Intervention-Timing Sync (ITS)
Whether the counter lands when it matters. A disclosure shown after the impulse has already fired protects no one.
Interpretation
This metric provides operational visibility into reach & coverage performance. Changes in value should be interpreted in the context of current threat levels and recent counter-operations. GOVERNOR uses this reading alongside related metrics to maintain a composite picture of directorate readiness.
Formula
Thresholds & Bands
| Band | Range | State |
|---|---|---|
| Synced | ≥ 80% | ok |
| Lagging | 55-80% | warn |
| Missed | < 55% | crit |
Data Collection
Computed by GOVERNOR from its internal decision log and state tables. Values are deterministic — the same input state always yields the same reading.
GOVERNOR Behavior
Synced (≥ 80%): GOVERNOR logs the reading, updates the standing dashboard, and takes no further action. Lagging (55-80%): GOVERNOR escalates to an advisory notification. The on-duty watch officer receives an alert, and the metric is flagged in the next Steward briefing if the condition persists for two consecutive reporting periods. Missed (< 55%): GOVERNOR triggers an immediate escalation. The Steward is notified directly, the relevant department head is paged, and all related dashboards enter amber-alert mode until the reading recovers above the warning threshold.
