Core Path Partners seeks to empower its ecosystem of partner organizations by identifying leading indicators of transformation, growth, or risk across multiple operational and behavioral data points. This project invites students to create a signal detection framework that identifies early markers of success or concern based on patterns in simulated or historical partner performance data.

Rather than relying on lagging indicators (e.g., revenue drop), this model would surface real-time soft signals like reduced initiative velocity, engagement drop-offs, or stalled milestone progress—enabling preemptive advisory action.

• Signal Mapping Framework – Define and score leading indicators of success, stall, or risk.

• Cohort Classification Model – Group partners by behavioral or performance traits using clustering.

• Signal Detection Algorithm – A rules-based or ML-based model that flags risk signals early.

• Growth Heatmap Visualization – A dynamic tool showing partner momentum across dimensions.

• Executive Summary Deck – Final 10-minute presentation on predictive value and strategic implications.
