I believe case-based reasoning (CBR) system has lots of potential in improving risk assessment and contingency planning in organisations. I have seen quite a few safety document management systems in the market, but they are not very strong in ensuring proper knowledge management. SafetyN8 has an interesting blog on safety and health products. Do you have any operations in Australia or Asia? Are you guys into knowledge management? Thanks for the comment.

I don't think this would be referral database for use in the heat of the moment. More effectively it could be used to identify say the top say 3 - 5 incident scenarios where a contingency plan needs to be known, trained, broadcast throughout the company and utilized. I think a comprehensive plan for all relative incidents is probably good from a legal perspective.
