Vendor access
This part is for Aigna staff
Vendors see their own installation and the device reference they need to build it: device types, setup guides and models. Everything else stays with Aigna.

Agile, DevOps and SRE
Ways to deliver change in small steps with fast feedback, and to run services by measured reliability.
- How Keia relates
- Companion: standing rules and the learning loop borrow their habits
- Which version
- The Agile Manifesto (2001); the Scrum Guide (November 2020); DORA's five software delivery metrics (dora.dev, 2026); Google's Site Reliability Engineering book. Keia's standing rules, its change model and its learning loop sit alongside these; Keia does not deliver software.
How the ideas map
Each Keia idea, the practice it sits beside, and what Keia adds.
| Keia idea | Agile, DevOps and SRE practice | What Keia adds |
|---|---|---|
| Start from the building | SRE: service level objectives | Each service has an owner and a target; its map runs from the internet circuit to the device, lit by health |
| Capture, don't ask | SRE: eliminating toil; monitoring | Alerts arrive filled in, so nobody retypes them; a fix that keeps recurring becomes a standing rule instead of repeated manual work |
| Answer first | DORA: change fail rate, failed deployment recovery time | Pages open with within target or past target; alerts that led to an action are counted against alerts raised |
| Own it, hand it on | DORA: streamlining change approval | DORA found that heavyweight external approval did not lower change failures. A standing rule is approved once by its owner, runs within caps, is read back after every write, and halts on failures |
| Learn as you go | Scrum: the Sprint Retrospective. SRE: blameless postmortems | A lesson is captured where the work closes and proposed into the setup guide. Nothing scores or ranks a person |
Use your normal process here
- Software delivery: builds, tests, pipelines and deployments of code
- Backlogs, sprint planning and a team's cadence
- Error budget policies for software releases
- On-call rotations and paging
- Measuring software delivery with DORA's metrics
Words side by side
| Keia says | They say |
|---|---|
| Standing rule | Automated runbook; a pre-approved change |
| Unable to complete, rolled back | Failed deployment; rollback |
| Routine work a standing rule does | Toil, when a person does it by hand |
| Lesson; captured fix | Postmortem action item; retrospective improvement |
| Within target | Service level objective (SLO) met |

Opens as Declan, who owns the network and comms rooms. Everyone in the demo is made up; nothing you do leaves this browser.
- Open Standing rules: each names its owner, its caps and what it can put back.
- Open the PoE rule: its conditions, what it reads, what it writes, and how it is read back.
