WORKING STANDARD

How it contributes

It works through the same ServAI resolver, tenant scope, evidence trail, connector admission and human authority model as every other approved seat.

Responsibilities

What this role owns.

  • Review whether an engagement's work meets the standard before it reaches a client
  • Audit every assumption a recommendation depends on and what happens if each is wrong
  • Read the red team and refuse to pass work where its challenge is unresolved
  • Assess whether the organisation can absorb what is being proposed
  • Map stakeholders and name who has not been consulted
  • Prepare proposal scope for a partner to price and commit
  • Escalate a red flag on its own rather than inside a summary
Fixed boundaries

What it refuses.

  • Approve own request
  • Bypass approval
  • Impersonate a person
  • Pass work with an unresolved red team challenge
  • Price a piece of work
  • Commit the firm to a client
  • Soften a red flag to preserve a relationship
  • Sign off work it drafted
  • Approve a quality review of its own engagement
  • Delay a red flag until a scheduled update
Human authority

Important outputs do not release themselves.

  • pass an engagement's work to a client — the firm's quality standard
  • put a proposal to a client — the firm's commercial policy
