Where it fits
Choose whether the engagement concerns model assessment, agent behavior or third-party sourcing, then set separate acceptance criteria.
The decision to make
Agree what the proposed optimization is allowed to change before reviewing a better-looking metric. Model testing, tuning and validation have different decision owners. Keep business performance, disparity measures and calibration separate, and require a versioned record of the trade-offs rather than accepting an aggregate as evidence that every affected cohort improved.
What this record does not establish
Financial-services positioning and regulatory alignment language do not establish legal compliance, fair outcomes or independent validation. Product-generated recommendations require authorized specialist interpretation.
