Program measurements on tracked delivery work, Dec 2025 – Jul 2026 cohorts, 170+ engineers. Not survey self-reports.

Read next to the independent evidence

The best independent figure is ~2x (Stanford/CMU 2026, 802 developers, quality held). Our cohort numbers are program measurements, not independent research. What makes them comparable: a baseline before and a measurement after; quality and documentation held, not just output; a practice documented across product, development and QA. Every engagement sets its ROI target before spend and measures after.

How we measure

Baseline first, on the team's own delivery data — throughput, cycle time, rework, defects and incidents, on the tracking they already use. Tracked work only. Speed and quality together, always. Competency evidence rather than completion.
