AI Governance
NIST AI RMF human-in-the-loop paragraph
Every generative workflow we operate is bounded by a documented review gate. Model outputs are treated as drafts until a named human reviewer with subject-matter authority approves them, and each approval is logged with the reviewer, timestamp, and evaluation result. Controls are mapped to the NIST AI Risk Management Framework functions of Govern, Map, Measure, and Manage, and to OMB M-24-10 requirements for public-facing federal content.
