Attribution Pathways

The responsibility, contribution, causality and revocation pathway that connects FieldTrace evidence to Hub assurance.

Attribution Pathway diagram

Attribution logic

ResponsibilityWhich actor, organisation or role is accountable for the evidence, action or claim.

Contribution and causalityHow evidence supports a claim without turning correlation into automatic approval.

Pathway integrityWhether the route from source evidence to reliance remains unbroken, versioned and reviewable.

FieldTrace cross-link

FieldTrace evidence becomes institutionally useful only when it remains attributable through the Hub: FieldTrace → Evidence Map → Attribution → Assurance.
