Evidence a notified body accepted
Every change to validated software needed a traceable reviewer, a documented rationale and a signature.
- Signed merges
- 100%
- Modules
- 24
- Export
- Per release
Reviews happened. Proving it was the project.
The reviews were being done properly — the difficulty was producing evidence in a form a notified body would accept, per release, without a manual audit each time.
The existing answer was a spreadsheet assembled by a quality engineer over several days per submission.
Encode the device modules as reviewer rules.
Each of the twenty-four device modules became a path-based reviewer rule with a required approval count, so the right owners are assigned automatically and the merge stays blocked until the rule is satisfied.
Signed commits were enforced on protected branches, making the signature a property of the history rather than a claim about it.
Approval evidence stopped being a project and became an export.
Every merge carries signed approval.

Submission evidence is generated per release from the platform itself, with reviewer, rationale and signature attached to each change.
