Canonical Definition

Decision Origin Integrity Module (DOIM) defines the structural
conditions under which decisions, decision sources, decision
initiators, decision authorities, decision proposals, decision
approvals, and decision-origin relationships remain attributable,
identifiable, traceable, governable, reconstructable, reviewable,
and operationally valid throughout the decision lifecycle.

DOIM governs decision origin.

The module establishes the integrity conditions required to
determine where a decision originated, who initiated the decision,
which authority enabled the decision, and whether the origin of the
decision remains legitimate and governable.

Module Operational Role

DOIM defines the decision-origin governance layer of DAS.

Its role is to preserve visibility into the source of decisions.

Module Operational Space

DOIM governs:

• decision origin
• decision-source attribution
• decision initiation
• decision provenance
• decision-authority origin
• decision ownership origin
• approval-source identification
• decision governance

The module applies wherever governance requires reconstruction
of decision origins.

Module Function

The module applies wherever systems must preserve:

• identifiable decision sources
• traceable decision origins
• reconstructable decision history
• accountable decision initiation
• governance-valid decision attribution
• operationally valid decision provenance

Its function is to ensure that governance can determine who
initiated a decision and under what authority the
decision originated.

Minimum Implementation Framework

1. Define the Decision Origin Object

The organization must define which decision environments
require origin governance.

This may include:

• organizational structures
• management systems
• boards
• governance frameworks
• contractor environments
• AI governance systems
• Human-AI decision environments
• operational decision systems

2. Define Decision Origin Conditions

The system must define the conditions under which decision
origin remains valid.

This includes:

• decision-source requirements
• attribution requirements
• authority requirements
• legitimacy requirements
• governance requirements
• decision-origin conditions

3. Define Origin Degradation Detection Logic

The system must define how decision-origin failures are identified.

This may include:

• unidentified decision-makers
• undocumented decision initiation
• authority ambiguity
• hidden decision origins
• governance-blind decisions
• unverifiable decision sources

4. Define Operational Response or Governance Logic

The system must define governance logic for
decision-origin failures.

Governance response may include:

• decision review
• source verification
• governance intervention
• decision reconstruction
• corrective actions
• decision reassessment
• operational invalidation where required

5. Preserve Traceability & Restrict Invalid Conditions

The system must preserve reconstructable traceability of:

• decision sources
• decision initiations
• governance reviews
• validation activities
• intervention procedures
• resulting decision states

A decision-accountability environment must not remain origin-valid
if materially significant decision relationships cannot be
attributed, reconstructed, reviewed, validated, or governed.

Use Case 1 — Executive Decision Environment

Scenario

A strategic decision leads to a major operational outcome, and
governance must determine where the decision originated.

Application

DOIM reconstructs the decision source, initiating authority,
and decision-origin pathway.

Result

Governance gains visibility into the origin of the decision.

Use Case 2 — Human-AI Decision Environment

Scenario

An AI-assisted governance environment produces recommendations that
influence operational decisions.

Application

DOIM reconstructs who initiated the decision process, who approved
it, and which authority enabled it.

Result

Governance gains visibility into decision origins across
intelligent operational ecosystems.

Canonical Closing Statement

Decision Origin Integrity Module (DOIM) defines the structural
conditions under which decisions, decision sources, decision
initiators, decision authorities, decision proposals, decision
approvals, and decision-origin relationships remain attributable,
identifiable, traceable, governable, reconstructable, reviewable,
and operationally valid throughout the decision lifecycle.

A decision cannot be governed if its origin cannot be identified.
Decision Origin Integrity therefore becomes a foundational condition
of trustworthy decision accountability governance.
