Do you know the book Secrets of a Successful Organizer, published by #LaborNotes? Lots of useful stuff, very much the kind of thing I think you would endorse (me too). One weakness of the approach, though, is a tendency toward instrumental organizing - how do I get these people to do what I want?
I wonder, though, what you make of the text cited in the original post: https://geo.coop/articles/how-create-solidarity-enterprise? Seems plenty concrete to me, despite the lack of databases.

After decades of reform efforts and dedicated work by successive generations of rank-and-file reformers like Mike Parker, Jerry Tucker, Wendy Thompson, Selwyn Rogers, Lew Moye, Caroline Lund, and many, many, others, the slate backed by #UniteAllWorkersForDemocracy is poised to take control of the #UAW.
Lots of new challenges await (what does the dog do when it catches the car?) but this is huge.
