Evidence Sufficiency

The standard by which Evalio judges whether the information provided about a role or decision is complete and consistent enough to support a governed output.

Evidence sufficiency is the posture a workflow takes toward its inputs before it produces an output. Rather than silently absorbing thin or inconsistent information, Evalio flags where the evidence is incomplete, contradictory, or describes the jobholder rather than the role — so a weak input never becomes a confident-looking output.

Sufficiency is about the evidence, not the conclusion. A sufficient evidence base does not guarantee a particular grade, structure, or finding; it means the inputs are complete and consistent enough that a governed output can be produced and reviewed responsibly.

Sufficiency is assessed against what a workflow needs, not against a fixed quantity of text. A short, precise role description can be sufficient where a long but ambiguous one is not.

Evidence

Evalio-specific meaning

The governed posture that flags incomplete or inconsistent inputs rather than absorbing them into a confident-looking output.

Not to be confused with

A quality score for the output, or a fixed word count of input.

Usage note

Evidence sufficiency describes input quality; it is not a quality score for the output and does not expose how inputs are weighted internally.

Public-safe boundary

Sufficiency describes input quality; it does not reveal how inputs are weighted.
