The set of rules is processable to assign an order and/or a corrective action to selected personnel in a respective team, based, at least in part, on the nature of the cause impeding order progress. A processing action allows processing the gathered data in the database relative to the rulebase for performing the assignment of the order and/or corrective action to the selected personnel in the event lack of order progress is determined.
