Frequently asked questions
Is the result final or binding?
No. It is a planning result based on the entered assumptions and should be revised when evidence changes.
Can this replace specialist review?
No. Obtain qualified technical, commercial, legal, privacy or research review where the decision requires it.
How should the result be documented?
Record the inputs, evidence source, owner and next review date so the decision remains explainable.
