As we bid farewell to a fast-paced progressive year, we reflect on the milestones and achievements that have shaped STC INSISO's journey throughout 2023.

2023 has been a challenging year for the world, with geopolitical events beyond the control of most, creating subdued trading conditions across many industries. Despite this, it’s been a transformational year for STC INSISO, we secured a strategic investment partner in BGF, we took big strides forward in product development, and we’ve added real value in new target sectors both here in the UK and Internationally.  

Watch the overview video below;

Join us as we explore the key areas that have made our year and set the stage for an even more promising 2024.

1. Investment by BGF: Helping Fuel Our Vision for Tomorrow

Our growth strategy saw us agree on an exciting partnership with BGF, delivering a strategic investment that will accelerate the delivery of a transformational product roadmap. The backing of BGF has not only provided financial support but also a wealth of technology growth and business expertise. Their confidence in our potential has reinforced just how much value our current and future product portfolio can deliver.

2. COMET: Elevating Risk Control and Assurance for Organisations

Our commitment to excellence is exemplified by the substantial investment made in COMET, our flagship product. Throughout this year, we've bolstered COMET's capabilities by introducing innovative features that bring genuinely new capabilities to how our clients control risk and assure their operations.  Our ability to achieve robust outcomes regardless of what we investigate or assure has been boosted by several development milestones, including the integration of Human and Organisational Performance (HOP), and the newly streamlined COMET Lite, delivering great investigative outcomes in as little as an hour!

3. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and COMET Signals: Shaping the Future of HSE

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been a focal point in how we’ve innovated in 2023. The continued evolution of COMET Signals, our AI-driven tool for HSE data analytics, marks a significant milestone. With the power to scan both structured and unstructured data, COMET Signals extracts invaluable insights, driving proactive decision-making and preventive actions. The convergence of AI and risk control is charting a new course for proactive safety insights that directly influence incident prevention. Learn more here.

4. Centerpoint ERP: Transforming Efficiency for Operations Teams

Recognising the pivotal role of technology in business operations, we've directed our focus towards Centerpoint ERP. The significant financial and strategic investment in this enterprise resource planning (ERP) system has been made to offer an easy-to-install ‘on time on budget’ solution that bridges the gap between spreadsheets and those big systems that invariably cost too much and never quite land as intended.

5. Building a Stellar Team

People are the beating heart of our business, and this year we've expanded our family with strategic hires. The addition of data scientists, software developers, sales and marketing professionals, and key leadership roles bring diverse expertise to the table. This investment in talent underscores our commitment to continued innovation, creativity, and excellence across all facets of our operations. Connect with our team via LinkedIn.

6. Global Impact, Local Expertise

One of our proudest achievements in 2023 is the continued expansion of our footprint across diverse industries and countries. From energy and rail to construction, water, and beyond, STC INSISO's solutions are making an impact globally. Our ability to adapt and tailor our offerings to specific industry needs positions us as a versatile partner in ensuring risk control and operational assurance for major accident hazard industries across the world.

Often accredited by the ECITB and IOSH, these programs cater for individuals at various career stages, providing modular learning in supervision, leadership, human factors, incident investigation, and behavioural safety. We’ve helped nurture talent in a range of industries in 2023 and look forward to continuing that trend in the New Year. Learn more about our training and development programmes.

8. Connecting with Industry Leaders

Throughout 2023, STC INSISO actively participated in and exhibited at multiple events across the UK. From Offshore Europe (OEUK) to the Railway Industry Association (RIA) Annual Conference, each event provided a platform to connect with industry leaders, share insights, and showcase our cutting-edge solutions.
