Executive Dashboard

Reports

Overview

The Executive tab is the first tab on the Analytics page. It gives leadership and project managers a single-screen summary of delivery health — a composite health score, velocity trend, and a per-sprint heatmap that flags problems across four dimensions at once.

Executive Dashboard — health score gauge, velocity trend, and sprint health matrix

KPI cards

Seven summary cards sit at the top of the tab, giving an instant headline view of the project.

CardWhat it shows
Avg VelocityAverage story points delivered (accepted) per sprint over the analysed period.
Commit ReliabilityPercentage of committed story points actually delivered on time, averaged across sprints.
Scope CreepAverage percentage of unplanned work injected into sprints. Lower is better.
Open DefectsTotal unresolved defects in the product backlog.
Total StoriesTotal user stories in the product backlog.
Sprint CountNumber of sprints included in the analysis.
Sprints AnalysedSprints that have completed work and are included in velocity calculations.

Project Health Score

The gauge chart shows a composite score from 0–100 calculated from five weighted components. A letter grade (A–D) and label (Excellent / Good / Fair / Needs Attention) appear below the gauge.

ComponentWeightHow it is calculated
Velocity20%Up → 100, Stable → 75, Down → 40.
Throughput20%Linear regression on accepted points per sprint.
Commitment25%Accepted ÷ Committed × 100. Capped at 100.

Velocity Trend — Committed vs Delivered

A grouped bar chart showing committed points (light blue) and delivered/accepted points (blue) per sprint, with a dashed orange trend line calculated by linear regression. A rising trend line means the team is accelerating; a falling line means delivery is slowing.

Sprint Health Matrix

A heatmap table that scores every sprint across four metrics. Each cell is colour-coded: green = healthy, amber = watch, red = at risk.

Troubleshooting

The Project Health Score gauge is empty

The score requires at least one sprint with committed and accepted points. Create and close a sprint to generate the first score.

The Velocity Trend chart shows only one bar

Velocity data requires multiple closed sprints. The chart will build up as more sprints are completed.

The health grade shows D / Needs Attention but the team feels productive

Check the score breakdown components. A low Quality score (many defects per point) or low Commitment score (significant undelivered scope) often drags the grade down even when raw velocity looks healthy.

The Sprint Health Matrix shows red for all sprints

Each cell is relative to the team's own averages. If the team is consistently below the thresholds (< 80% commit rate, > 20% scope creep), all cells will be red. Use the detail to identify which specific metric to improve.
