Deployment rework rate

Target operating model — recommended contracts, not installed collection. All owner and cadence entries below are proposals to confirm before the pilot, not assigned responsibilities or approved schedules.

Prototype calculation — no live telemetry. The synthetic example calculates this metric; it has no network collectors.

Unplanned production deployment effects triggered by a production incident as a share of deployment effects.

Eligible populationProduction deployment effects in window with immutable planned/unplanned classification and incident linkage.
ExclusionsNonproduction, no-effect retries and duplicates; do not exclude unclassified changes silently.

Missing evidenceUnknown classification stays denominator; observed numerator is lower bound until reconciliation; show classification coverage.
Gaming and limitsCall hotfixes planned; freeze reason and independently reconcile incident/deployment links. Descriptive signal, not causal AI productivity attribution. Source completeness, task mix and sampling limit inference; report uncertainty. Distinct from failure rate: one failed deployment can lead to multiple separate rework deployments.

Read the shared collection and safeguards before collecting data; see the synthetic example and limits.
