The FRAMalyse software has been designed and developed by Yiran Du and Niklas Grabbe in the working group of Complex Socio-technical Systems Modeling – Technical University of Munich, Chair of Ergonomics. FRAMalyse is developed by Matlab App Designer as a free Standalone Desktop version for Windows (10, onwards) environments. It is an open tool designed to solve practical problems that FRAM analysts encounter every day, such as facilitating the efficient and structured analysis and interpretation as well as communication of results to the management. It strengthens the computational capabilities of FRAM, which makes the FRAM more actionable for real-world purposes, particularly when facing large-scale systems. 

Our conference paper describing FRAMalyse is available here: https://rpsonline.com.sg/proceedings/esrel-sra-e2025/html/ESREL-SRA-E2025-P5512.html
