Obtain use-case limits: What should the buyer require?
Require use-case limitations, responsible owners, and incident contacts; benchmarks do not establish accountability.
The question
For an EU internal deployment subject to applicable EU AI Act obligations and the buyer’s procurement policy, a third-party coding assistant supplier provides benchmark scores but no use-case limitations, responsibility assignments, or incident contacts. Procurement requires evidence supporting deployment accountability. What should the buyer require?

- Require the supplier’s general product documentation and standard support terms.Generic documentation and support terms may omit the buyer’s use-case constraints, assigned responsibilities, and incident arrangements.
- Request a contractual warranty covering future operational outcomes.A warranty may allocate some contractual risk, but it does not provide the operational limits, owners, or incident contacts required for accountability.
- Obtain use-case limits, owners, and incident contacts. ✓These disclosures directly address the missing scope and accountability information needed for responsible deployment and incident handling.
- Accept the supplier’s benchmark report as deployment-readiness evidence.A benchmark has bounded scope and does not establish use-case limitations, responsibility assignments, or incident contacts.
The trap
For third-party systems, ask what applies to the actual use case, who is responsible, and how incidents are handled. How to remember it
Require use-case limitations, responsible owners, and incident contacts; benchmarks do not establish accountability.
