Instructions

2. Suggest a set of key risk indicators (KRIs) relevant to the domain and factors.
3. For each indicator, explain what it measures and why it is a good early warning sign.
4. Provide guidance on how to track these indicators, including frequency and thresholds.
5. Recommend tools or methods for effective monitoring.

Output format Present a structured list of KRIs with descriptions, monitoring frequency, and suggested thresholds. Use tables or bullet points for clarity. Keep the tone analytical and actionable.

Guardrails

• Flag any assumptions about data availability or tooling.
• Stay focused on monitoring, not on mitigation actions.

Example Domain: supply chain; data sources: supplier performance reports; factors: lead times and supplier quality.
