Three proprietary engineering frameworks working together to support industrial recovery, insurance engineering, and business continuity.
An industrial incident is never just equipment damage. The same event simultaneously affects production, business continuity, insurance, capital expenditure, operational risk, recovery time, and financial performance — and every one of those outcomes is shaped by how the engineering response is handled.
Three frameworks, each governing a different part of the same engineering journey — displayed here as equal pillars, because none of the three is complete without the other two.
Incident → SLMF™: the moment something goes wrong, SLMF governs the immediate response — stabilizing the situation and preventing secondary damage before any technical determination is attempted.
SLMF™ → SRT-ARM™: once the asset is stable and preserved, SRT-ARM takes over the technical work — inspection, root-cause analysis, and the engineering execution of the recovery itself.
SRT-ARM™ → BURCE™: as SRT-ARM's assessment produces real technical evidence, BURCE builds the component-level cost estimate that evidence supports — never the other way around.
BURCE™ → Recovery Decision → Execution → Return to Operation: with both technical and cost evidence in hand, the recovery decision is made, executed, and validated — closing the loop back into SLMF's Business Continuity level.
| Framework | Purpose | Primary Users | Main Deliverables | Typical Timing | Business Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SLMF™ | Reduce Total Cost of Loss across the full incident lifecycle | Plant Managers, Factory Owners, Maintenance Engineers | Stabilization record, preservation plan, sequencing plan | Hour 0 through business restart | Preserves recoverability and shortens downtime |
| SRT-ARM™ | Execute a defensible technical recovery | Project Engineers, Maintenance Engineers | Inspection report, root-cause finding, commissioning record | Post-stabilization through handover | A validated, working asset with full documentation |
| BURCE™ | Build a defensible, component-level cost estimate | Loss Adjusters, Insurance Brokers, Plant Directors | Itemized cost build-up, commercial justification | Once technical evidence exists (SRT-ARM Level 4) | A cost figure that survives scrutiny from client, insurer, or auditor |
All three frameworks draw on the same underlying Engineering Knowledge System — they don't each maintain separate reference material.
The granular, step-by-step view — every stage tagged with which framework governs it.
SLMF, SRT-ARM, and BURCE are not three separate methodologies a client happens to encounter at different times. They are three coordinated parts of one Engineering Operating System — sharing the same evidence discipline, the same Knowledge System, and the same goal: technically defensible decisions, from the first hour of an incident to the return to full operation.
