Assemble certification evidence in the Digital Portfolio (tool #52) during deployment, with versioning and chain-of-custody, so assurance review passes first time.
01 Executive Overview
The Digital Portfolio is the evidence backbone of certification. This manual specifies the dossier structure, indexing, versioning and chain-of-custody so that an independent assurance review is fast and defensible. It maps each certification requirement to the evidence artifact that satisfies it, and shows how to capture evidence during deployment rather than reconstructing it later.
02 Purpose
Make assurance review fast and repeatable by standardizing evidence assembly.
03 Business Value
A clean portfolio is the difference between a one-pass and a multi-pass review.
04 Key Insights
- Evidence captured in-flow beats evidence reconstructed after the fact.
- Chain-of-custody is what makes evidence independently trustable.
- Map every requirement to a named artifact before you start.
