- Suggest metrics for tracking the progress.

Implementing Multiple Stakeholder Process
Introduction
Public advocacies are individuals or groups tasked with the responsibility of
enforcing the implementation of policy. The usually ensure that consumers or clients
of products and services are well represented in the market and are not exploited. The
groups normally work as private, or government bodies and they can also be classified
into different forms depending on the area they are interested in. For instance, we
have the lobbyist who advocates in political forums and environments (Dinsmore &
Cabanis-Brewin, 2011). Patient’s advocates usually advocate for patients’ rights to
ensure they get quality services and protected. The groups can assist in designing
legislations and even filing cases in court for companies defaulting customers
policies.
