DORA metrics are industry standards for DevOps performance. But tracked in isolation, they’re just that – standards. Plandek brings context, causality, and continuous improvement to DORA tracking by enriching these metrics with deep SDLC visibility, predictive analytics, and workflow automation.

Plandek DORA Metrics dashboard for 7th Jul–29th Sep 2025 showing four metric cards: Deployment Frequency 1.47 per day down 10.71% with a multi-line chart Jul–Sep, Lead Time for Change 87.89 hours up 16.44% with a stacked bar chart, Change Failure Rate 100% flat, and Mean Time to Restore 221.33 hours down 36.81% alongside Time to Recover from Build Failures 689.9 minutes up 91.71%

The Four DORA Metrics

Deployment Frequency
Deployment Frequency

AKA: DF, Deploy Frequency. How often code is successfully deployed to production (or released to end users).

Change Failure Rate
Change Failure Rate

AKA: CFR, and Change Fail Percentage. The percentage of deployments that cause a failure in production requiring remediation.

Quickly surface the DORA metrics

Plandek’s DORA dashboard template surfaces DORA metrics for analysis and drill-down.

Using Plandek’s flexible workspace functionality – DORA metrics can be viewed at multiple levels within your delivery organization (e.g. by product, value stream, release train etc)​.

Track & drive the underlying DORA metrics

Plandek’s ‘single pane of glass’ looks across the whole SDLC. It therefore enables you to track and drive improvement in the ‘second order’ metrics that result in improvement in the DORA metrics.

Deployment Frequency is influenced by Cycle Time and Flow Efficiency for example, and will only be improved by interventions in multiple ways across the SDLC as a whole.

  • If you want to know if engineering is running efficiently, Plandek gives you the complete picture. If I could take one product with me to a new company, it would be Plandek, and I did that when I joined PEI Group.

  • As we accelerated with AI, we’d see productivity improve, then plateau. Plandek helped us identify the next high-value constraint so we could unlock the next stage of improvement.

  • We’ve been really able to demystify what was once previously a really complex engineering process… and really build a better conversation around what it means to build good product software.

  • Predictability, while good, isn’t what we’re trying to optimise now. It is about speed to market. It will become table stakes: if you’re a technology business, you should be able to deliver software in no time at all. If you can’t, there’s a business problem looming.
