![Page 3: Field Inspection Report Resolution - COGCC Home · report, put general comments in blue text while leaving actionable language red text Develop an FIR Resolution Process / Form (#2](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022041517/5e2c4a118f73680d9930fab3/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Goals of the Lean Event A team of Operators and COGCC Personnel were challenged to propose changes so that:
There is a standard, easy to understand and well documented Field Inspection and reporting process.
Information is communicated in a manner in which Operators can read a Field Inspection Report (FIR) and immediately have a clear understanding of what needs to be done next to resolve the issues.
Corrective Action (CA) dates are perceived as both fair and consistent.

Process Summary Over 5 days across 2 weeks, the team: • Mapped the current process • Recognized pain points and wastes • Documented 29 issues with the current inspection
and reporting process • Specified improvements for 21 issues in 7 categories
(Parking lot the others)
Within the 7 categories: • The team developed drafts of procedures, guidance,
and forms, where possible • The team created an implementation plan to
complete and follow-up on remaining items
![Page 6: Field Inspection Report Resolution - COGCC Home · report, put general comments in blue text while leaving actionable language red text Develop an FIR Resolution Process / Form (#2](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022041517/5e2c4a118f73680d9930fab3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Seven Recommendations Redesign the FIR (#1)
FIR is too long, info is hidden, apply consistent ratings
Bring information upfront in first page summary, shorten the
report, put general comments in blue text while leaving
actionable language red text
Develop an FIR Resolution Process / Form (#2 & 3)
Implement a process to address factual errors in the report
before the reports go public.
Allow for easier way to approve CAs
![Page 7: Field Inspection Report Resolution - COGCC Home · report, put general comments in blue text while leaving actionable language red text Develop an FIR Resolution Process / Form (#2](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022041517/5e2c4a118f73680d9930fab3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Seven Recommendations Develop a CA Matrix (#4)
Ensure greater consistency in how long an operator has to
address an issue.
Consistent language and rule citation
Clarify Internal FIR Guidance (#5)
Develop immediate operator notification standards (#6)
Develop Alternative Means of Inspection (#7)
