How to Close the Loop
Read-only view generated from the ADO query and debrief documents. Update the source debrief or related ADO work item; do not edit this file.
- Record initial action items in the debrief action table. Select Commitment explicitly; include Type when it adds useful context.
- Give committed actions a practical timing signal: a Due date, Target Horizon, or Next Review date. Keep exploratory work Recommended or in the Parking Lot until the team explicitly commits to it.
- For committed implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, or process work, add the related ADO work item link to the action row.
- Action owners update the related ADO work item as work progresses.
- If an action is completed without an ADO work item, the owner should notify the Communications Manager or update the debrief row where permissions allow.
- Communications Managers use cleanup flags to follow up on missing commitment decisions, missing owners or timing, vague actions, missing links, and completed work that has not been reflected back in the debrief record.
Tracker Definitions
- Cleanup needed
- The source debrief is incomplete or ambiguous—for example, an action lacks an explicit commitment, owner, timing signal, type, or required ADO link.
- Execution risk
- Follow-up may be blocked or untraceable because a debrief is missing, an action is blocked or stale, or a committed execution action lacks an ADO work item link.
- Stale
- An active action whose source debrief has not been modified for at least 14 days. The pipeline preserves the SharePoint modified time when it downloads documents.
- Not Execution-Ready
- The action wording is broad or ambiguous, or the source does not make ownership and the expected next step clear enough to execute.
- Legacy Format
- The source action table does not contain both Type and Commitment columns. Type may be inferred for grouping, but commitment is never inferred.
- Needs Decision
- The source does not explicitly classify the action as Committed, Recommended, or Parking Lot.
- Target horizon
- A flexible planning window for work without a firm due date. The Timing field can instead use a Due date or Next Review date.
