Summarize Internal Control– Any break from the norm should be investigated
– Remember the “smell test”
– Your rank can tell you a lot
– Any ratio that leaves you at one end of the scale or the other is one you might want to focus on.

SWOT– Strengths: Areas that are identified as strengths need to be
communicated to the Board and membership. Co-ops do not “brag” enough (reliability, cost, rates)
– Weaknesses: Often items that are partly outside your control. Need to be analyzed as a management team and strategies developed for improvement
– Opportunities: Areas where management thinks improvement can be made inside a strategic window
– Threats: Identify areas that might be subject to negative change (power costs, labor)
