Independent Software Delivery Assurance

Verify what was actually
delivered across stories, code, tests, and deployments.

Verityx correlates work items, commits, pull requests, validation evidence, and release signals to produce reviewable delivery findings and exportable evidence packs for vendor assurance, invoice review, and internal governance.

Built for teams responsible for delivery assurance

CIOs, PMOs, vendor governance teams, transformation leaders, and engineering executives reviewing software delivery claims.

Business Case

What Verityx makes visible.

Every enterprise software engagement carries delivery risk. Verityx makes that risk visible before it becomes a commercial problem.

Overpayment risk

Identify unsubstantiated effort claims before approving change requests or final invoices.

Dispute cycle time

From months of manual forensics to reviewable findings in days, not quarters.

Weak delivery evidence

Replace assumptions about completion status with verifiable traceability from story to production.

Executive uncertainty

Give CIOs and PMOs a factual basis for vendor conversations instead of anecdotal concerns.

Case Study

Enterprise PLM Platform — Vendor Delivery Review

A mid-market manufacturer engaged Verityx to independently assess delivery claims from their outsourced PLM platform vendor. The engagement had been running for 18+ months with growing concerns about delivery quality, but no objective evidence to support or refute those concerns.

What Verityx Found

Acceptance criteria gap: 64.3% of user stories had no testable acceptance criteria, making it impossible to objectively determine whether delivery was complete.

Defect reclassification: 144 items categorised by the vendor as chargeable change requests were identified as defect fixes against original scope — representing significant overpayment risk.

Traceability breakdown: Only 15.2% of commits could be traced to specific user stories. 41.1% of all commits were merge commits with no functional content.

Scope feasibility: 12 features the vendor had not delivered were independently built and deployed, demonstrating that the original scope was technically achievable.

Outcome

The client received a structured evidence pack that transformed vendor governance conversations from subjective concern to quantified, audit-ready findings. The evidence supported a formal challenge of approximately 42% of submitted vendor man-days and provided the factual basis for commercial renegotiation.

Client details anonymised. Engagement conducted under NDA. Metrics verified against source systems.

Audit Modules

Three evidence layers.

Each module independently analyses a different dimension of delivery evidence, producing reviewable findings with full traceability.

Delivery Traceability

Maps every user story to its associated commits, pull requests, and deployment records. Identifies stories marked as complete with no observable code evidence.

Inputs

User stories, Git commits, PR merges, deployment logs

Output

Traceability matrix with linkage status per story

Sprint Substantiation

Compares claimed sprint delivery against verifiable output. Evaluates burndown integrity, scope changes, and the ratio of claimed effort to deployable artefacts.

Inputs

Sprint plans, velocity claims, change requests

Output

Per-sprint substantiation scorecard with evidence gaps

Acceptance Criteria Validation

Checks whether test artefacts substantiate completion claims for each acceptance criterion. Flags anomalous patterns such as identical test data or missing execution timestamps.

Inputs

Acceptance criteria, test results, E2E evidence

Output

Coverage report with confidence scores per criterion

Scope and Limits

What Verityx does not do.

Verityx helps teams review delivery claims against observable engineering evidence. It does not replace governance, commercial judgment, or legal review, and it does not infer misconduct from missing evidence alone.

Does not write to your systems

All integrations are strictly read-only. Verityx cannot modify code, stories, test data, or any artefact in your environment.

Does not replace delivery governance

Verityx augments your existing governance process with evidence. It does not replace PMO oversight, vendor management, or contractual controls.

Does not make payment decisions

Findings inform commercial conversations. Verityx does not approve, reject, or hold payments — those decisions remain with your team.

Does not infer intent from missing evidence

Where evidence is absent or ambiguous, items are flagged for human review rather than automatically classified as failures or misconduct.

Assurance Workflow

Connect. Correlate. Review. Report.

01

Connect sources

Link your Azure DevOps, Jira, GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket repositories. Verityx operates with read-only access — it never writes to your systems.

02

Correlate evidence

Verityx correlates every user story, commit, pull request, test artefact, and deployment record. Evidence chains are mapped from requirement through to production.

03

Review exceptions

Unsupported, partially substantiated, or inconsistent delivery signals are surfaced with full evidence context. Every finding links back to source artefacts for human review.

04

Export findings

Generate an audit-ready summary and evidence pack. Suitable for commercial review, vendor discussion, or internal governance reporting.

NEW

Rapid Vendor Audit

A fixed-fee forensic review for software deliveries where evidence quality, completion claims, or invoice readiness need independent assessment.

Best suited to active disputes, invoice reviews, delivery concerns before escalation, and high-risk programmes where leadership needs a defensible evidence pack quickly.

Typical scopeOne project or workstream (up to 150 stories).
TurnaroundWithin 5 working days from confirmed source access.
OutputExecutive summary, evidence-backed findings, review notes, and exportable report pack.
InvestmentFixed fee from £5,000. Scoped after initial conversation.

Typical use cases: invoice review, disputed sprint delivery, weak acceptance evidence, governance escalation.

Fixed fee from £5,000 · No platform commitment required

Security & Controls

Built for enterprise trust requirements.

Defensible findings, auditable methods, and controlled data handling.

Read-only by design

Verityx connects with read-only permissions. It cannot modify code, stories, test data, or any artefact in your environment.

Tenant-contained processing

Audit data is processed in isolated tenants. No cross-tenant access, no shared storage, no data commingling.

Human-reviewable evidence chain

Every finding links to specific source artefacts — commits, PRs, test records — with timestamps and identifiers.

Documented methodology

Scoring logic, verification thresholds, and exception criteria are documented and available for review before engagement.

SOC 2 Type II roadmap

Current controls are mapped to the Trust Services Criteria framework. Formal certification is underway.

Configurable data retention

Retention policies are configurable. Audit data can be purged on demand or set to auto-expire after a defined period.

Origin

Verityx was built after a real enterprise software audit exposed a major gap between reported delivery and verifiable engineering evidence. The problem was not a lack of dashboards; it was a lack of defensible traceability when commercial decisions depended on delivery claims.

Verityx exists to give technology leaders a calmer, more reviewable way to examine what was delivered, what is weakly supported, and what requires further scrutiny before payment, escalation, or acceptance.
