Assess
Examine how machine assistance is currently entering professional work, where material decisions are gated, and what the existing record can demonstrate.
For architecture firms
A methodology has value only when it survives actual practice.
Reasonable Control supports firms that want to move from general AI guidance to a defined, documented method appropriate to their services, staffing, jurisdictions, and existing quality-control system.
Implement
Translate the Guide into a firm-specific policy, task classification, verification workflow, tool register, and record system sized to the practice.
Teach
Give principals and project teams a common working definition of responsible control, verification, provenance, and the limits of machine assistance.
Begin with the existing condition
Assess the gap between the firm's stated control and what its records can show.
The Guide is published without charge, and conformance requires retention of no consultant. Read the full author disclosure at § 0.7.
