What is ICAM?
ICAM stands for Incident Cause Analysis Method. It is a structured approach to incident investigation that looks beyond the immediate event to identify contributing factors, root causes and organisational failures.
​
An ICAM investigation may use tools such as timelines, 5 Whys analysis, incident trees and Ishikawa or fishbone diagrams to organise evidence and identify the factors that contributed to the incident.

Our Incident Investigation Process
GATHER EVIDENCE
We collect relevant information, documentation, witness accounts, site details and other evidence related to the incident.
ANALYSE EVIDENCE
Using tools such as timelines, 5 Whys analysis, incident trees and Ishikawa (fishbone) diagrams, we organise and analyse the evidence to understand what happened and why.
IDENTIFY CONTRIBUTING FACTORS
We identify immediate causes, local workplace factors and broader organisational conditions that contributed to the incident.
DEVELOP RECOMMENDATIONS
We develop corrective and preventive-control recommendations designed to address the causes identified during the investigation.
IMPLEMENT SOLUTIONS
We can support your team to apply recommended actions and connect findings back into your QHSE management systems.
REVIEW AND IMPROVE
We help you review outcomes, refine controls and identify whether further support, such as QHSE auditing or proactive HazID workshops, would strengthen future risk management.
Frequently asked questions
An external investigator can be useful when an incident is serious, sensitive, complex or likely to require independent review. External support can also help when internal teams need specialist capability or objective documentation.
No. A strong investigation focuses on facts, contributing factors and system improvements. The goal is to understand what happened and reduce the likelihood of a similar incident happening again.
