Executive Summary

This is the board-ready summary. It distills the entire portfolio's governance state into a handful of KPIs: number of projects currently in escalation, number approaching the escalation threshold, portfolio-level average risk score, and week-over-week change. No charts, no detail — just the numbers that executives need to assess whether the portfolio requires their attention.

What you can conclude

• A rising count of projects in escalation indicates that governance problems are spreading — portfolio-level action is needed, not just project-level fixes.
• A falling portfolio average score indicates that governance interventions are working across the board.
• A stable count with no change from last week indicates a steady state — either consistently well-governed or consistently problematic, depending on the absolute level.
