How to interpret this report

At the end of each PI, during the program retrospective, this report should be reviewed to determine how teams are progressing as it relates to the previous reporting period. This report will assist in future workload commitments by identifying highly predictable teams and identify negative trends early to allow for adjustments to be made to greatly improve the chance of delivering on commitments.
