achieve its goals and objectives.
Our Optimised Organisation model outlines the positive impacts a strong leadership team can have on an organisation. Our model demonstrates that an aligned, engaged and knowledgeable leadership team contributes to the organisation’s success.
A leadership team must be aligned and must support each other in complimentary roles within an organisation. Examples of poorly-aligned leadership teams can be seen in organisations whose business strategies do not value a One-Organisation approach. The disadvantages found with this approach is that the organisation doesn’t gain the collective knowledge that sits within its leadership team.
When leadership teams are not brought together to discuss business strategy, contribute to the setting of goals and objectives, or to input on area-specific requirements in the day-to-day running of the business, the organisation loses valuable knowledge.
With this model, leaders of a organisation’s service lines can act independently of the overall strategies, systems and processes which result in the reduction of effectiveness and efficiencies across a business.
This model also exposes organisations to the risks of losing valuable business leaders to other organisations with a more optimised business strategy.
Quality HSE Solutions offer its clients bespoke leadership and coaching solutions, in partnership with a well established boutique Training and Coaching organisation with 30 years experience in industries throughout Australia.
Carbon Footprint / Carbon Offset
Quality HSE Solutions offers its client a tangible solution to its environmental contribution.
Our trained and knowledgeable consultants can assist an organisation to determine its carbon footprint. Utilising industry acceptable criteria we conduct an environmental risk assessment to
determine what outputs within an organisation contribute to its carbon footprint. The degree to which these outputs contribute to its carbon footprint will be determined.
Once assessment and analysed, Quality HSE Solutions develop a report detailing its findings, along with a mitigation strategy that we can assist an organisation to implement.
The reported mitigation strategies includes the opportunity, through partnership with global non-for-profit organisations, for an organisation to offset its carbon footprint. These offset partnerships are structured to allow an organisation to support a worthwhile cause which support the environment, both here is Australia and around the world.
The advantages of carbon offset includes a positive contribution to the environment as well as offering advantages in the marketplace.
