Before you start

  • You have created an assessment in draft state (see guide 04).
  • Documents are connected and in Processed state (see guide 02).
  • You have Reviewer or Admin permissions.

Steps

Starting the pipeline

  1. Open the assessment you want to run. If it is in draft state, you will see a Run Assessment button on the summary page.
  2. Click Run Assessment. The assessment state changes from draft to in_progress and the agentic pipeline begins.

What happens during a run

  1. The pipeline processes your documents through multiple stages automatically. A typical full assessment takes approximately 30 minutes, depending on the number of documents and criteria.

  1. The live progress display shows each pipeline stage and its status:
    StageWhat it does
    IngestionReads and normalises all connected documents.
    IndexingChunks document text and builds the vector index for retrieval.
    Criterion MatchingFor each criterion in the framework, retrieves the most relevant document passages using semantic search.
    ScoringThe AI evaluates matched passages against each criterion and assigns a RAG (Red/Amber/Green) score with rationale and citations.
    Finding GenerationIndividual findings are created for each scored criterion, including evidence references and confidence levels.
    Quality ChecksCross-references findings for consistency, flags low-confidence scores, and validates citation integrity.
    AggregationRolls up criterion-level scores into category summaries and overall assessment metrics.
    CompletionFinalises all results and transitions the assessment to completed state.

You can leave and come back

  1. The pipeline runs server-side. You do not need to keep the browser open. Close the tab, log out, or work on other assessments — nothing is lost. When you return, the progress view picks up where it left off.

Understanding assessment states

  1. Every assessment is in one of three states:
    StateMeaningWhat you can do
    DraftAssessment is created but the pipeline has not started.Edit configuration, connect documents, start the run.
    In ProgressThe agentic pipeline is actively processing.Monitor progress, but you cannot edit the assessment configuration.
    CompletedAll criteria have been scored and findings are ready.Review findings, create actions, generate reports.
    FailedThe pipeline encountered an unrecoverable error.Investigate the error message, fix the issue, and retry.

Handling a completed assessment

  1. When the pipeline finishes, the assessment moves to completed state. You will see:
    • A summary of total criteria assessed, RAG distribution, and coverage.
    • All findings are now available in the Results and Review Queue pages.
    • The assessment is ready for human review.

Handling a failed assessment

  1. If the pipeline fails:
    • Check the error message on the progress view for details (e.g. document processing failure, service timeout).
    • Common fixes: re-sync documents to resolve file errors, check SharePoint permissions, or contact your admin.
    • Click Retry to restart the pipeline from the failed stage.

  • Review scored results: Understanding Results (forthcoming)
  • Drill into individual findings: Finding Detail & Review (forthcoming)

Common questions

Q: Can I run multiple assessments at the same time? Yes. Each assessment runs its own independent pipeline. You can start several assessments and monitor them all from the dashboard’s Running Assessments panel. Q: What if I add new documents while an assessment is running? Documents added during a run will not be included in the current assessment. Wait for the run to complete, re-sync your documents, then run the assessment again to include the new files. Q: How accurate is the “30 minutes” estimate? It depends on the document set size and the framework. Small assessments (5-10 documents, 30 criteria) may complete in 10-15 minutes. Large assessments (100+ documents, 200+ criteria) may take an hour or more. The live progress display shows real-time stage completion and estimated time remaining.
