Infrastructure Design and Review

Human Factors Consultancy Support for New Infrastructure Integration, Design and Review

Think Systems provide specialised Human Factors (HF) consultancy services to support the development of industry-compliant designs and the review of detailed design submissions. Our expertise has been applied to infrastructure improvement projects, ensuring designs meet ergonomic, operational, and safety requirements.

Key Services Offered:

• Design Review: Conduct comprehensive reviews of design drawings, layouts, and 3D models to ensure adherence to HF good practices and ergonomic standards.
• Workshop Participation and Facilitation: Attend design review workshops to offer HF input and guidance, including the evaluation of general arrangement drawings for ergonomic considerations and user-friendliness.
• User Engagement: Collaborate with end users to assess the context of use and task requirements for new equipment and operating processes, ensuring that the designs meet real-world operational needs.
• Day-in-the-Life Analysis: Develop a “Day In The Life Of” (DITLO) study to capture operational requirements for future states. This process includes site visits to engage with operators using similar equipment, ensuring the designs are aligned with actual user needs and challenges.
• Human Factors Considerations Register (HFCR): Create a comprehensive HFCR to communicate and document Human Factors considerations, guiding decision-making throughout the design development process.

Our services ensure that designs are optimised for usability, safety, and efficiency, providing value to both the user and the organisation.
