Written down processes, such as using a measuring cup and diluting acid, using a thermometer when you test water, etc.36:08 - Step 4: Purge and remove contaminants. Decide to remove non-living organics and phosphates from the water.38:54 - Step 5: Track it. Without documentation, it makes it harder to notice deviations from the baseline.41:46 - Benefits of standardization: Brand benefits43:39 - Benefits of standardization: Personnel substitutions are easier45:57 - Benefits of standardization: Problems will stand out sooner47:17 - Benefits of standardization: Collective intelligence47:58 - Benefits of standardization: Reduced employee turnover48:52 - Benefits of standardization: Better forecasting, which in turn allows for bulk purchasing discounts50:11 - Summary - Thank you for listening! ------------------------------------Connect with Orenda TechnologiesWebsite: https://www.orendatech.comBlog: https://blog.orendatech.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/OrendaTechnologiesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/orendatech/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/orendatechnologies/
