Why this goal

Rebuild the production log so utilisation can be computed

Vinod Shirke · Production

Vinod wrote this. Everything below is what Corto can show about where it came from and whether it holds up — including what it cannot stand behind.

Where it came from

A goal Corto proposed has a reason it exists. This is that reason, with the record behind it.

The finding

Capacity cannot be computed from anything connected

What was seen
The daily production log is registered for its update times only — its contents are never read, because merged cells and formula columns cannot be parsed. No other connected source carries line or machine output. The founder puts utilisation at about 80%.
What it means
The one number that decides whether to buy the next machine has nothing behind it. A new line stands idle while an old one runs overtime, and no connected record can say by how much.
What to do
Rebuild the production log as flat rows, one line per row, so next quarter computes utilisation instead of estimating it.

It serves The company stops lending its customers money it has already spent., a company goal.

What Corto read

Every record under every number in this goal — where it came from, how it was read, and when it was true.

  • Daily Production Log (shared drive), registered cadence-only

    from a filed or system record

    Used for: Lines whose output can be read from the log: 0 of 4 today, all 4 by December

    The record
    Daily Production Log.xlsx - merged cells and formula columns; content parsing off

Why these key results are enough

If every one of them lands, is the goal true? If the answer is no, the goal is measuring the wrong things.

All four lines readable is the whole of it — a log that can be read for three lines still cannot tell him whether to buy the machine.

Is it a good goal

4 of 5

SMART, checked against the goal itself. Where Corto asks more than SMART does, it says so — it is not a badge, it is what was actually tested.

  • S

    Specific

    holds

    The goal names a change, and leaves every number to its key results.

    SMART asks a goal to be specific. Corto asks it to be specific WITHOUT a number in it, so the target can move without rewriting what the company is trying to do.

  • M

    Measurable

    holds

    All 1 key results carry a start value, a target, a unit and the record they are read from.

    SMART asks for a number. Corto asks WHERE THE NUMBER COMES FROM — the actual record — because a target nobody can read is not measurable, it is only numeric.

  • A

    Achievable

    not yet

    Nothing is being done about this yet — no initiative sits under it.

    Corto does not judge whether an ambition is realistic — that is the founder's to set. It checks the two things it can see: that somebody is working on it, and that the number can actually be read.

  • R

    Relevant

    holds

    It serves “The company stops lending its customers money it has already spent.”, which is a company goal.

    SMART asks whether a goal matters. Corto asks WHAT IT SERVES, by name, all the way up to one of the three destinations — so relevance is a chain you can follow rather than an opinion.

  • T

    Time-bound

    holds

    It runs to Oct – Dec 2026, and nothing is scored before that period begins.
