An administrator troubleshooting a pilot needs to reconstruct why a particular modelling decision was made months earlier. Where should that reasoning have been recorded?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
You need to put that reasoning in the model's evidence record, alongside its factsheet, as part of ongoing lifecycle documentation. Code comments may show how it was built, but the evidence record is where the why lives.
Full Explanation
Evidence records are designed to capture the decisions made about a model over time, which is exactly what makes reconstruction possible later. The model's evidence record, alongside its factsheet, as part of ongoing lifecycle documentation, is the governed place for that reasoning. Personal calendar notes from that period are not part of the governed, shared record and are lost when the individual is unavailable. Training script comments only explain implementation, not governance rationale. Saying the reasoning does not need to be recorded anywhere is incorrect because reconstructing decisions is precisely what auditability requires. For the exam, locate decision rationale in the evidence record, not in informal or code-level notes.
