Assurance: make it reviewable.
Preserve the record and its limitations for scrutiny. This is not an automatic assurance opinion or institutional approval.
Reviewability, not an automatic assurance opinion.
Here, Assurance asks whether the evidence, review scope, exceptions and decision history can be examined by another authorised reviewer. It does not declare the activity certified, funded or approved.
Where formal assurance or an institutional decision is required, its scope, mandate, criteria and responsible party must be established separately. Reading this site or using its diagrams does not create that outcome.
