"We had a huge launch on September 1st of this year where we completely redesigned our application from the grounds up and also migrated to a new platform (React.JS). This project took us 8 months and the launch was a huge deal for the team.
Unfortunately the launch wasn't as smooth as we expected and despite doing multiple rounds of QA, some major issues cropped up in the core part of the app right after launch and our client was quite upset since it was disrupting their day-to-day workflow.

Understand Current Status of the Program: Program Goals, Schedule, How many teams, what are their deliverables, dependencies between teams
Team level view of progress: Through tools like Burn down charts, Gantt charts etc. Identify laggards (lagging teams).
Trend analysis for lagging teams: Understand at what point, the decline started.
