The range and its warningsThe gap at day zero. Time to act.
The gap between the promise and what the team can deliver shows at day zero. The people with the mandate hear before the deadline.

How it works,step by step.
Day zero
Earliest, likely and latest: 10.91, 12.63 and 15.00 weeks. Week 12 reads: achievable, but needs better than this team's own average.
Step 1 / 4
What it does
- Four states, in words: Ahead; On track, with downside risk; Achievable, but needs better than this team's own average; MISSED.
- A commitment warning at day zero to both parties.
- Any figure can be opened to what it was built from.
- It does not wait for a status to turn red late in the delivery.
Who uses it
- The planner
- The delivery lead
- The roles with the mandate
- The sponsor
- Both parties, for a commitment warning
What it never does
- Give a probability, or a single line.
- Show a colour alone. A state always carries its word and a shape.
- Show a grade on a running delivery. The grade comes at close.
- Decide. People decide; Retival records the decision and its evidence.
