Turn monitoring signals into action

A creditworthiness system's scores drop after an upstream data change.

A dashboard shows a sudden distribution shift.

Before you read / Think it through

In “Turn monitoring signals into action”, what would you check or do first?

Pause and form your answer, then compare the reasoning. This reflection is not scored.

Compare the reasoning

Compare the signal with thresholds and begin triage.

The ideas below give you a method for this decision. Then work through the rest of this case and try the decisions yourself.

Monitoring is part of the lifecycle

Article 72 requires an appropriate post-market monitoring system.

Actively collect and analyse relevant performance information.

In the workplace

A complaint inbox alone may miss silent failures. Include planned signals from deployers, tests, incidents and changed operating conditions.

Remember this

Connect the plan to technical documentation and risk management.

The workplace case
YOUR CASE / MONITORING AFTER RELEASE

A high-risk creditworthiness system starts producing unusually low scores after an upstream data-format change. A deployer reports that eligible applicants were rejected, including a cluster from one region. The provider has not yet established the cause. The support team proposes waiting for the monthly dashboard before escalating.

Quick reference / five key ideas
Monitoring is part of the lifecycle
Connect the plan to technical documentation and risk management.
Signals and thresholds
Define thresholds as project controls and revisit their validity.
Triage and containment
Apply proportionate containment while preserving evidence.
Serious-incident criteria
Consider qualifying fundamental-rights infringements and serious property or environmental harm.
Provider reporting clocks
Shorter clocks apply to specified categories.
