I would have thought all that was needed would have been a chat with the chief pilot and a bit of ICUS for the pilot involved.
From the report:

The pilot reported that she touched down on the runway abeam the taxiway which normally gives her enough runway length to stop the aircraft... The pilot reported that the approach and landing appeared normal....The pilot reported that she used the position of the taxiway along the runway as her decision point as to whether she was going to conduct a go-around. As everything felt normal at that stage, she did not conduct a go-around....
The 'taxiway' is halfway down the runway. I would have thought that the operation whose pilot believes a landing half way down a 637m strip is normal, has issues with its training and supervision..
