ATK has been specifically designed to help Organisations with risk assessment, risk management and mitigation

ATK can help Organisations manage the risk assessment life cycle by providing; powerful assessment scheduling tools; Tablet PC based software for your Assessors; one-click data analysis and reporting; tools to build and manage action plans - all within one powerful platform.

ATK can be remotely managed by our staff. This means that your IT department won't need to worry about upgrading or maintaining your ATK installation. When you join our Service Pack Programme, we'll ensure that your installation of ATK is kept up-to-date with the latest enhancements and features.

ATK provides powerful data analysis and reporting tools. These tools allow Managers to generate reports based on one or more assessments. Progress and performance can be determined quickly. Report templates provide a way to achieve great looking reporting with the click of a mouse.

Not only can you schedule assessments for the year ahead, you can also schedule reports. ATK will automatically generate you reports as your Assessors submit their findings.

Most assessments will have actions or tasks associated with them. Competent Assessors will identify actions that, when carried out, will mitigate any risks observed during an assessment. ATK provides an integrated Action Plan tool that allows Managers to quickly generate Action Plans based on assessment findings.

ATK provides simple but effective tools that allow Managers to schedule assessments. Assessments can be scheduled on a day-by-day basis or in advance.

The assessment schedule is divided into three main components; a year planner; a summary of assessments for any given day; and finally a summary of a highlighted assessment.

Using the year planner, Managers can view scheduled assessments for any year. The year planner provides an at-a-glance status of assessments. Pending, overdue, in-progress and completed assessments are all shown on the year planner.

Assessments for a given day are easliy viewed by clicking on the required date on the year planner. The schedule will list all of the assessments for that day along with some information on each assessment.

A more detailed summary for a specific assessment can be viewed by clicking on the desired assessment. ATK will display details for the assessment such as; title and description; the due date; the list of assigned assessors and any additional assessing notes.

Features at a Glance...

  • Unlimited Assessments for any date
  • One or more Assessments per day
  • For one or more Assessors
  • For single or multiple Organisations
  • Reports based on Assessment completion
  • Different types of Assessment
You can schedule assessments for one or more Assessors. For example, you may have a team of Assessors who regularly assess a specific risk in your organisation. Its easy to schedule an assessment for the team. You can ask each Assessor to record their own observations, or, ask the team to assess as a group and designate an Assessor as the scribe.

ATK automatically tracks and monitors the status of your assessments. Overdue assessments are highlighted on the year planner. Managers can enable email notications to ensure that Assessors are reminded of upcoming and overdue assessments.

Need to report progress to Management? ATK provides you with the tools to generate an up-to-date assessment schedule. Simply select the dates you are interested in, and ATK will generate an schedule report showing all scheduled assessments, their status, which Assessors are overdue and any additional notes.

ATK provides simple but effective tools that allow Managers to schedule assessments. Assessments can be scheduled on a day-by-day basis or in advance.

Assessments are carried out by Assessors using Tablet PC's. Assessment teams vary in size, but ATK will comfortably scale to suit your needs - whether you have one Assessor or 50 Assessors. Assessors can share a Tablet PC or have a Tablet each.

You schedule the workload for each Assessor. Assessors then synchronise their Tablets to receive the latest scheduled assessments. Assessors then login to the ATK assessment software, open an assessment and start recording their observations.

In addition to multiple Assessor/Tablet support, ATK also provides support for one or more types of assessment. These assessments will be available to your Assessors - providing you choose to schedule such an assessment.

Since your Assessors will record findings using a Tablet PC, they can be truely mobile. This is an added benifit for assessments that require Assessors to go off-site to collect their data. Furthermore, using ATK , your Assessors do not need to be in the same office, building or even country to get their latest assessments.
All that is required is an Internet connection and your Assessors can receive new assessments and submit completed assessments remotely. Alternatively, ATK can be configured so that your Assessors return to base and submit their findings - daily, weekly or monthly.

ATK is a powerful assessing tool, allowing you to assign assessments to individual Assessors or groups of Assessors. Where a group assessment is scheduled, ATK gives you ability to designate a Team Leader.

When assessments are complete, you can analyse the data and produce reports using our one-click reporting tools.

You've collected data through your Assessment Team, provided an audit trail and conformed to industry and/or legal requirements. Now...what do you do with that data?

ATK provides powerful one-click data analysis and reporting tools. These tools allow you to see at a glance how your Organisation is performing and easily idenity risks.
Additionally, ATK gives you ability to query your data to uncover trends. For example, you might wish to anaylyse data in your assessments for frequently of a specific hazard or risk. ATK gives you ability to this.

To create a report, simply choose which assessments you want to analyse, select a report template or style and ATK will do the rest.

With each type of assessment ATK provides a suite of data analysis modes and reporting styles. All you need to do is select the mode and template most applicable and ATK will do the rest.

The finished report is archived by the system. You can view, print, email reports.

Each report is assigned a unique identifier and ATK uses this identifier to maintain yor audit trail. By default, every report contains a list of the assessment that were used in the data analyse mode. When viewing the report on screen, you can load and view any assessment by 'clicking' on the assessment identifier.

Features at a Glance...

  • One-click report generation!
  • Create reports from one or more assessments
  • Schedule reports when assessments complete
  • Choose from a variety of reporting styles
  • Different report styles for different assessments
  • View, Print and Email Reports
  • Audit Trail maintained for reports and assessments
  • Support for 'Rolling' reports

In terms of your audit trail, you can trace back from each report to the assessments used to generate the report.

Reports can be scheduled in advanced. These reports are automatically generated by ATK whenever assessment data is submitted - thats one less task to worry about.

In addition to automatic report generation, ATK provides support for 'rolling reports'. In a rolling report, ATK automatically refreshs the report each time an Assessor submits their findings. For example, you might have an assessment programme that spans a six month period, with assessment twice a week for the period. ATK gives you ability to schedule a report and and refresh that report each time an assessment is completed. This gives a rolling snapshot of performance and risk.

ATK offers tools that make managing actions and tasks easy.

Competent Assessors will not only record their observations, but all also suggest remedial actions or tasks. These will be designed to mitigate a specific risk or issue that has been observed during the assessment.

Using ATK, you can select one or more assessments and extract any actions to build an Action Plan.

Each assessment that ATK supports, allows Assessors to specific Actions. You can build an Action Plan that includes all of the actions from your assessments. For example, at the end of your 6 month assessment period you could select all of the completed assessments and create an Action Plan. ATK will extract each action from your set of assessments and produce the plan.

Mananager can edit the Action Plan. Actions can be assigned to key personel or departments, given a priority and a completion date. Actions Plans can then be printed or emailed to the assigned individuals.

Actions are monitored by ATK. Any overdue actions are flagged in the assessment schedule. You can also elect to have email notifications to the assigned person and yourself for reminders.

Each action and Action Plan is assigned a unique identifier. Each assessment is highlighted in the Action Plan. This gives you the ability to trace actions back to the originating assessment. Thus maintaining your audit trail.

You can also create Action Plans based on reports. Reports will typically include data from multiple assessments. Its therefore easy to create an Action Plan based on any report. Action Plans created in this way will include the report's unique identifier. This helps you to trace actions back to the originating assessment via the report.

ATK scales to fit the size and needs of your assessment program. We identify three scales of installation for ATK. With any of these, we can configure ATK to work in either local or distributed modes.

In local mode, ATK operates on a local Intranet. It is accessible from one specific Terminal (PC) or can be accessed across the Intranet from designated Terminals.

In distributed mode, ATK is managed by your programme Manager. The Assessor(s) may be located in the same office/building or located remotely - even in a different country. For example, you would opt for a distributed system if you have Assessors located at satellite locations.
