green is bright red

Step by step would appear to be the best way. Indicators can point in the right direction, but they are not foolproof. Owners have been known to neglect their property. Incidents have occurred even though all the KPIs were green. You might then ask yourself whether you were monitoring the right indicators, or whether it might be time to worry about others. An owner can also lose his fresh or objective outlook, or even fall into complacency. How important this can be is reiterated every time we have an audit performed. This is why you should never take a step too quickly where ‘ownership’ is concerned.
