Will do Rick. 

So there are 3 things we want to know. How to build it? How does it impact
the system (this may be a relative thing)? And ultimately, does it do any
good? 

First one is easy to report. Second one will take a while to know because
SLAs need to be defined and then need to be used in production (unless its
so bad the dev system can't handle it). That's a few months away. The last
one will take still longer. 

So expect a quarterly report is what I seem to be saying.
