How HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study) Works in SolveRight

When you run a decision through SolveRight, HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study) is one of up to 155 frameworks that analyze your options simultaneously. The AI extractor identifies 4 key data points from your decision description, then the logic-based rubric computes a normalized 0-100 score for each option. This score is combined with results from other frameworks to produce your overall ranking, with contradiction detection highlighting where HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study)disagrees with other methodologies.

HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study) — Frequently Asked Questions

What is HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study)?+
Analyzes process design deviations using guide words applied to each process parameter. In SolveRight, HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study) uses a logic-based rubric to compute a normalized 0–100 score for each option.
When should I use HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study)?+
