# Operating KPI Cadence

## When to use

Use this skill in the first weeks of ownership, when the reporting rhythm is set, and whenever the monthly pack has grown to forty pages nobody reads. Reach for it after a covenant scare, when the board finds it was watching the wrong measures a month too late.

## What it does

Produces the operating review as an installed process: a fixed calendar, eight to twelve measures each with a written definition, the reference against which each is read, escalation rules agreed before any variance appears, and an agenda that runs to decisions.

## Method

1. **Fix the calendar first.** Close by working day eight, pack out working day ten, review on working day twelve, actions within two days, published a year ahead. The dates should be boring and immovable; the 100-day plan's reporting rebuild exists to make them achievable.
2. **Choose eight to twelve measures, no more.** Four families: trading in the month, the unit economics behind it, cash and balance sheet, and covenant. Each earns its place by tracking a named lever in the EBITDA bridge or a covenant test; one mapping to neither is interesting, not operational.
