Run on gut feel more than data

The escalation board  — red or green · See it → Trace it → Adopt it → Retain it

An escalation exits the board only when RETAIN verifies the fix held — ESC-03 just earned its exit.

The mirror

Line 4: guessed “about 80.” Measured: 54.
And the Plant Score went up when it was measured — the score rewards seeing, not pretty results.

How the number is built

Score = Σ(component × weight) ÷ Σweights, scored components only.
This plant: 4,155 ÷ 95 = 43.7 → 44. Unmeasured leaves the math — never scored 0.

80+ dialed in 60–79 leaking 40–59 gut feel <40 exposed

Every value is tagged with how we know it (measured · assessed · self-reported). Rubrics own the numbers — nothing is AI-invented. Findings indict the process, never the people. Your data never leaves your building: we keep derived scores and finding titles only. Ridgeline Instruments is fictional; every number recomputes by hand.
