From purchase and deployment to expansion and renewal, ETE examines whether a defined AI workflow performs, creates worthwhile value, and remains under effective human control.

01 / ETE Assurance

AI & Agent Readiness Assessment

Performance. Value. Control.

A focused acceptance review of one AI workflow before deployment or expansion. We agree what success means, examine representative tasks and operating conditions, and document the evidence for proceeding, addressing gaps, or conducting further evaluation.

View the assessment

What the scope can include

  • Workflow boundaries and agreed acceptance criteria
  • Authorized testing with representative tasks and data
  • Task completion, errors, review effort, and operating cost
  • Permissions, human approvals, escalation, and recovery
  • Observed, documented, asserted, and unavailable evidence
  • An assessment report and executive decision brief

02 / ETE Assurance

Third-Party AI Assurance

Examine the product in the context of your use.

Before buying, integrating, or renewing an AI product, examine the vendor’s evidence against your requirements. The scope can include AI used within an outsourced service, where the supplier provides access to meaningful evidence. Findings identify what is supported and what still needs an answer.

What the scope can include

  • Vendor claims and evidence against your intended use
  • Data handling, retention, and access practices
  • Model and other third-party dependencies
  • Acceptance testing in your configuration, where authorized
  • Update practices, switching dependencies, and exit readiness
  • Procurement or renewal brief and targeted evidence requests

03 / ETE Assurance

Continuous Assurance

Revisit the decision when the system changes.

Keep assurance proportionate to what has changed. Agree review dates and triggers, then retest affected tasks and controls when models, data, tools, permissions, or intended uses change. This service provides scheduled and event-triggered assessments; it does not include 24/7 runtime monitoring.

What the scope can include

  • Scheduled reviews and agreed material-change triggers
  • Targeted retesting of affected tasks and controls
  • Review of client monitoring, incident, and exception records
  • Performance, review effort, and operating-value trends
  • Recovery, manual fallback, and supplier exit readiness
  • Updated findings, open actions, and decision conditions

Government & Public Sector

Independent assurance. Mission-specific context.

Government engagements use the same core focus on evidence, controls, and accountability, adapted to the program’s procurement and deployment requirements.
