- ▌ Team · clearmeasurelabsAssesses team health (forming/storming/norming/performing) and recommends where to invest next -- Pillar 5 of The Five Pillars. Use when standing up a new team, after a reorg/departure/turnover, or as a recurring quarterly team-health check.
- ▌ Speed · clearmeasurelabsAnalyzes work-item flow, decomposition, and throughput -- Pillar 4 of The Five Pillars. Use for sprint or backlog reviews, or when leadership asks "when will this be done" and the team is still estimating instead of forecasting. Only meaningful once Clarity, Quality, and Stability are in reasonable shape.
- ▌ Clarity · clearmeasurelabsChecks whether a project, feature, or team is running blind or running with clarity -- Pillar 1 of The Five Pillars (vision, strategy, measurement). Use when kicking off a project, when a team can't agree on why a feature matters, before writing a strategy doc, or as a quarterly health check.
- ▌ Quality · clearmeasurelabsReviews code, pull requests, or a defect backlog for escaped-defect risk -- Pillar 2 of The Five Pillars. Use when reviewing a PR or batch of recently merged PRs, after a production defect to find the process gap, or when setting up quality gates for a new team or repo.
- ▌ Decompose · clearmeasurelabsBreaks one epic or feature into day-sized (or smaller) work items -- a fast-path companion to Pillar 4 (Increase Speed). Use when planning a single feature or epic, independent of running a full speed/throughput analysis.
- ▌ Scorecard · clearmeasurelabsRuns all five pillar checks (clarity, quality, stability, speed, team) against the same project and produces one combined Red/Yellow/Green leadership scorecard with trend vs. the prior run. Use for monthly/quarterly project health reviews, before a client or executive check-in, or when taking over an unfamiliar or struggling project.
- ▌ Stability · clearmeasurelabsAudits production readiness and incident-response process -- Pillar 3 of The Five Pillars. Use before a major release or migration, after a production incident as part of the retrospective, or when evaluating whether a team is ready to increase deployment frequency.
- ▌ Onboarding · clearmeasurelabsBuilds a new-hire ramp-up checklist and identifies who is set up to fail by circumstance rather than ability -- a fast-path companion to Pillar 5 (Optimize the Team). Use when a new hire joins or is about to join, independent of running a full team-health check.
- ▌ Postmortem · clearmeasurelabsWrites a single-incident postmortem/retrospective right after a production incident -- a fast-path companion to Pillar 3 (Achieve Stability). Use immediately after an incident is resolved, while details are still fresh, instead of waiting for a full stability audit.
- ▌ Values Check · clearmeasurelabsPressure-tests a decision, plan, or piece of client-facing work against Clear Measure's core values before you commit to it. Use before finalizing a client proposal, staffing decision, or scope change, when a decision "feels off," or when onboarding a new hire to how decisions get made.
