One thing is to, eventually, outline a performance criteria for yourselves, once you've established a routine and are happy with how things are running. Nothing like creating your own expectations to hold yourself to account and letting people know how you aim to perform. If your aim is 90% of the time to to publish global sales data for a week within 7 days of the end of the week then put that out there as what you plan to try to achieve. If you give yourself a 90% performance target then it means hitting a slow patch for a short time is OK because as long as you are meeting the 90% over a, say, 4-month moving window, then all is right with the world.

Of course you should not nail yourselves down to any such thing for quite a while yet until you have a really good idea of what your BAU processes can consistently deliver.
