Governance lifecycle

The governance lifecycle defines how governed bundles progress from creation to production readiness. Each bundle moves through predefined approval stages where evidence is collected, reviewed, and approved. Stages may include policy checks, risk assessments, and ethical evaluations. Approvers review submissions, document findings, and determine whether the bundle can proceed.

This lifecycle enforces consistency and accountability. It ensures that decisions are based on documented criteria and that risks are identified and resolved before release. Findings and approval transitions are recorded to support audit requirements and enable continuous improvement.
