A 10-minute assessment for one task
Is your standard field-ready?
Most organizations already have procedures, training, and experienced people. The question is whether the standard is easy to understand, access, and apply when the work is actually happening.
Pick one task
Start with one task and assess where the biggest opportunities may be. Choose a task that is high frequency, high consequence, showing repeated safety issues, creating rework, performed differently from crew to crew, dependent on tribal knowledge, or often done by newer workers.
Task
1Define it 0 of 5
Is the expected way to perform the work clear?
Opportunity I noticed
2Make it usable 0 of 5
Can the worker quickly get what they need?
Opportunity I noticed
3Define “done right” 0 of 4
Does the standard make successful execution clear?
Opportunity I noticed
4Reinforce it 0 of 5
Does the standard actually show up in the work?
Opportunity I noticed
The crew test
Ask three people who regularly perform the task: “Walk me through the right way to do this job.” Would you hear roughly the same answer?
If the answer is “No,” you may have a standardization opportunity.
Your next step
Don’t start by rebuilding your entire procedure library. Choose one gap from this assessment and one action you can take in the next 30 days.

Who needs to be involved
When we’ll revisit it
Ready people. Reliable work.
A field-ready standard helps make what good looks like easier to understand, access, reinforce, and repeat where the work happens.
