Part 1: Navigating the Shark Bite Problem with the Tutis System


In the ever-evolving landscape of modern industry, organisations often face complex challenges that can, not only threaten productivity, but can also jeopardise the very foundation of effective and safe operation. Such problem that plagues many industries is: large, serious, and potentially… Devastating. We call this, the “Shark Bite Problem”

Understanding the Shark Bite Problem
The Shark Bite Problem encompasses several critical aspects that directly impact an organisation’s ability to function efficiently and safely:

  • Incomplete Teams and Downtime: One facet of this problem is the formation of incomplete teams. When work teams are not adequately staffed or lack the necessary skills, it becomes impossible to commence work safely and on time. This results in costly downtime, which can significantly affect an organisation’s bottom line.
  • Inadequate Competencies and Output: Another aspect of the Shark Bite Problem revolves around worker competencies. When employees lack the required skills or possess inadequate skills, they are unable to deliver high productivity. This not only affects the quality and efficiency of work but also leads to financial losses.

It’s evident that addressing these issues is of paramount importance for organisations striving to remain competitive and sustainable in the face of rapidly evolving job roles and skill requirements.
