End-to-end flow

Step procedure

Step	Actor	Action	Exit criteria
1	Business + tech owners	Write use-case brief (users, actions, data)	Brief reviewable
2	Inventory Registrar	Create/update inventory ID	Stable AI-SYS-####
3	Data Flow Mapper	Classify data; list processors/regions	Data-flow table complete
4	Risk owner	Assign tier; list mandatory controls	Tier + RACI signed
5	Control Mapper	Map each control to runtime evidence	No “PDF-only” controls for musts
6	Platform	Evaluate model/tools; record versions	Eval artifact linked
7	Gateway Binder	Bind policy bundle; version hash	Gateway shows active version
8	On-call + platform	Disable drill (<15m for high tier)	Drill log with timestamps
9	Owners	Staged enablement (pilot tenants → regions)	Expansion criteria met
10	Ops	Monitor quality/safety/cost SLOs	Alert routes tested

Material change rule

Any of these forces a return to inventory update and re-bind: new data class, new region, new tool with side effects, model/provider swap, prompt change that alters decision authority, or new automated action.

Parallelism rule

Do not enable a second high-risk use case on the same gateway path until the first has a green disable drill and inventory entry. Shared misconfiguration multiplies blast radius.
