I stand by my use of triggers to determine the level of action to be taken.
Equipment does go down from time-to-time and doing a CAR every single time would bottleneck the process and drown the organization in paperwork.
Analyzing the data can allow for smart and meaningful triggers to be established.
So, perhaps, after analyzing the data, the triggers could be:
- Delays < 2 minutes = recorded in system, no action required.
- Delays 2-60 minutes = correction
- Delays > 60 minutes = corrective action
This allows your team to focus their resources on the larger problems. And then, when you analyze the data again during your planning and strategy process, you will hopefully see that the triggers can be tightened and or focused on specific causes of delays.
