Where to add Proactive Processes

"Proactivity is a process that can be applied to any set of actions through anticipating, planning, and striving to have an impact." ​

To help meet your quality, safety, environmental, and regulatory compliance objectives being proactive is essential and best done by incorporating feed-forward processes between functions as well as implementing learn / improve cycles in your feed-back path.

These become proactive mechanisms when used to achieve goal-directed objectives where progress is made over time by advancing process capabilities not by conformance to prescriptive requirements.
