Before Action Review

A Before Action Review is a method for a team starting out on a piece of work to assess what knowledge they already have. This approach may be undertaken during the Discover Stage of the improvement journey.

A Before Action Review helps a team state their intention just before commencing the project and helps to identify potential challenges and risks by drawing on lessons learned from past experiences.

Benefits to the approach are encouraging people to share learning with others and avoiding reinventing the wheel.
