Where is the starting point for a DR?

The starting point for a Data Review (DR) is indeed you, the technician. This emphasizes the importance of the individual's understanding, skills, and knowledge in initiating the process. As a technician, your background and familiarity with the equipment and its operations allow you to accurately assess the situation and determine the necessary steps to take.

While other sources like manuals or previous experiences may provide valuable information and context, the individual's intuition, judgment, and expertise play a critical role in recognizing when a DR is needed and what direction to pursue. This personal involvement is crucial because it bases the DR on firsthand observations and analyses, ensuring a tailored approach that reflects the specific nuances of the situation at hand.
