Gap Analysis. The gap analysis aimed to identify the populations with significant deficiencies in their monitoring to estimate their population sizes and/or trends reliably. It builds on a number of information sources including the following: • BirdLife International’s country checklists which can be accessed through the Data table and detailed info tabs of the species factsheets on the Data Zone of BirdLife International; • BirdLife International’s species range maps6; • The population boundaries maintained by Wetlands International and available through the Critical Sites Network Tool 2.0;
Gap Analysis. A GAP analysis is a tool in business and economics that is used to achieve certain goals. In this analysis the workers compare the company’s actual performance with the potential performance. The main questions that need to be answered and compared before performing a gap analysis are: Where are we now? This is the descriptive analysis where we can see how it is today. Where do we want to be? This is the normative analysis where we explain how the potential performance is supposed to be after what we have observed. The main question to solve the gap analysis is: How to get there? Here we have to explain how to delete the gap between the descriptive and the normative analysis. (Ehow website, 2011) Figure 29 GAP analysis (Marketing teacher website, 2011) As shown in Figure 29, the goal of a GAP analysis is to find the GAP between the optimized allocation and the current level of allocation. When the company has found this GAP, their goal is to close this by using different strategies and procedures (Digoo website, 2011). The quality of the analysis is best if you involve staff from as many areas as possible in the company, so that multiple perspectives will appear. This helps the company to get an insight in which areas that can be improved. The basis for the analysis work is interviews with employees. These interviews are tailored to each individual employee and their responsibilities and knowledge area, so that the analysis will have a result where most of the areas are involved. These results from the analysis are a good basis for the management to do good decisions, both on short and long term decisions (Det norske veritas Website, 2011).
Gap Analysis. The Consultant will review and assess existing Port Authority processes and policies in place relating to safety by meeting with appropriate Port Authority staff. Documents will be reviewed and interviews will be conducted to collect vital information. The gap analysis will include the following: Policy and Statement Policy Objectives Staff and Stakeholder Roles & Responsibilities Safety Reporting Program Management Reporting and Frequency Document Controls and Retention Data Collection and Hazard Analysis Safety Promotion Program Existing Training (including initial and refresher) Program and Tracking Existing Safety Programs and Policies Process for periodic review and revision This task will be documented in a summary report and will be essential in establishing an accurate baseline for the OH&S Management System. This review will then compare results with OSHA regulatory compliance and industry best practices.

Gap Analysis. The PCG Team will perform research to identify and document gaps in the current processes where there is a desire to automate/improve the process in the future.
Gap Analysis. The Qualtrics platform provides a single data collection system and is used by various large school districts across the country including Orange County, FL, Chicago Public Schools, and Austin Independent School District, as well as postsecondary institutions such as University of North Florida. The application continues to stay current on strategies that assist the end user in reaching the stakeholder. Distribution methods included in the platform include reusable web links, individual web links, text message invitations, email distribution, and social media distributions. The variety of distribution methods, as well as having no limitations for the amount of distributions performed within a time period for either the license or the individual user, allows for an increase of the audience base and a higher rate of responses. This platform also allows for a mixed used of data collection, such as professional development evaluations, advanced heat mapping capabilities, and online forms with signature capabilities. All data collection is also tested with advanced mobile device responsiveness, allowing the user to access the tool from a mobile device.
Gap Analysis. Assess demand for SWM services The Consultant shall, inter alia: Verify existing data on catchment area, number of households and customers covered by the SWM services in the region and verify the non-household contribution to municipal solid waste generation. In addition, the consultant shall cross-check the current MSW collection coverage rates and verify current quantities of MSW generated. Besides MSW, the consultant shall revise data on quantities of construction and demolition waste, medical and any other hazardous waste. Any potential biodegradable waste streams such as sludge, agricultural waste, market waste, food processing industry, tourism and hospitality sector should also be estimated/presented. The consultant shall also revise and present data on MSW composition. This analysis shall also include information on recyclables, organic waste and combustible fractions.
Gap Analysis. Current SWM practices Based on available data, the Consultant shall verify, among others, the following information: Waste collection. Assess current quantities of MSW collected by the formal waste management system (for all waste streams including construction and demolition waste and other hazardous waste). Describe the collection systems in place for different waste generators and waste types. Other disposal practices. Estimate other waste disposal practices for all waste streams (illegal disposal (dumping), backyard burning, home composting, animal feeding, informal sector waste picking at the level of waste generators, etc.) predominant in the region as these practices have impact on waste generation rates. Source separation. Describe existing (and/or past) experience with waste separation at the source (household and businesses/institutions/industries/tourism and hospitality), relevant regulatory requirements and targets as well as enforcement standards. Under adjustment with Task 3.3.5, to describe the market for separated materials (types, quantities, achievable prices (and the associated qualities)) and potential off-takers (buyers) and their location and demands (quantities and qualities) for recyclables and key players.
Gap Analysis. Based upon requirements provided by Customer and Licensee and determined by hCentive’s requirement analysis (including performance specifications), hCentive has conducted and completed a gap analysis to identify any gaps between the BASE Software and Licensee’s requirements. The objectives and Services described in Statement of Work No. 1 under the Professional Services Agreement are based upon this gap analysis and set forth all Professional Services that will be required in order for such Software, following implementation of the Software and the hCentive Solution in accordance with such Statement of Work and installation in the Recommended Operating Environment, to operate in accordance with Licensee’s requirements, including applicable performance specifications.
Gap Analysis. The Consultant will analyze the comprehensive inventory of planned networks and projects identified in previous planning efforts based on their alignment with Sustainable Transportation Plan goals and objectives to reveal any gaps where existing plans and projects do not address priority needs and goals. Based on the priorities expressed by the community during Phase 1 engagement and solidified in the evaluation framework (Task 3.2), the Consultant will work the PTAT to determine supplementary analyses necessary to identify projects to fill gaps and address plan goals. Supplementary analyses could include approximately three (3) of the following (up to a not-to-exceed budget amount as indicated in the attached budget): Equity analysis to understand where low-income populations, youth and older adults, and communities of color may experience mobility barriers or disproportionate burden Systemic safety analysis: collision patterns and analysis of roadway factors commonly present in collisions involving people walking and bicycling Analysis of travel patterns and commute trips by mode Travel demand index based on current and future land use analysis First/last mile connections to transit Transit ridership, travel sheds, and new mobility opportunities Bicycle level of traffic stress, pedestrian level of comfort
