1. Map controls to workflow stages

Define where approvals, attestations, and exceptions must occur in each workflow. Keep controls close to the decision point.

2. Require traceable change history

3. Run quarterly control walkthroughs

Conduct walkthrough reviews with operations and compliance leads to verify controls still match current business practices.
