An adoption map for architects and leaders — from enterprise reality to governed AI-assisted work through Role Assistants, with proof organized by business resources and capabilities in Evidence Fabrix (not chat threads).
Business value vs enabling pillars
| Band | Pillars | Adoption question |
|---|---|---|
| Business value | Role Assistants, Evidence Fabrix | What outcomes and proof do we need? |
| Enabling | Enterprise Knowledge, Operational Trust | What data and controls make those outcomes safe? |
Build and certify Connected Systems and Business Entities first. Role Assistants consume governed capabilities only after Operational Trust certifies scope.

Evidence Fabrix — resource-based operating model
Evidence Fabrix answers audit and improvement questions in business terms:
| Question | Evidence anchor |
|---|---|
| What resource was involved? | Business Entity + resourceType (deal, document, customer) |
| Which governed action ran? | Capability key (deal:read, document:search) |
| Who was accountable? | Role Assistant + active business role |
| What was the outcome? | Task completion signal — not conversation volume |
| What should we improve? | Capability evidence, role evidence, knowledge findings |

Principles for rollout
- Start with high-value roles and recurring tasks tied to certified resource types — not generic chat.
- Require certification (operations, trust, governance) before broad Role Assistant adoption on a scope.
- Treat governed capabilities as the only execution surface for AI — never raw vendor APIs.
- Measure success with outcomes and resource-linked evidence, not message counts.
- Keep humans in authority — Content Review, approval gates, and policy remain even as skill levels rise.
- Expand scope only when Evidence Fabrix shows repeatable success on the current capability set.
Decision gates before expansion
Before a Role Assistant gains new capabilities or Business Entities:
- Integration certified for that scope (three pillars + lifecycle)
- Agent metadata and business semantics complete (
verify-trustnotnotTrusted) - Governance sign-off on dimensions, protection, and Content Review rules where documents are involved
- Operator runbook for failure, escalation, and evidence review
Skipping a gate moves risk from controlled platform behavior to ad hoc prompts and manual API use.
Who does what (steady state)
| Role | Evidence Fabrix lens |
|---|---|
| Executive sponsor | Outcome metrics by capability and role — not chat analytics |
| Enterprise architect | Resource/capability taxonomy and certification rhythm |
| Integrator | Manifest truth for entities, capabilities, Content Review rules |
| Security / governance | Dimensions, protection, certification sign-off |
| Business operator | Task outcomes, steward queues, escalation |
| Platform operator | Re-certify triggers after vendor or policy change |

Limits
Skill levels, promotion rules, and impact dashboards depend on your AI Fabrix release and tenant configuration. This page describes the adoption model — not your tenant's certification profile or live Role Assistant catalog.
