OKR template to substantially reduce technical debt across all projects
This operations OKR template is a strong starting point for teams that need better alignment, clearer priorities, and more disciplined goal tracking.
Use it to turn a business priority into a measurable objective, then review progress weekly so your team can adjust execution before the quarter gets away from you.

The second part of the plan focuses on simplifying the codebase complexity by 25% through the use of effective refactoring techniques. Tasks include performing a thorough review of the code on a regular basis to maintain simplicity, and taking steps to identify and remove redundant and inefficient code pieces.
The final objective is to perform bi-weekly code reviews. The aim is to find and solve 30% of debt issues. To achieve this, code review sessions will be scheduled every two weeks, during which time problems contributing to code debt will be identified, and solutions for 30% of these identified issues will be implemented.
These objectives all come together to create a strategy aimed at significantly reducing the overall technical debt across all projects. The approach is comprehensive, tackling multiple fronts by increasing test coverage, simplifying the codebase, and incorporating regular review sessions for constant monitoring and control of the quality of the codebase.
