Insights metrics glossary: what every KPI on the dashboard means

Updated May 18, 2026

The Insights dashboard surfaces KPIs that drive maintenance decisions. This page defines each one precisely so meetings stop with "what exactly does completion rate count?".

Completion rate

Formula: completed_on_time / scheduled_in_period

A scheduled task counts as "completed on time" if its Complete action fires before the cadence window closes. Skips with reasons count as completions (the work was acknowledged); skips without reasons do not.

Target: ≥ 95% for daily, ≥ 90% for weekly, ≥ 85% for monthly.

Overdue ratio

Formula: overdue_at_period_end / scheduled_in_period

A task is overdue the moment its due window closes without a completion, skip, or defer. Overdue is point-in-time — once you complete it, it leaves the numerator immediately.

Watch for: a sustained overdue ratio above 10% usually means cadences are too aggressive for available staffing.

Mean time to repair (MTTR)

Formula: sum(close_time − create_time) / count(work_orders_closed)

Calculated only on work orders, not scheduled tasks. Excludes any time the work order was paused with status Waiting on parts or Waiting on vendor.

First-response time

Formula: sum(first_status_change − create_time) / count(work_orders_closed)

Measures how long a work order sits before a human acknowledges it. P1 target: ≤ 15 minutes.

Reopen rate

Formula: reopened_within_30_days / closed_in_period

A high reopen rate per technician suggests training opportunity. A high reopen rate per asset suggests the asset is failing and may need replacement.

SOP coverage

Formula: tasks_with_linked_sop / total_active_tasks

Tells you what fraction of recurring work has a documented procedure attached. Target: 100% for safety-critical work; 80% overall is realistic for most facilities.

Photo verification rate

Formula: completions_with_photo / completions_in_period

Useful for facilities running guest-facing standards (hotels, restaurants). Photo verification is only enforced on tasks that have it turned on in Admin → Cadences.

Time period selector

The dropdown above the dashboard scopes every metric to Today, This week, This month, Last 30 days, or Custom. The selector persists per user.
