Formulating plan of action

The information from the farm visit and the intake interview are processed into a report. This report will be discussed with the farm owner and, if needed, adjusted.

We just described the current situation (as is), taking stock if you will. Now the goals can be set and just as important: communicated. What goals make sense, considering the current ‘as is’-situation. We need take make absolutely clear which course we are going to set out. These goals need to be integrated in a plan of action:

These goals need to be integrated in a plan of action:

  • Which technical results do we want to improve?
  • What numbers are we striving for?
  • What needs to be changed in order to achieve these goals?
  • What is needed (hardware/labour etc.) What do we need to change in our current working process?
  • Who is going to implement these changes?
  • Who does what exactly, and when?
  • What goals are to be achieved as a result of these changes, how does this translate into profit increase?
  • As all actions need to be time limited: when is the deadline?
