The grant requires us to “show immediate and measurable” progress. What exactly does that mean?
A. Immediate and measurable progress means that a plan must be in place so that lives can be saved starting with day one. It simply won’t work to figure that the first 3 weeks or even 3 days of the project can be used to gear up to plan, schedule or figure out strategies. The number of lives that must be saved, the number of surgeries that must be performed are relentless and need to be worked on every day in order to meet the target goals from the very beginning.
