Stepping outside the sequential logic of going through the steps of your
analysis will likely result in a loss of focus and consume additional time.
An ideal analysis shows a graph that rises from the lower left to
the upper right because you worked through the requirements of each
step before moving into the next one.
This critical success factor measures the alternations between steps.
The optimal and necessary changes from step one, Symptoms, to
step four, Actions are three.
Fluctuations in your approach will result in a graph where you
can identify a zig-zag pattern - illustrating where you left the
path and what step you deviated to.
Review your approach and, for each zig-zag occurring, understand what
you did and why it may constitute a deviation from your analysis.
