AIP reporting touchpoints
Cadence Monthly roll-up → quarterly narrative
This program feeds Milestone health · gate outcomes · open-change count · FAT/SAT dates
Next roll-up Friday draft · in operational-KPI language, from coordination atoms only
Where it lands The brief · the owner reads a woven narrative, not a dashboard
Recurrence watch
Same finding, separate records 2 open follow-ups tagged to the same process step across this program COUNT
Validation gap 1 design revision with no first-article re-do opened yet
Reading Counts and linkage only · the record content stays in PLM, never threaded here
Pattern · proactive
Every Customer A gate review in your book has slipped at least once on an outstanding approval, never on the build. The approval clock is the thing to watch, so it's surfaced first.
