Overview

Engineering reviews drift into opinion when delivery and reliability are reported separately, or when averages hide a long tail. This deck puts the four DORA metrics in one story: a timeline for deployment frequency, a roadmap for lead time, a table for change failures, a process for restore, then commentary with owners.

The sample follows Marlowe Green Cloud in Q2 2027: deploys up from 9 to 21 a day, median lead time halved to 43 hours, change failure rate steady at 11% and restore time at 47 minutes. Replace the figures with your last four quarters, state the data source for each, and set a target for every metric.

Useful for

  • A quarterly engineering review with the CTO, VP of engineering and engineering managers
  • A monthly delivery health update showing trends in deploy frequency, lead time and failures
  • A platform team making the case for build and release investment using before-and-after medians

What's included

  • Cover slide and a deploy frequency timeline with milestones and a supporting definitions slide
  • Lead time roadmap with lanes for review, build, release and platform work, plus a breakdown slide
  • Change failure table by service with deploys, rates and main causes
  • Time to restore process from detection to postmortem
  • Commentary slide separating measurements from judgements, with actions and owners
  • Guide slide and a closing slide with contacts

How to use it

  1. 1

    Click Make a copy in Google Slides, then confirm on the Google page. The copy is saved to your own Google Drive.

  2. 2

    Replace the four headline DORA figures with your last four quarters of data and name the source of each.

  3. 3

    Set a target for each metric, flag the ones that are off track and update the service table.

  4. 4

    Limit actions to three, each with an owner, and delete any commentary your data cannot support.

  5. 5

    Delete the guide slide at the end, then share or present the deck.

Questions

Which DORA metrics does the deck cover?

All four: deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate and time to restore. Each has its own slide, with medians and p90 shown so averages do not hide a long tail.

Can I report by team instead of by service?

Yes, change the table rows to teams, but report team-level trends only and never rank individual developers. Tracking individuals distorts behavior and weakens the data.

Are the company and figures real?

No. Marlowe Green Cloud, its people, email addresses and every figure are fictional sample data. Replace them with your own measurements before presenting.
