Success Metrics

LMU/COICP Example

Success Metrics Example

Define how LMU/COICP will recognize business value, operational improvement, engineering readiness, trustworthiness, adoption, governance discipline, educational usefulness, and failure signals.

ES-101 Success Metrics Evidence Targets

Example purpose

This artifact defines what success should mean before requirements are written.

Success is not a demo. Success requires evidence that the business problem is being addressed, trust boundaries are preserved, and downstream engineering decisions have enough evidence to proceed responsibly.

Success summary

LMU/COICP succeeds if internal engineering review shows that a bounded, evidence-preserving coordination workspace can improve clarity, ownership, handoff accountability, reviewability, and scope control for selected university operations scenarios without creating operational, privacy, safety, AI, or governance risk.

Business success metrics

ID Metric Scenario Driver Target or Direction Evidence Source
BSM-001 Intake clarity COICP-SYN-001 reviewer can identify owner, status, and creation evidence scenario review
BSM-002 Handoff accountability COICP-SYN-118 handoff from Campus Operations to Facilities is reconstructable evidence timeline
BSM-003 Role-appropriate visibility COICP-SYN-204 Residence Life sees assigned scenario and is denied unrelated/export access access review
BSM-004 Closure accountability COICP-SYN-219 closure rationale is present and reviewable closure evidence
BSM-005 Safety boundary COICP-SYN-322 normal incident is not created for emergency-related input boundary test
BSM-006 Scope discipline COICP-SYN-407 optional IT scenario does not expand into ITSM scope review

Operational success metrics

ID Metric Target Evidence Source Owner
OSM-001 24 reviewer accounts provisioned correctly 100% approved accounts only deployment/access records IT security reviewer
OSM-002 Spring dataset loaded correctly 421 synthetic records only deployment/release evidence Product Engineer / Compliance reviewer
OSM-003 March 18–22 review support path documented support procedure exists operations readiness evidence IT operations representative
OSM-004 AI Incident Summary unavailable no active UI/action path AI verification record AI reviewer
OSM-005 Emergency-boundary workflow clear Campus Safety accepts warning path review note Campus Safety liaison

Engineering success metrics

ID Metric Target Later Stage Use
ESM-001 Scenario lineage preserved each scenario traces from Vision to Testing traceability matrix
ESM-002 Evidence points identified creation, owner change, status change, handoff, closure, scope warning Architecture / Design
ESM-003 Risk lineage preserved DEF-001 through DEF-005 trace to scenarios Testing / Release
ESM-004 Navigation and repository structure consistent all artifacts reference correct workspace paths site quality
ESM-005 Internal-review boundary preserved no stage implies operational pilot Release / Governance

Trustworthiness metrics

ID Metric Scenario Driver Target
TM-001 Evidence preservation COICP-SYN-118 / 219 key actions are timestamped and attributable
TM-002 Access control COICP-SYN-204 allow and deny cases are testable
TM-003 Human oversight COICP-SYN-118 / 219 humans own status, owner, handoff, closure
TM-004 AI accountability all AI disabled through RC-001
TM-005 Scope safety COICP-SYN-322 emergency-related entry blocked or redirected
TM-006 Data minimization all synthetic-only records and no prohibited data

Negative success criteria

ID False Success Signal Why It Fails
NS-001 A polished demo without evidence timeline. Does not prove coordination trustworthiness.
NS-002 Faster updates that lose ownership accountability. Speed without evidence is not success.
NS-003 AI summaries that look useful but were not reviewed. Violates AI boundary and trust.
NS-004 More visibility by weakening role-based access. Violates privacy/security expectations.
NS-005 Emergency-related input accepted as normal incident. Violates safety boundary.
NS-006 Internal review treated as operational pilot. Violates release/governance posture.
NS-007 Synthetic data replaced by real incident records. Violates compliance boundary.
