Gating requirements
-
We currently use the mechanism "Automated cross-validation based on an abstraction from user-level data" in the D.5 section of PAAB Guidance for gating mechanisms. However, the recent online training mentions that it is necessary to use a "Validated License Number" which may suggest a verification from a third party or in-house verification.
It may be a misinterpretation, but we would like to make sure the current methodology we are using is valid for our future projects and that the guidelines are not subject to any change in a near future. -
Hello @natbourre
The training speaks to an option for gating that would meet a sufficient barrier. The current methodology you are using (D.5 section of the PAAB Guidance for gating mechanisms) remains to be a valid gating mechanism. The guidance document provides additional options that would meet Code section 1.4.k.E. A gate should meet the standards outlined in the guidance which could be met by using a third party or in-house verification as one option.
