The same file stalls in the same place every week. Prelim review waits on one person. A demand is missing at doc prep. Funding depends on knowledge that never made it into the procedure.
Book an operating reviewWhat we actually do
Order entry → title search → prelim review → curative → doc prep → signing → funding → recording → policy issuance → post-close audit. Mark the responsible party and the handoff evidence at each stage, including steps owned by title or another provider.
Active files, expected closes, transaction mix, officer load, and assistant coverage. Separate the work already in progress from the orders still arriving.
The stalled item, its age, its owner, its next action, and the decision needed to clear it. One register that can be reviewed without a round of status calls.
A short queue review, escalation rules, role coverage, and written handoffs for absence or turnover.
Operating measure
| Operating measure | What we track |
|---|---|
| Order-to-close cycle time | Median elapsed days for a defined cohort, with delayed and cancelled files visible separately. |
| Stage aging | Open files by current stage, age, blocker, and responsible party. |
| Officer capacity | Active workload and expected closes alongside assistant coverage and transaction mix. |
Measures are agreed from your baseline. These are evaluation criteria, not promised results.

Illustrative sequence. Scope and timing depend on the office, access, and the issue.
Start with the operating facts
Bring the stalled handoff, the margin question, or the control that keeps you up. We’ll put the next steps in order.
