The issues

What went wrong during the period, and how it was handled.

The part

What it is

Issue count matters less than issue handling. A partnership with problems that get resolved quickly is healthier than one with few problems and slow resolution.

Repeat issues are the signal worth acting on, since they indicate something structural.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.

Issue
What went wrong.
Text shared type
Time to resolve
How long, which is the better health measure.
Duration shared type
Recurrence
How many times this has happened, which is what indicates a structural cause.
Number shared type
