Situation
After a committee that has not met since the last incident, committee charter that does not define escalation is what post-deployment monitoring owner can touch in an enterprise that just bought an AI 'control plane' vendor. AI Governance Layer will live with Policy or governance breach versus Model defect on this Lifecycle and Accountability file.
Decision
Post-deployment monitoring owner in an enterprise that just bought an AI 'control plane' vendor must choose Policy or governance breach / Model defect / Dual failure / Hold for the missing fact using committee charter that does not define escalation after a committee that has not met since the last incident.
Hypotheses to test
- Committee charter that does not define escalation reads as Policy or governance breach once a committee that has not met since the last incident is lined up to the same AI Governance Layer population.
- Committee charter that does not define escalation is closer to Model defect after a committee that has not met since the last incident; Policy or governance breach would over-claim this Lifecycle and Accountability extract.
- Dual failure is still live in committee charter that does not define escalation for post-deployment monitoring owner in an enterprise that just bought an AI 'control plane' vendor.
- Committee charter that does not define escalation is missing the fact post-deployment monitoring owner needs after a committee that has not met since the last incident; stop this AI Governance Layer close.
Analysis required
- Test whether a committee that has not met since the last incident changed routing, logging, or human-in-the-loop on the live agent path.
- Score whether the agent action in committee charter that does not define escalation was in-policy, out-of-policy, or unlogged.
- Confirm the inventory line still matches the running configuration in an enterprise that just bought an AI 'control plane' vendor.
- For this AI Governance Layer Lifecycle and Accountability file, read committee charter that does not define escalation against a committee that has not met since the last incident and write the one fact that would move agents must have a human gate for post-deployment monitoring owner.
