MediumKPIsLeading IndicatorsDiagnosis

Scenario

You are the engineering manager for a validation pipeline used to approve hardware test runs before release. A recent alert showed 14 failed validations out of 220 runs this week, up from 3 out of 210 last week. The failures were concentrated in one lab and appeared after a firmware update, but the team is not sure whether this is a one-off issue or the start of a systemic problem.
