Decision Timelines
Structured records of how each part-evidence review progressed from initial observation through evaluation to final acceptance or rejection.
What Is a Decision Timeline?
A decision timeline captures the chronological sequence of events in a part-evidence review. From the moment a part is printed and inspected to the point where a team formally accepts or rejects the outcome, every step is logged with timestamps, reviewer notes, and supporting evidence.
Each timeline entry includes the observation date, the reviewer responsible, the technical finding, and whether the finding supported or challenged the acceptance criteria. This structured approach ensures that future teams can trace exactly why a decision was made and what evidence was considered.
