Tanner evaluates operating conditions before pressure turns into rework, delay, audit exposure, customer impact, or management surprise.
Ownership, decision rights, escalation paths, standards, and policy boundaries. Weak clarity creates stalled decisions, duplicated approval paths, and informal judgment calls.
The degree to which procedures, workflows, systems, handoffs, and field conditions match each other. Weak coherence produces different execution by site, shift, or supervisor.
The amount of change the business is absorbing across roles, systems, priorities, sites, vendors, or regulatory requirements. High load increases shortcuts and missed handoffs.
The quality of proof available to show what happened, who acted, what changed, and what was reviewed. Weak evidence turns review into reconstruction.
The cost of instability: rework, delay, findings, incidents, customer impact, regulatory exposure, revenue leakage, or harm.
