Engineering metrics for the board, straight from Jira
Delimetrics turns the work already tracked in Jira into a board-ready engineering story: how fast you ship, where engineering time goes, and how much of it is capitalizable. No spreadsheets the night before the meeting, no engineers logging hours.
From Jira tickets to a board-ready engineering narrative
Boards and CEOs do not want a backlog dump. They want to know whether engineering is delivering, where the money goes, and how much of the spend builds durable assets. Delimetrics connects to Jira Cloud, reads your custom fields for team, work type, and a capitalizable flag, and builds the dashboards that answer those questions. Setup takes minutes, and there is nothing to instrument in your Git or CI systems.
The three slides every CTO needs
Are we delivering?
DORA-style delivery metrics computed from Jira: throughput, median cycle time, median wait time, and predictability. Show trend lines the board can read at a glance instead of anecdotes about how the team is "moving fast".
Where does the time go?
The investment mix breaks delivered work into KTLO, Improve things, New things, and Productivity, measured against your targets. It answers the question every board asks: how much of our spend is keeping the lights on versus building the future?
How much is capitalizable?
A modeled CapEx versus OpEx estimate, derived from period cost times the share of delivered tickets flagged capitalizable. A defensible first-pass number for the finance conversation, without timesheets.
Built for the conversations boards actually have
Beyond the headline three, Delimetrics gives you roadmap predictability, your say/do ratio, on-time delivery and at-risk epics, plus bugs, MTTR, and incident views. When a board member asks "did we ship what we committed to last quarter?", you have the number on screen rather than a promise to follow up.
The capitalization output is a transparent, defensible modeled estimate built to start the finance conversation. It is not an accounting record and is not audit-grade. Treat it as a first-pass tool that your finance team can validate.
