Execute your OKRs with profit.co

Six steps that turn your goals into scored, visible outcomes every quarter.

  1. Create your OKRs

    Set objectives and key results at corporate, department, team, and individual levels. Profit.co's AI Authoring drafts high-quality OKRs in seconds, ready for you to refine.

  2. Align goals across every team

    Cascade corporate OKRs down to departments, teams, and individuals. The alignment view shows every owner exactly how their key results contribute to the company's priorities.

  3. Assign owners and automate check-ins

    Give every key result an owner and a check-in frequency. Automated reminders prompt owners to update progress, status, and comments, so nothing slips between reviews.

  4. Track progress with live dashboards

    Heatmaps, confidence scores, and status charts show progress at a glance. Switch between eight OKR views, from Gantt to hierarchy, to suit every stakeholder's needs.

  5. Review and course-correct mid-quarter

    Confidence-based statuses flag at-risk key results automatically. AI Summaries turn check-ins into concise review notes, so you can decide what to accelerate, escalate, or rework.

  6. Reflect and reset

    Answer reflection questions at quarter-end to capture what worked well. Then reset each key result for next quarter: continue, modify, or complete and close it.

Who is this for

Built for the Six Sigma and continuous-improvement roles that run the DMAIC portfolio in a manufacturing operation.

  • Master Black Belt

    Owns the DMAIC portfolio and Belt-development KRs, steering project selection and mentoring the Belt community.

  • Black Belt

    Owns on-schedule delivery and process-capability KRs, leading the highest-impact DMAIC projects to completion.

  • Continuous Improvement Manager

    Owns benefit-realization and sustainment KRs, making sure verified savings hold after the project closes.

  • Quality Engineer

    Drives the DPMO and Cpk KRs, tying statistical capability gains to the critical-to-quality characteristics.

  • Green Belt (Process Engineer)

    Owns control-plan sustainment KRs, running part-time DMAIC projects alongside a process-engineering role.

  • Operations Director

    Reviews the full programme scorecard and holds the site accountable for the quarter's capability and savings targets.

Why teams use this template

Owned goals, measurable targets, and progress every stakeholder can see.

  • Move projects, don't just list them

    Tracking DMAIC completion and on-schedule delivery as KRs surfaces stalled projects, so a full pipeline actually closes rather than sitting in the Analyze phase.

  • Verify the benefit, not just the activity

    A benefit-realization KR requires finance to sign off the savings, so reported gains reflect money the business actually kept rather than projected estimates.

  • Tie improvement to real capability

    Sigma-level and Cpk KRs link project work to measured process capability on the CTQs, proving the improvement moved the statistics, not just the paperwork.

  • Make the gains stick after handoff

    A control-phase sustainment KR keeps a control plan in place once the Belt moves on, so hard-won gains do not erode back to baseline next quarter.

How to use this template

Three steps to go from download to a filled-in plan for your team.

  1. Review the filled example (Sheet 1)

    Walk through three pre-filled objectives and nine key results with realistic targets, owners, progress scores, and lifecycle statuses. Use it as a reference before entering your own data.

  2. Fill in the blank template (Sheet 2)

    Add your department and quarter. Write your three objectives and nine key results, giving every KR an owner, a baseline, and a target.

  3. Track progress in the Excel tracker

    Enter the latest value in the Actual column each week. Progress and Lifecycle Status calculate automatically, and the Overall OKR Score updates in real time.

Frequently asked questions

A Six Sigma OKR is a structured goal framework that sets measurable targets for a Six Sigma programme, converting a list of DMAIC projects into quarterly objectives with owned key results for project completion, process sigma level and Cpk, benefit realization, and Belt development.
