Find out whether the dashboard can actually control anything.

A dashboard shows a signal. A management control connects that signal to a threshold, evidence, a decision, an owner, action, and verified follow-through.

Signal and threshold

The company knows what changed and why it requires attention.

The metric names the exact signal being reviewed.
The definition states the calculation, population, and period.
One system of record is authoritative and has a maintenance owner.
A specific threshold identifies when a decision or action is required.

Decision and action

Evidence reaches someone with authority and produces observable work.

The evidence required to interpret the signal is defined and traceable.
A named decision owner has authority to act.
The decision, date, and reason are recorded.
Each threshold leads to a specific observable action.

Ownership and follow-through

The loop closes and the control itself remains accountable.

A named action owner is accountable for completion.
The action has a due date tied to the business consequence.
Follow-through evidence proves the action occurred and shows whether it worked.
A review date tests the result and whether the control remains useful.
