project-intelligence-root-cause-analysis

What problem does it solve? Project failures often have warning signs buried in change logs that go unnoticed until it is too late. This Skill reads the Change Events list on a SharePoint site and produces a complete causal analysis of a project failure, identifying the root cause, missed intervention windows, and early warning signals. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Counterfactual Root Cause Test: Scores high-signal events on upstream dependency, reversibility window, and documentation availability to identify the primary root cause. - Causal Chain and Intervention Mapping: Traces up to 8 steps from root cause to impact event and maps every point where intervention was still possible. - Early Warning Signal Analysis: Classifies each signal by detectability (HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW) and computes lag between first signal and impact. - Persistence to SharePoint: Writes findings back to the Change Events list, saves a dated analysis document to the Project Documents library, and updates SHAREPOINT.md. - Use Case: After a failed delivery engagement, ask Copilot to run root cause analysis on the project and receive an executive summary, a detailed audit-ready report, and a metrics dashboard. ## Quick Start Ask Copilot in SharePoint to run root cause analysis on the project using the Change Events list populated by the Change Event Extraction skill.
