Pipeline Health Score

2026-05-31 8 min read

Pipeline health score is a composite metric that grades the operational quality of a sales pipeline — typically a 0–100 score combining coverage ratio, velocity, stage age, hygiene completeness, slip rate, push rate, and source diversity. Pipeline health scores translate dozens of leading-indicator metrics into one number that operators can track week-over-week. Best-in-class teams maintain pipeline health scores above 75.
