WHERE ARE WE EXPOSED?

Illustrative portfolio: 12 active bets · 3 decisions due · 2 commitments at risk · 4 assumptions nearing review · 5 shipped bets unevaluated.

SIGNAL → DECIDE → SHAPE

Enterprise Delegated Administration: customer friction → explicit onboarding displacement → bounded two-customer pilot.

COMMIT → BUILD

Yellow customer promise → identity and security conditions → one policy type with instrumentation and rollback.

PROVE → REPEAT

18% cycle-time improvement and 31% higher implementation effort → review the broken causal link and reallocate capacity.

ATTENTION NEEDED

Unresolved identity dependency; stale self-configuration assumption; missing evaluation decision.

DECISION COACH

Shipping has produced evidence, but the next investment choice is still open. Assign the review owner and make the capacity consequence explicit.
