Become a founding endorser.
The Decision Assurance Council is in formation. We are recruiting a small, cross-industry founding cohort to shape the discipline from the start — its open standard, its lexicon, and its body of knowledge.
Practitioners who run the rooms where decisions are made.
The standard should be shaped by the people who use it. We are convening a deliberately cross-industry cohort so no single field's blind spots define the discipline.
Enterprise & business architecture
Architecture Review Board (ARB) leaders and architects who govern consequential technology decisions.
Risk & audit
Practitioners who must be able to prove a decision was sound, after the fact.
Finance, healthcare & government
Leaders in regulated, high-consequence settings where assurance is not optional.
Shape it, review it, adopt it.
- Endorse the principles Add your name to the founding cohort that stands behind the discipline's founding principles.
- Shape the standard Review and comment on the Decision Assurance Levels as the specification moves from v0.1 toward a ratified v1.0.
- Join a working group Optionally help draft a specific artifact — the standard, the maturity model, or a sector profile.
- Adopt and cite Use the open standard and lexicon in your own decision-making body, and cite them.
No endorsers are listed yet — by design.
The founding cohort is forming. We publish names and words only when they are real and approved. The Council is pre-launch and the discipline is in formation, so this page shows an honest invitation rather than a roster. If the principles describe how you already think, we would like you among the founding endorsers — and, with your written consent, your name among the first listed here.
Add your name.
Tell us who you are and the body you help govern. We will follow up personally as the founding cohort convenes.
Note while the Council is pre-launch: the intake below is provisional. Submitting opens your own email application addressed to a provisional inbox — council@decisionassurance.org — which is not yet confirmed as monitored. The most reliable way to reach us today is to send that email directly.
