Assessment questionnaire for measuring maturity. Answer each question honestly based on current, implemented practices.
Practice: Implementation Review (IR) Domain: Software Purpose: Assess organizational maturity in verifying that the actual code and configuration of AI/HAI software artifacts match the design approved at DR, and stay there as artifacts evolve. Scoring Model: Evidence + Outcome Metrics (see Scoring Methodology below)
| Score | Label | Criteria |
|---|---|---|
| 1.0 | Fully Mature | Evidence complete + ≥3 outcome metrics meet targets |
| 0.67 | Implemented | Evidence complete + 2 outcome metrics meet targets |
| 0.33 | Partial | Evidence partially complete + <2 metrics meet targets |
| 0.0 | Not Implemented | No evidence of practice |
Level Score = Average of the three question scores at that level Overall Score = Weighted average across all levels achieved
At this level, the gap between approved design and running system is systematically checked at the moments it matters most. Every review produces findings with severity tags, named owners, and SLA-bound resolution dates.
Q1.1: Is there a published, per-archetype IR checklist, one per SM-Software archetype (LLM-integrated app, agent, RAG, fine-tune/training, eval harness, model-serving service, classical ML), covering code-matches-pattern verification, config-matches-DR verification, SR REM evidence currency check, logging-event production verification, and kill-switch test execution?
Evidence Required: - [ ] Published checklist per SM-Software archetype on file and linked from the SM inventory (LLM-integrated app, agent, RAG, fine-tune/training, eval harness, model-serving, classical ML) - [ ] Agent checklist explicitly verifies tool allowlist enforcement in deployed code (not only in DR checklist), per-tool scope, HITL gate function, and tool-call logging completeness - [ ] Code-repo drift sources reviewed since last IR: commits touching SA-pattern-control files (output filter, tool allowlist, session bounds, vault bindings, HITL gate, kill-switch, egress config, prompt template) reviewed and delta documented with findings - [ ] Kill-switch test executed and recorded with test input, expected behavior, actual behavior, test date, and reviewer on file, not a checkbox without a test record - [ ] SR REM evidence currency check present: a stratified sample of REM rows verified against current observable reality (no-train vendor admin console state, secrets-scan result currency, kill-switch test recency) - [ ] Logging-event production verified: a sample of prompt/completion/tool-call/admin-audit events pulled from the pipeline and confirmed present with correct format and retention policy

At this level, implementation review becomes a continuous signal for Critical and High-tier artifacts. No-train and retention settings are validated recurrently via vendor admin APIs. Tool scope for agent artifacts is tested at each IR cycle.
