# OUT-10 Fairness monitoring in production

Domain: OUT Output Integrity & Supply Chain · HI-AAF v1.3 · Public review · https://humanintel.net/standard/out/out-10

Fairness metrics defined under SPC-09 are monitored in production. Material drift in disparity metrics triggers re-assessment under Domain 2 and the change-management process.

Fairness metrics established during pre-deployment evaluation under SPC-09 are monitored continuously in production. Material drift in disparity metrics, measured against documented thresholds, triggers re-assessment under Domain 2 and the change-management process under GOV-05. This control ensures that fairness is not a one-time gate but a continuous obligation.

## Maturity

- L1 Ad hoc: Controls exist informally; documentation is incomplete; no consistent review.
- L2 Documented: Controls are written down; ownership is assigned; review cadence is defined.
- L3 Operated: Controls are followed in practice; evidence is collected; deviations are tracked. Published criterion for OUT-10: Fairness metrics are monitored in production; drift thresholds are documented; at least one monitoring cycle has been completed; no material drift has occurred or drift has been addressed through re-assessment.
- L4 Measured: Control effectiveness is measured against documented thresholds; trends are reported.
- L5 Continuously Improved: Controls evolve based on incident learning; maturity gains are evidenced over time.

## Evidence an assessor asks for

- Fairness metrics are monitored in production.
- Drift thresholds are documented.
- At least one monitoring cycle has been completed.
- No material drift has occurred or drift has been addressed through re-assessment.

## Framework mappings

- NIST AI RMF: MEASURE 3.3, MANAGE 3.2
- SOC 2 (TSC): CC1.1
- EU AI Act: Art. 10(2), Art. 10(5)
- Singapore: AI Verify Fairness

Mappings are directional: meeting this control evidences but does not by itself satisfy the external requirement.
