How Threshold works.
We start with what is already in place. The Assessment establishes the current position. The findings determine what happens next.
From evidence to operating governance.
One engagement, with a clear position at each stage.
The Threshold Assessment
Work on site with the relevant functions. Test the institution’s position against evidence. Issue the Findings Record.
Work the findings
Resolve what belongs with the functions involved. Take matters requiring institutional authority to leadership.
Put decisions into governance
Carry agreed decisions into the policies, accountabilities and controls the institution needs.

What is produced depends on the findings and the decisions that follow. Existing instruments stay where they already work.Six Dimensions. No overall score.
Each Dimension stands on its own. A strong position in one area does not cancel a material issue somewhere else.
The six Dimensions are supported by 68 core governance indicators, with additional conditional data-lifecycle controls where they apply.
Evidence before position.
The Method keeps representation separate from evidence. A policy, process or control can exist in different states, and those states are not collapsed into one answer.
Coverage is also stated separately as Full, Qualified or Limited. Regulatory findings remain separate from the governance position.
Evidenced
The practice is supported by direct evidence.
Evidenced by proxy
Another record supports the practice indirectly.
Represented, not evidenced
The institution describes the practice, but the available record does not yet support it.
Not present
The practice is not evidenced as operating.
The crosswalk keeps the source visible.
The crosswalk shows how a finding relates to applicable GCC and sector requirements, institution-specific requirements and recognised international references.
ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF and other recognised references are used where relevant. They do not replace local requirements, and framework coverage is not presented as a compliance or maturity score.
Clear boundaries.
Threshold works on institutional AI governance. Specialist functions retain authority over how their own work is performed.
