Do: Test theories through fact finding or data gathering. This may take the form of <br /> surveys of the yard staff, focus groups, or other data gathering methods. <br /> 3. Check: Check test results. Bring results of fact finding back to the committee. <br /> 4. Act: Acton test results. Make a decision about what a possible solution might be. <br /> <br />
