A focus on utilizing data: –Embedding measurability and observability throughout plan A focus on monitoring our processes: –Determining protocols and timelines for reporting progress towards goals that also serve to monitor consistency of implementation and compliance. A focus on closing gaps: – Developing a data cycle for reporting progress towards goals that is disaggregated by building and subgroup.
