Government / Politics | | English term or phrase: do the full service of proactivity | Hello everyone,
A team such as XXXX can be asked to do the full service of proactivity from start to finish or can fit in to a particular part of the process to deliver particular skills. In this respect, their training in Special Investigation Techniques , courtesy of the bi-lateral support made them ideal for intelligence development and pursuing the interdiction but not the initial identification of geographic or human intelligence targets.
Thank you. |

| | provide a fully proactive service | Explanation:
I think that the source phrase is very poor English, starting with the use of the verb "to do". You don't do a service you perform or provide or execute it. What exactly is a "service of proactivity"? Proactivity is acting in anticipation of an event or situation. It involves a degree of guesswork and risk. However, it is difficult to imagine a service that is only proactive and that doesn't follow through. So proactivity is only part of any service provision. |
