RDC Signoff Dashboard

What to track for RDC signoff, how to read progress honestly, waivers, and the final signoff package.

  • 4topics
  • 4lessons

Signoff work is invisible until it is tracked: findings hide in reports, waivers expire quietly, and a clean run goes stale with the next RTL change. The dashboard is the small set of metrics and records that keeps RDC closure honest from the first analysis run to the final package.

Learning path through the RDC signoff dashboard topic.
Suggested order. Metrics first, then reading them, then waivers, then the package.

Lesson

After it you can...

What to track

Name each RDC metric and the question it answers.

Reading RDC progress

Read trends honestly and spot false-clean risks.

Waivers in RDC

Write, review, and expire RDC waivers correctly.

Final signoff package

Assemble the evidence package that says closed.

Check yourself The dashboard shows zero open findings. What must you check before celebrating?

Whether the run is on the final RTL with the final intent, whether anything was waived without evidence, and whether excluded scope hides findings: a clean number needs all three to mean anything.
