Your OKR template

The primary goal of this OKR is to increase the profitability of the Quality Assurance (QA) teams in an organization. There are three strategic outcomes to foster this: cutting costs, improving efficiency, and reducing software defects.

The first outcome deals with cost-saving measures through automation. Implementation of automation tools can aid in identifying repetitive tasks, and consequently, reduce budget costs by 10%. Continuous monitoring of these savings also forms a part of this initiative.

The second objective emphasizes operational efficiency by reducing overall testing time by 20%. This involves prioritizing critical test areas, automating the testing process, and periodic reviewing and revising of testing protocols.

The last proposed outcome aims at decreasing software defects by 15%. This will require continuous improvement training for teams, implementing comprehensive review processes, and conducting regular software testing sessions.
