P2G
What is P2G?
Path to Green (P2G) is used across Amazon’s project management, operations, and performance reporting to define a clear, actionable recovery plan for anything that is currently underperforming - typically marked as "red" (critical) or "yellow" (at-risk) in internal dashboards.
P2G typically includes:
- Root cause identification (why the target is off-track)
- Corrective actions and specific tasks
- Timelines and ownership for resolution
- Expected outcomes and success metrics
Where P2G is used:
- Vendor performance reviews (e.g. OTIF, fill rate, chargeback reduction)
- Project management for product or feature launches
- Team performance dashboards (finance, retail, logistics, tech)
- Weekly Business Reviews (WBRs) or Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs)
Why P2G matters:
- Provides a structured framework for getting KPIs back on track
- Encourages accountability and cross-team collaboration
- Allows leadership to track progress toward goal recovery
- Critical for avoiding escalations and maintaining trust with Amazon
💡 Example: A vendor with an OTIF score of 89% (below Amazon’s 95% target) submits a P2G plan outlining root causes (carrier delays), actions (booking compliance retraining), and a timeline to recover within 60 days.
In short:
P2G (Path to Green) is a structured action plan used at Amazon to bring an underperforming metric, project, or partnership back into “green” - or acceptable - status.
