Model choice is usually made by whoever set the tool up. This records which models are approved for what, so the decision is deliberate and reviewable.
What's Included
- Approved models with permitted uses and clear restrictions.
- Where each model runs which is often the deciding factor.
- A review when a model changes because vendors update constantly.
- An assistant that suggests the appropriate approved model.
How To Use
- Approve by use, not by model alone. The same model is fine for one task and not another.
- Record where the model runs and what happens to the data.
- Review when a vendor updates. An approval attaches to a version.
- Keep the list short enough that people actually consult it.
Link it to the policy register, and enforce it in the governance office.
