Metrics

MetricTargetSubgoal

  • Percentage of recommendations addressed by relevant project areas

    • intentionally does not measure “implementation” of recommendations due to the many factors that may impede implementation (e.g. timelines, funding, capacity, etc.)

    • track this metric with new tools currently being implemented in XSEDE, namely JIRA and Confluence. The team intends to upload evaluation reports to Confluence and copy recommendations to JIRA for tracking.
