Purposedifferent
In critical processes, it is not enough to plan only for the normal case. Failure Scenario Analysis looks at the path into failure and shows which failures, chains, and control gaps cause the most damage.It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped.
