Undertow Dock Throughput (UDT)
How fast the dock turns units around — the maintenance throughput that keeps the counter-pattern fleet flying.
Interpretation
This metric provides operational visibility into engineering 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Flowing | >= 50 | ok |
| Backed up | 20-50 | warn |
| Bottlenecked | < 20 | crit |
Data Collection
Sourced from Engineering · THE UNDERTOW. Readings are validated by GOVERNOR before publication to ensure consistency and prevent stale or duplicate values from reaching operational dashboards.
GOVERNOR Behavior
Flowing (>= 50): GOVERNOR logs the reading, updates the standing dashboard, and takes no further action. Backed up (20-50): 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. Bottlenecked (< 20): 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.
