QUANTIFYING RESULTS
PRACTICE STATEMENT:
Results are quantified against a standardized risk
factor.
PRACTICE DESCRIPTION:
Results are quantified against a standardized risk
factor. This risk factor considers how much exposure to potential damage a
stakeholder has. Factors such as the number of kilometres of line installed or
the number of one-call notification tickets may determine the amount of risk
involved. For example, a risk factor may compare how many times damage to
underground facilities has occurred in a certain period of time versus the total
number of tickets issued.
