Review records

Check before you go live.

Use these records to check decisions, access, tests, and release readiness. Production and high-impact work need qualified independent human review.

Decision record

What was decided, why, and by whom.

What to check

The decision, alternatives, evidence, assumptions, approver, conditions, review date, and what would reverse it.

Data and access limits

Where work runs and what people or agents may access.

What to check

Permitted information classes, processing locations, repository custody, accounts, permissions, access owners, retention, handover, and prohibited transfers.

Test and review record

What passed, what failed, and what is still uncertain.

What to check

The use case, pass criteria, test set, failure cases, result, exceptions, reviewer, and version.

Owners and approvals

Who approves, acts, escalates, or stops the work.

What to check

Named owners, who may decide what, approval points, limits, escalation, and who can refuse or stop the work.

Risk register

Each risk, its safeguard, and its owner.

What to check

The risk, its impact, evidence, safeguard, owner, status, remaining risk, review date, and accepted exceptions.

Release checklist and operating guide

How to release, run, recover, and hand over the system.

What to check

Release criteria, evidence, approver, monitoring, what to do when something breaks, how to undo a release, support owner, and exit plan.

About these guides

These are illustrative, high-level guides. They are not client evidence, a formal audit, legal advice, a certification claim, or the complete proprietary delivery method.
