Clear ownership. Shared evidence. Context that travels with the work.
DECISIONS THAT MATTER
Human control
Release authority stays with the designated people. QA will provide independent findings and recommendations to support their decision.

What stays with the department
Acceptance criteria, exact test evidence, defects, release recommendations and the authority behind promotion decisions.
Parking preserves the work, history and configuration. Reactivation brings the same organization back into focus.
