MarketLink CMS EDE requirements traceability

From requirement to disposition.

A program-facing view that connects every CMS/EDE requirement source to its Agile plan, controlled delivery lane, test case, and evidence disposition — with human-owned gates the whole way.

Evidence run path Source to proof
  1. 01 CMS source

    Requirement, toolkit, control, FIT row, or change request.

  2. 02 Agile plan

    Epic, sprint lane, backlog item, owner role, acceptance criteria.

  3. 03 Controlled delivery

    Screen, API, workflow, control, data, notice, or integration behavior.

  4. 04 Proof and release

    Test kit, case ID, security gate, readiness state, open gap, and disposition.

Canonical AI SDLC lifecycle

One seven-phase lifecycle connects Agile artifacts, agentic execution, and release controls.

The traceability matrix is aligned to the WHPS AI SDLC, an Agile framework adapted for agentic delivery. The method keeps product ownership, architecture review, security validation, test evidence, and release authority visible at the right review altitude.

01 Define / Classify

Business outcome, CMS scope, data sensitivity, owner role, risk tier, and approval depth.

02 Decompose / Plan

Epics, backlog items, sprint lanes, acceptance criteria, dependencies, and Definition of Done.

03 Architect / Secure

Data flow, integration path, trust boundary, threat model, design review, and control alignment.

04 Build / Integrate

Platform functions, APIs, UI behavior, notices, controls, and controlled delivery lanes.

05 Validate / Test

FIT cases, UAT capture, regression checks, accessibility, security scans, and remediation evidence.

06 Package Evidence

Evidence index, control mapping, integrity state, open gaps, and reviewer disposition.

07 Release / Operate

Named approvals, export readiness, rollback path, archive discipline, monitoring, and change control.

Traceability coverage

Every visible row maps to a CMS source, Agile backlog lane, AI SDLC gate, test kit, and evidence reference.

This is intentionally a traceability view, not an evidence repository. The matrix keeps the assurance chain visible while raw evidence remains in the controlled repository for authorized review and archival control.

Traceability link coverage

Rows with source, backlog, test, and evidence references.

Disclosure boundary Requirements, Agile artifacts, controls, tests, functions, and evidence only.

This view is limited to requirement sources, Agile backlog, platform functions, test coverage, evidence references, audit disposition, and open gaps.

Evidence posture Reference controlled evidence. Do not publish raw evidence.

The matrix shows readiness metadata and reviewer state; source artifacts remain in the controlled evidence repository under the named evidence owner and release authority.

Evidence completion

Traceability is complete; auditor evidence readiness is a separate status.

The toolkit-driven traceability matrix can be complete while final evidence remains in capture and review. Evidence completion below reflects export-ready auditor evidence, not mapped rows or supporting material held in the controlled repository.

-- Export-ready evidence
-- Review candidates
-- Pending UAT capture
-- Source pending
--%
Auditor evidence completion

Export-ready evidence disposition.

Current posture Loading evidence readiness...

Evidence readiness will separate current review candidates, pending UAT capture, and source-pending scope.

Enrollment evidence Pending full enrollment capture

The final packet still needs a current full enrollment walkthrough and independent reviewer disposition before the evidence package can be marked export-ready.

Program management status view

A familiar Agile status layout without losing requirement-to-proof traceability.

This gives project management, product, QA, and program leadership the table view they expect: requirement area, backlog status, testing posture, evidence status, dependencies, risks, and next actions.

Overall traceability status Loading...

Coverage reflects traceability references, not final auditor evidence completion.

Current UAT references --

Metadata references held against the controlled evidence record.

Evidence in review --

Current review candidate still subject to independent disposition and export-readiness approval.

Source confirmation --

Items requiring source or scope confirmation before export.

Requirements traceability matrix

Search from requirement source to function, test case, and evidence disposition.

Each row is built for review: CMS source, Agile epic, sprint lane, backlog item, AI SDLC gate, acceptance criteria, platform function, test kit, case ID, evidence reference, audit disposition, and open gap.

Actions, dependencies, and risks

Traceability is established; remaining work is evidence capture, source confirmation, and final disposition.

Traceability readiness and final evidence completion are separate review states. The matrix shows the path; the open items show what remains before export-ready auditor submission.
