Suggested Guidelines for Analyzing Survey Results 1. Study the ratings by component and item. 2. Read the comments for additional insight. 3. Use other data sources to verify areas of strength and areas needing improvement. 4. Refer to the narratives and tables in the Plan to identify actions that will facilitate improvement. 5. Develop implementation steps for the actions. 6. Ensure implementation steps are applied.
