A signed accountability and escalation matrix: Which evidence most directly resolves whether approval

AIGP Understanding the Foundations of AI Governance Hard

A signed accountability and escalation matrix directly establishes authority and executive responsibility before approval.

The question

A public benefit agency’s executive committee is considering a vendor model. The committee has a risk summary but no named decision owner or escalation route. Which evidence most directly resolves whether approval authority is accountable?

  1. A larger committee with beneficiary representatives.
    Broader participation may improve perspective, yet it does not by itself document approval authority or escalation ownership.
  2. The vendor’s model-validation report.
    Validation informs model performance, but it does not identify who may approve deployment or escalate unresolved organizational risk.
  3. A signed accountability and escalation matrix. ✓
    A signed matrix identifies decision authority, escalation paths, and accountable executives, directly resolving the stated governance uncertainty.
  4. Attendance records from committee meetings.
    Attendance shows participation, but it does not establish authority, responsibility, or required escalation for unresolved risk.
The trap
Match evidence to the uncertainty: authority questions require documented ownership and escalation, not merely testing or attendance.
