Monitor a critical limit and act on a deviation
Who decides what happens to the product or process affected by a deviation?
The designated specialist works from log and points. The record makes release / rework / discard / hold pending test and basis in the plan clear to the next person.

Our delivery approach
Prepare the first useful playbook
Start with the materials and people you already have. We help make the setup choices explicit before your team uses the method.
- 01
Select the working material
Choose log and points from the resources your team uses.
What we prepare togetherThe relevant resources are available for the tasks that use them.
- 02
Agree the responsibilities
Confirm assigned team member, designated specialist and team lead for this method, then choose the people eligible to receive its work.
What we prepare togetherThe method names who contributes, reviews and receives the next work.
- 03
Walk through the selected route
Walk through these conditional steps: “Correct immediately and contain”; “Decide the disposition of the affected product or process”.
What we prepare togetherYour team sees the response and the resulting next step before extending the method.

Your questions
Prepare the method for your team
What stays with the recorded response?
The response for this occurrence retains release / rework / discard / hold pending test, basis in the plan and decided by. It belongs to the work being reviewed, rather than replacing a different occurrence's record.
Which materials do we need to bring?
Bring log and points. We use those choices to prepare the working context, then check that each task opens the material it needs.
How do the conditional steps become part of the method?
The conditional route is used when the reading is outside the critical limit. Select the variant or respond to the recorded condition before treating that step as required.
What is the outcome for the wider workflow?
Readings recorded on cadence inside the limit, or the deviation corrected, the affected product or process dispositioned by the qualified person, and the period's records verified.
