HOW TO READ AN ANSWER

Put the answer beside the evidence.

A policy may say one thing while a system does another. Keep the supporting document beside your answer so the next reviewer knows what to check.

  1. AnswerWhat the team says it knows.
  2. Document or recordWhat supports the answer.
  3. SourceWhich dated source/status note gives context.
  4. UncertaintyWhat still needs human checking.
