How we describe and approach the issues we need to solve can affect how we react to them. We know we’re supposed to be solving for root causes. But are we, instead, really just addressing symptoms? Are we celebrating the quick fix and then moving on without addressing the root of our issue?

Objectives are goalposts of what it is we’re trying to accomplish. Though they’re only a part of planning a project, if we don’t have well-defined and clear objectives, it could lead to us not having the stellar project results we want. Our objective should be a SMART ACORN. We review these two, complementing acronyms as ways to check that we’re setting up our project for success.
Are we doing a disservice when talking about asset criticality to include anything other than the consequence? In this week’s podcast, we welcome Paul Daoust from SCIO Asset Management to discuss how we always use asset criticality with another variable, and because of this, the use of likelihood of failure in the asset criticality process could be added work for very little value.
