Support for a member may start from a favorable assessment and encounter difficulties during execution. That is why the initial decision should include a verification path. Monitoring is used to determine whether the expected change is taking place.

I propose to identify intermediate results related to the cause of the problem. If the difficulty depends on the warehouse, stock levels and turnover may be relevant; if it concerns receipts, deadlines and delays must be observed. The volume of sales, by itself, may not describe the recovery.

The information requested should be proportionate. A plan that absorbs all the time of the member in reporting risks hindering the activity. At the same time, too vague data makes it difficult to verify how common resources are used.

The revision must be able to change the path: continue, correct or conclude the intervention. Workable conditions and instruments depend on the constraints applicable to the concrete situation. Here a management logic is proposed, without assuming a financing obligation. The quality of support also depends on the ability to recognize a plan in a timely manner that does not work, making decisions open to discussion based on up-to-date information.
