Achievements within a project
Obtaining high quality material
Maintaining colony fitness
Importance of establishment

The accumulated achievements or outcomes during a project will affect whether success or failure is the end result of a Biological Control project. The most important aspects in this process include the quality of agent material originally obtained, the maintenance of colony fitness and reproductive potential, and the attention given to establishment of newly released agents.
