Controlled delivery lifecycle
1
Trainer releases the controlled brief, synthetic dataset, role allocation, constraints, and acceptance criteria.
2
The team creates the work plan, RACI, milestone schedule, risk and assumption log, communication plan, and quality plan.
3
Role pods create their assigned outputs in an approved sandbox while maintaining evidence, decisions, and handoffs.
4
QA samples work; specialists complete peer review; errors, accessibility issues, and control exceptions are corrected.
5
A trainer or assessor role-plays the fictional client, tests the solution, and records change requests without presenting the exercise as real client work.
6
Each learner is scored against role evidence and the common rubric; an independent moderator confirms consistency and critical-error decisions.
7
Only approved excerpts pass consent, privacy, IP, source, accessibility, truthfulness, and evidence checks before view-only publication.
8
The cohort record is closed, evidence retained or removed under the schedule, lessons logged, and a clean scenario version prepared for the next class.
Pass threshold: 80/100 and no critical error. Passing does not itself authorize public release.
