Start with the outcome

Give managers a clearer place to start.

A number can look wrong for several reasons. Bring the evidence and the site team’s experience together before deciding what needs attention.

Management time

Where does reporting and chasing pull managers away from the service?

Continuity

How does the team know when a report is late or incomplete?

Follow-through

Who owns the next check when a result needs attention?

Follow the evidence in one example ↓
A clearer route to the next decision

Sales look lower. What should you check first?

Check the dates and coverage before drawing a conclusion about performance. Missing information is a possibility to test with the source owner.

Notice a difference: A site’s recorded sales appear lower than expected.; Check completeness: Establish whether the expected days and records arrived.; Bring in context: Verify the feed or explore what changed with the team.; Agree the next step: Name an owner, the next check, and a review point.
Agree definitions, data access, and the workflow with the people responsible for the service.
