> Manage AI governance assurance activities in AIGO Framework Studio.

# Assurance

The Assurance workspace records activities that provide structured confidence about the operation and effectiveness of AI governance arrangements.

## When to use it

Use Assurance when an organization performs a structured assurance activity over governance processes, controls, evidence, decisions, or AI system operation.

Assurance may draw on reviews, assessments, validation activities, monitoring results, evidence, incidents, changes, and other governance records.

## What to enter

Record the assurance information needed by the organization's assurance process, including where applicable:

* Assurance scope
* Objectives
* Criteria or basis for the activity
* Governance areas reviewed
* Evidence considered
* Findings or observations
* Exceptions or limitations
* Assurance conclusion or outcome
* Actions or recommendations
* Responsible person
* Date
* Supporting evidence

Clearly record the scope and basis of the assurance activity so its outcome can be understood in context.

## What the result means

An assurance record provides a traceable record of an assurance activity and its outcome.

Assurance can identify strengths, gaps, limitations, findings, or actions requiring further governance attention.

An AIGO Studio assurance record is not a certification, accreditation, or conformity assessment. It does not by itself establish compliance with a law, regulation, standard, or external scheme.

## What comes next

Use assurance findings to inform governance decisions, controls, risk treatment, corrective actions, monitoring, reassessment, or continuous improvement as appropriate.

## Framework reference

Follow the applicable AIGO Framework guidance for assurance, evidence, validation, controls, management review, monitoring, risk management, and continuous improvement.
