The charts show patterns. This table shows the events. Every statistically significant spike is logged here with its date, project, volume, baseline at the time, and severity classification — so you have a complete audit trail of when your backlog experienced abnormal pressure.

For compliance purposes, this log provides evidence of when demand anomalies occurred and how they were classified — useful for post-incident reviews and capacity planning retrospectives.

What you can conclude

  • Critical alerts (spikes exceeding 3× the baseline) represent the most significant demand events — each warrants a post-incident review.
  • High alerts (2–3× baseline) are significant but recoverable — useful for pattern analysis over time.
  • A log with no entries in a period indicates stable, predictable backlog inflow — a positive governance signal.

How this chart works

Timestamped audit table of all statistically significant spike events. Columns: spike date, project, inflow volume, baseline mean, spike ratio, alert tier (High = 2–3σ, Critical = >3σ).
