Insights: Engineering Leader and Organizational DORA Reports

[github-product-roadmap]

Summary
The GitHub developer research team, led by Dr. Nicole Forsgren, has continued to show that Software Delivery Metrics are the best way for teams to track and monitor team productivity. In this release, Insights will incorporate two of the most important product velocity metrics: Deployment Frequency and Lead Time for Changes. Engineering leaders will be able to use these metrics to identify opportunities to improve their organizational practices and culture. Through ongoing research that leverages the vast dataset of GitHub projects, benchmarks will receive refinements to give teams even better comparison points.

Artwork is for illustrative purposes. Actual experience may differ at launch.

Intended Outcome
Providing Engineering Directors and other engineering leaders essential product velocity metrics will enable them to improve organizational culture and see the impact of changes. Teams will be able to use benchmarks for making more meaningful comparisons and identifying opportunities to improve.

How will it work?
New dashboards and reports tracking Deployment Frequency and Lead Time for Changes will be added to the organization level Insights views. Drill-down experiences to view report details will provide additional insights. Benchmarks will include new options and more granularity of data, enabling more detailed comparisons.
