- Write the questions that you have about the problem in the first
column. For example: How many are there? When does it occur? Where does it occur? Who is most affected? How much time does it take?
- Write the description of the indicator in the second column: for
example, proportion of..., time of..., percentage of..., rate of....
- Write the formula of the indicator (numerator divided by denominator, or number of events) and its expression in the third column.
- In the fourth and fifth columns, indicate the sources for obtaining the necessary data for the numerator and denominator. The sources may include daily reports, files, surveys, observations, interviews, etc.
- Eventually, the standard for comparison will be put in the sixth column.
