summary

Argues that routine reliability reviews must be driven by measurable signals and describes a four‑phase rollout: DIY templates, facilitated reviews, tooling for facilitators, then a self-service reporting platform that launched in V1 and extracts key content in minutes. Architecture uses lightweight API scrapers feeding a central data warehouse ingestion with three transform layers; ownership mappings prove sparse and required manual reconciliation. Demonstrates that facilitators reduce prep toil, shows surprising uptake from simple templates, and that the automated reports materially speed preparation and focus discussions.
