Which of the following is a basic strategy for minimizing the opportunity for error in a process?

a) Reducing reliance on technology

b) Standardizing how the process is completed

c) Trying harder to perform the process correctly

d) A and C

Answer: b) Standardizing how the process is completed

Explanation:

Occurrence of error in a process can be due to several reason like human error, equipmental error, qualitative error etc. It includes internal as well as external factor. To eliminate the occurrence of fault in process, it is better to follow standard and systematic working in uniform way so that any kind of manipulation and modification does not lead to error.

Other options are not appropriate because trying harder will not correct chances of fault rather it will only waste the efforts. Not depending on technology is also not the solution to gain accuracy in process. Thus, the correct option is option (b).
