What can you do on this screen?
On the Standards screen, you can create and manage the standards that are used for the skills in the task analysis in LEAD.
Figure 337: Library > Standards
For each standard, you can:
•Add a 
standard to the existing list by clicking on + New.
•Export 
a spreadsheet listing all standards entries with all the details in LEAD for each entry.
•Select a standard and then:
oView 
the standard information.
oView and then Approve the standard.
oEdit 
the standard information.
oSelect Show History 
to review the changes made to the standard, including the user name and date/time of saved changes, and revert to an earlier saved revision.
oDelete 
the standard, if has not been cited in the task analysis of any initiative. Once you've selected OK to the confirmation message, an Undo button displays on the bottom left of the screen that allows you to revert the deletion.
Finding Standards
If you can't find the standard you're looking for, enter a search term in the Find: field and select Search. The table will list all standards that contain your search term on the screen.
You can click on the column headers of each table to sort the standards by that column. Clicking on a column header again will reverse the sort. Clicking on the column header a third time will remove the sort. Small arrows in the column header let you know which way the data is currently sorted.
After selecting  Figure 338: Library > Standard Detail Screen
•To create a new standard, select Save once you've entered all the information. Likewise, to keep the edits you've made to an existing standard, select Save. This will return you to the list of standards. •If you do not want to keep the edits or create a new standard, just select Cancel to close the pop-up. •If you're reviewing a standard, you can select Edit to make changes, select Approve to approve the standard, or you can close the pop-up window by selecting the X in the top right of the pop-up. Title The Title or text of the standard. Standards are used in the task analysis for tasks, subtasks, and steps (aka skills) to state how well the skill must be performed when it is performed. Standards describe the minimal acceptable level of performance to include accuracy, speed, quantity, and quality. Standards should be objective, observable, measurable, and should relate to the skill. The standard defines an acceptable product, an acceptable process, or both. The standard should be defined as a product if the product is observable and can be inspected; the process by which the product was created cannot be easily observed; and the process is unimportant compared to the product. Product-based standards generally describe the product in terms of quantity (how many products in a period of time), accuracy, tolerances, completeness, format, number of errors, and/or clarity. The standard should be defined as a process, if the performance of the skills does not result in an observable product; and failure to use the correct process could result in damage to equipment or endanger personnel. Process-based standards generally describe the process in terms of sequence, completeness, accuracy, and speed of performance. When a standard combines both product and process, both the end result (the product) and how it was created are important. For example, delivering mail to a residence is a product standard, but if the delivery person destroys every other mailbox during the delivery process, the product standard alone would not be enough. Instead a standard for delivering mail could be: 'to every residence receiving mail without incident'. Status The current Status of the library item. Once the initiative that uses the library item is approved, then the library item is also approved. You can also approve a library item manually by viewing the item and then selecting Approve on the screen. You cannot approve a library item from the Edit screen. |
No The number (No) column provides a sequential count of the entries, which is not attached to the entries themselves. Title The Title or text of the standard.
