The SBG Standard™

Confidence Isn't Evidence.

The SBG Standard™ is not “the homepage loaded, ship it.” It's a disciplined process applied before handoff — appropriate to the scope of each project.

The process

Build → Verify

Build→
Inspect→
Test→
Break→
Fix→
Retest→
Verify

We break things on purpose, then fix them, then retest — so production isn't the first place a failure is discovered.

According to scope

What Verification May Include

  • Requirements verification
  • Implementation / source review
  • Functional testing
  • Authentication review
  • Authorization / data-isolation review
  • Data-integrity checks
  • Integration verification
  • Responsive / mobile review
  • Error / failure-state testing
  • Regression testing
  • Performance sanity review
  • Production-readiness review
  • Final verification
  • Known-limitations documentation
  • Version / commit provenance

Evidence states

We Never Convert Unknown Into PASS

These are the public evidence states SBG uses to explain verification outcomes. The underlying project record may preserve additional operational detail, but unknown or unavailable evidence is never quietly turned into a pass.

VERIFIEDTested with evidence.
CLIENT-CONFIRMEDBusiness fact supplied or confirmed by the customer.
THIRD-PARTY DEPENDENTBehavior depends on a system outside SBG control.
KNOWN LIMITATIONUnderstood and accepted limitation.
NOT VERIFIEDEvidence could not be established.
FAILEDVerification demonstrated a problem.
NOT APPLICABLEDoes not apply to the project.

A known limitation doesn't automatically mean something is broken.

It means we know about a boundary, you understand it, and the app can still be used as agreed.

Example: A feature works normally in the United States, but the outside service it relies on is not available in every country. The app is working as designed; that feature simply has a known boundary.

Because “it loaded when I clicked it” is not an engineering standard.

The SBG Standard™ is SBG Software Services’ internal methodology and service framework. The mark identifies the name as a brand term; it is not a government approval, certification, or registered-trademark claim.
