What is Velocity Governance?

Velocity Governance is the discipline of observing whether engineering practices keep pace with development velocity. As teams adopt AI and ship faster, Concordance monitors 50 protocols across 6 SDLC phases to ensure quality, security, and compliance don't degrade.

How does Concordance help with CRA compliance?

Concordance maps 50 engineering protocols to all 21 CRA Annex I essential requirements, generating continuous audit-ready evidence from your actual engineering toolchain — GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Linear, and more. No manual documentation required.

How does Concordance help with NIS2 compliance?

Concordance maps 50 engineering protocols to all 10 NIS2 Article 21(2) essential measures, providing continuous compliance evidence from your SDLC. It covers supply chain security, incident handling, risk assessment, and secure development practices.

The Foundation Scan is completely free — scan any public GitHub repository and get engineering practice scores across 50 protocols in under 60 seconds. No sign-up required. Pro plans start at $49/month for continuous monitoring.

How is Concordance different from DORA metrics?

DORA metrics measure deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate, and recovery time — they tell you how fast you ship. Concordance measures 50 engineering practices across 6 SDLC phases — it tells you if your processes can keep up with that speed. They're complementary: DORA measures velocity, Concordance governs it.

What does Concordance access?

Concordance reads only metadata — PR configurations, CI pipeline configs, branch protection rules, dependency manifests, and workflow signals. It never accesses source code, secrets, or credentials.

Automated assessment from repos, PRs, commits, branches, workflows, issues, and releases

GitLab Integration

Full source control scanning for GitLab — same 50 protocols, same evidence depth as GitHub

Bitbucket Integration

Full source control scanning for Bitbucket Cloud — PRs, branches, pipelines, and more

Linear Integration

Full coverage of all 50 protocols — cycles, issues, projects, labels, and estimation data

Jira Cloud Integration

Full issue tracker coverage for enterprise teams — sprints, estimation, backlog health, acceptance criteria

50 Engineering Protocols

Covering 6 stages: Requirements, Design, Development, Testing, Release, Operations

5-Level Maturity Scoring

Confidence-weighted scoring from Reactive (1) to Optimizing (5)

Team Portfolio Management

Multi-team portfolio view with cross-team heatmap, trend lines, and signal tab

SOC 2 / ISO 27001 Mapping

Every protocol mapped to compliance controls. Know your gaps before the auditor does

Historical Score Tracking

Assessment history with trend lines and improvement velocity per protocol

AI Sentinel

AI governance lens on the 10 protocols where AI raises the stakes — detects AI-active repos and surfaces elevated risk

Risk Bastion

Deployment safety lens — flags high-risk release patterns, rollback gaps, and incident response weaknesses before they become incidents

Pro Billing

Self-serve Pro subscription — $99/mo or $79/mo annual.

Evidence-Based Results

Every score shows the evidence and confidence level that drove it

Q4 2026

Azure DevOps Integration

Full source control + work item scanning for Microsoft-stack teams

AI Sentinel V2

Deeper detection — NLP on commit patterns and PR content to identify AI-assisted development practices, not just SDK dependencies

After That

Q1 2027

Slack Alerts

Notifications when scores change significantly, when AI Sentinel triggers, or when a deployment gate fails

Vision

2027+

Predictive Practice Monitoring

Proactive alerts when practices trend toward regression before scores drop

Building in the Open

The framework is open. The scoring methodology is documented. We believe engineering maturity should be measurable by everyone, not gated behind expensive consulting engagements. The tool automates what the framework defines.
