## Summary of Findings

The three remaining measures moved together on the 94 active engagements. Higher customer satisfaction came with a higher engagement indicator mean (r = 0.84, 95% CI 0.77 to 0.89). Customer satisfaction fell as intent to leave rose (r = −0.73, 95% CI −0.81 to −0.62). A higher engagement indicator mean came with lower intent to leave (r = −0.69, 95% CI −0.78 to −0.57). Cancellation likelihood, as respondents rated it, rose as customer satisfaction fell (r = −0.66, 95% CI −0.76 to −0.52). Of the 94 rated active engagements, 19 were at high and 39 at moderate cancellation likelihood.

## Analysis Results

## Interpretation of the Data

Canceled or at risk engagements numbered 114 in all (76.00% of 150). Customer satisfaction and the engagement indicator mean overlapped most among the active engagements (R squared 0.71).

## Limitations

The evidence is reported experience: what the delivery team said about its own engagement, gathered in one cross-section. The figures showed associations, not causes. Indicators about the financial institution were reported at second hand by vendor staff. Cancellation is a descriptive contrast, because canceled engagements were rated after they ended.

Cancellation likelihood on active engagements came from respondents' ratings on C039 under the rule printed in Analysis Results, so the at-risk count reflected what vendor staff expected rather than cancellations that occurred.

## Definitions

Table 5. DefinitionsTable

| Term | Definition |
| --- | --- |
| Indicator class | Derived from other indicators: computed by the study from other recorded fields, as Analysis Results sets out. |
| Failure category | One of the five failure categories of the Study Taxonomy, section 3. Only the 100 rated indicators carry one, and the indicator is not among them. |
| Direction | Each result is read in the direction of the measure it reports. |
| Engagement indicator mean | The mean of an engagement's 100 indicator ratings. |
