Reading the chart
The following example shows that the team had only 10% estimation accuracy for 2018 Q1delivered only around 25% for the for 2018 Q2 PI objectives. Starting 2018 Q2 Q3 it looks like the lessons were learnt, and the team's estimates (commitments) become much more accurate - around 50% and moredelivery rate became much better.

|---|---|
| Total BV committed | Sum of all planned BV for all PIs in the report. The sum of all planned BV in the PIs tab is equal to the Total BV committed in the Summary tab. This means that a feature can be calculated several times in the Total BV committed. |
| Total BV delivered | Sum of all BV for all PIs within the period for the reporting. If the feature was planned in several PIs but got delivered in the last one, only this one will be count for the PI where it was delivered. |
| Lower point | Point where a delivered Business Value percentage should be considered to be still within the norm. The default is 80%. |
| % of BV delivered | Total BV delivered / total BV committed for the period of the report. |
| Total features | Sum of all features examined for the report, even not delivered ones. |
