Problem

Scenario

You've changed an engineering process and want to know whether it actually improved outcomes. You need a way to separate real improvement from normal week to week noise, and to look beyond a single headline metric.

Question

How do you measure whether a process improvement actually worked?

What to Measure

  • Primary outcome KPI, such as deployment lead time
  • Leading indicators, such as review turnaround time or CI duration
  • Lagging indicators, such as incident rate or rollback rate
  • Guardrails to catch quality or team health regressions
