Return to Part 1 Requirements

Statement

Cross-concern relationships involving policy-governed release SHALL preserve the distinction between governance, authority, Traceability, Evidence, Data, and Interpretation.

Source

Part 1, Section 13.6: Separation of Concerns Requirements.

Rationale

Policy-governed release involves governance, authority, traceability, evidence, data, and interpretation. These concerns interact when information is evaluated, authorised, transformed, released, withheld, audited, or reconstructed. Each concern retains a distinct architectural purpose.

This requirement prevents release governance from collapsing authority, data, interpretation, traceability, and evidence into a single release decision or implementation mechanism.

Applies To
