Self-Service & Delegation

Define owners, approval paths and acceptance criteria for delegated identity self-service.

Overview

Delegated self-service and identity lifecycle actions are often run without assigned owners, clear decision rights or agreed acceptance criteria. Informal approval paths and undefined audit expectations make verification difficult and increase the risk of inconsistent access and compliance findings.

Self-Service & Delegation assigns owners, defines decision rights and formalises approval paths, and sets acceptance and audit criteria so delegated tasks are accountable and outcomes measurable. The scope is limited to governance for delegated and self-service identity tasks and excludes operational runbooks, routine service activities, project delivery and domains outside this remit.
