Single-Actor Resolution Rate

A closure where the same person who created the issue also closed it, without any other actor contributing, is the most basic form of missing approval. There was no independent review, no second pair of eyes, and no documentation of peer validation. This visual tracks how often this pattern occurs over time so you can see whether solo resolution is increasing or decreasing.

What you can conclude

• A rising solo-close rate over multiple weeks indicates deteriorating approval discipline — more people are resolving their own issues without peer involvement.
• A declining rate indicates that approval culture is strengthening — more closures involve a second actor.
• A consistently low solo-close rate is the target state — most closures involve documented peer participation.
