WEEK 03 · GOLDEN BATCH, WITH STATISTICS

Do one thing.
Then you are ahead.

Every plant manager has a "golden batch": the run that went perfectly and that everyone secretly compares against. The problem is that a single golden batch is an anecdote. This week you replace the anecdote with an envelope: what 80 normal batches look like together, with statistical limits instead of someone's gut thresholds. The analogy from your world is the portfolio dashboard. A single project running 5% late …

If you only do one thing this week: T² limits computed
