Why it works
The case study earns its Turnaround tag by anchoring the before-state in a specific, uncomfortable number: 64% of incidents were reported by customers first. That single metric makes the reversal to 100% proactive detection land as a genuine recovery, not a routine upgrade. The mechanism is well described, walking through BubbleUp, alert discipline, OpenTelemetry adoption, and the cultural spread via Slack and O11y Champions, so a reader can trace exactly how the result was achieved.
Steal this
Track the uncomfortable metric publicly before you pitch the fix. iQmetrix named 'client-detected incidents' and '36% unresolvable root cause' upfront, which makes the turnaround concrete and verifiable instead of vague.
