Initiative Health

Every initiative has a health badge that summarizes how its linked dev items are performing — at a glance, before you read any of them in detail. The badge is direction-aware: a strong positive impact and a strong negative impact pull the score in opposite directions, even if both are statistically significant.

How health is calculated

VEKTIS rolls up every linked dev item with a current impact score. Items still awaiting data — no measurements yet, or impact not yet computed — are counted separately and don’t pull the score in either direction.

Dev item state	How it contributes
Impact in target direction (positive)	Pulls score up — stronger impact pulls harder
Impact opposite target direction (negative)	Pulls score down — stronger impact pulls harder
Awaiting data	Counted in the breakdown but excluded from the score
No score yet (e.g., burn-in incomplete)	Counted as awaiting

What each color means

Label	Color	Score range	What it tells you
On Track	Green	High	Linked dev items are mostly showing positive impact in the right direction
Mixed	Slate	Middle	Results are split — some positive, some negative, some still awaiting data
Off Track	Red	Low	Linked dev items are mostly showing negative or no impact

Tip

The badge also shows how many dev items contributed to the score and how many are still awaiting data. A “Mixed” initiative with most items still awaiting data is a different situation than a “Mixed” initiative with all items scored — read the breakdown alongside the label.

Customer reach

Health tells you whether the linked work is going well. Customer reach tells you how many customers it’s touching. Alongside the health badge, an initiative shows a Customer reach tile that rolls up, across every linked dev item, how many distinct customers the initiative’s features have reached.

Reach is shown as a share of your active customer base — for example “120 of 400 active customers (30%) reached across 5 features.” “Active customers” means customers who’ve been active recently, so the percentage reflects your live base rather than every account you’ve ever had.

What you see	What it means
A high reach %	The initiative’s features are landing broadly across your customers
A low reach % with strong health	Working well, but only for the customers who’ve adopted it — room to drive wider adoption
A momentum note (e.g. “+18 customers in last 30 days”)	How reach has moved recently — whether adoption is still growing
“No features linked yet”	Link dev items to the initiative to start measuring reach

Note

Health and reach answer different questions, and you want both. A feature can be On Track (it works) while reaching only a sliver of customers, or reach nearly everyone while landing as Mixed. Reading them side by side tells you whether to keep improving the feature or focus on getting it in front of more people.

What to do at each level

You see	What to do
On Track with most items scored	Trust the signal — the initiative is delivering as intended
On Track with most items awaiting	Promising direction, but the signal is thin — keep measuring
Mixed	Open the initiative and read the dev items individually — the average hides the detail
Off Track with most items scored	Investigate — at least some dev items are moving the metric the wrong way
Off Track with most items awaiting	One or two negative items are dominating; let more data accumulate before acting
