Define the launch reliance
Set the service-launch decision, potential operational consequences and confidence required.
HCIIF IN PRACTICE · ENTERPRISE DELIVERY
Can we rely on this
supplier-readiness report?
A service launch. Three critical suppliers. One executive briefing that says everyone is ready.
The information
challenge.
The report is clear. The supporting evidence is not.
One supplier has current evidence. Another supplier’s evidence predates a material change. A third is ready only if an unresolved dependency is completed. The consolidated report and an AI-generated summary lose those qualifications.
Test the evidence behind the view
Use ECAM to assess the supplier evidence and whether consolidation or summarisation has changed its meaning.
Keep limitations visible
At the point of decision, show what the evidence supports, where a Confidence Gap remains and which conditions apply.
Respond when confidence changes
Carry the confidence basis in the IIP and reassess, update or recall it when evidence, dependencies or launch scope changes.
ILLUSTRATIVE INFORMATION INTEGRITY PASSPORT
What confidence is justified?
- Confidence basis
- One current evidence set; one affected by change; one subject to an unresolved condition.
- Justified reliance
- Suitable for targeted follow-up, but not an unconditional all-supplier readiness conclusion.
- Accountability
- The report owner maintains traceability. The launch authority retains the decision.
- Confidence Drift and reassessment
- New evidence, completion of the dependency or a change to launch scope.
HCIIF difference
HCIIF moves the discussion beyond whether the report appears complete to whether sufficient confidence exists to rely on it for this launch, its risks and its consequences.
This example illustrates intended HCIIF application. It does not describe a real organisation or claim validated outcomes.
