At Waydev, we have always believed that clarity is the foundation of engineering excellence. That is why, in order to help teams understand how well they are delivering value, maintaining quality, and creating business impact, we introduce to you Waydev Core 4, our unified model for engineering productivity built upon the basis of the DX Core 4™ framework created by Nicole Forsgren and the DX research team.
Waydev Core 4 consolidates decades of research from DORA, SPACE, and DevEx into a single, actionable model to help leaders measure and improve engineering performance in real time.
The framework organizes insights into four core dimensions that reflect how engineering teams operate day to day:
By combining system data with contextual insights, Core 4 by Waydev lets organizations balance speed with stability and innovation; it makes sure decisions are data-driven and oriented toward outcomes.
Every engineering team wants to know where they stand. To make that transparent, Waydev Core 4 introduces percentile benchmarks that compare performance across the industry:
These benchmarks put your data into context, enabling teams to set meaningful goals and celebrate measurable progress.
Accompanying Waydev Core 4, we’re also releasing Hygiene 2.0, rebuilt from the ground up for deeper and more flexible analysis. It’s now possible to filter insights at Group, Team, or Nested Teams levels for detailed performance reviews and targeted improvements.
It gets even better: each of those graphs is interactive, so click any metric to show the exact unlinked PRs behind the metric. Now it’s easier than ever to trace performance patterns, reveal process gaps, and verify that things are properly aligned in engineering workflows.
Waydev Core 4 is live and available now on the platform’s launch page. Understand how your teams perform across the four key dimensions, benchmark.
